The Important of Travel Expense to Everyone



If we think that the business people are only need the travel expense management will think twice again. Everyone of us needs to have a proper way of managing the expenses that we have especially for those who goes on the trip all the time we are not only focusing for the business people but rather other people that we seen that we can’t mostly recognize that they need it they probably the political people the leaders of our country.

Even the leader of the free world has to be careful about how he allocates his dollars, especially now in this era of deep budget cuts. President Barack Obama has recently come under fire for his spending habits, as a matter of fact. By cutting White House tours as part of the federal government's sequester, he's made skeptics wonder if there might be other expenses he could trim down.

Charles Krauthammer, a nationally syndicated political columnist, appeared on Fox News recently to suggest one such trimming.

"The president's travel expenses alone for his golfing outing with Tiger Woods would pay for a year of White House visits," Krauthammer argued. "I suggest that perhaps he curtail the travel - or perhaps auction off a set of clubs."

Complaints about the president's travel are nothing new. Obama has been one of the most nomadic commanders-in-chief in our nation's history, venturing all over the globe in his first four-plus years in office. In 2012 he visited South Korea, Afghanistan, Myanmar and others, and in 2013, he has an Israel trip planned that could be extensive. The New York Times reported that Obama also planned to visit Jordan and the West Bank during his time in the Middle East - yet for some reason, his administration remains cryptic about the specific dates and locations of the president's trip.

Health Care Expense Management Taking its Difficultness



In the business world even a small business owners are facing the expense management and it always makes a challenge to the owners especially in now a days. One of the expense of the company is concerning the benefits that the company can give into the employees that they have some of them are the help benefits. In the any kind of the it is really required to have the health benefits for their employee but in the result some of the company are hard to handle for the expenses that they have.

According to the Affordable Care Act, companies with 50 employees or more now find themselves required to provide those employees with health insurance. For most of the business companies heads find this as a major problem in saving money especially if they are experiencing uncertain in the business.

Here is the article that I have read from Certify Blog that giving the best expense management online.

Rick Levi, a business owner in Des Moines, Iowa, was recently profiled in the Wall Street Journal because he is one example of an executive who can't find the funds to make ends meet under the new Obamacare mandate. Levi is 62 years old and struggling to keep his enterprise in business. The rise in healthcare costs certainly won't help, he told the newspaper - the premiums for all his employees will exceed half a million dollars, and he doesn't have that kind of money.

"I've never made a profit in any year of the company that has surpassed that amount," Levi said. "I don't make enough money."

For Levi and business owners like him, the alternative method is to pay a fine. Obamacare dictates that non-paying employers will be forced to hand over $2,000 for each full-time employee past a threshold of 30 - for Levi, that would mean a $144,000 penalty instead of $500,000 for providing insurance. It's a no-brainer.

It's no surprise that healthcare costs have been such a tremendous detriment to businesses' finances, as medical expenses have gone through the roof. According to data compiled by Bankrate, the rise has been sharp for two decades now - the average cost of healthcare was $2,854 per person per year as of 1990. By 2000, that number had risen to $4,878, and in 2010, it was a whopping $8,402.

Overall economic growth in the United States is not keeping pace with healthcare inflation. The yearly inflation rate between 2000 and 2010 was around 2.4 percent, while healthcare costs rose at a 6 percent clip, compounded annually.

Welcome to the Stressful Tax Season



When it comes to business there are so many challenges to tackle and need to surpass it and some of it are the expense management and have the difficultness in managing your taxes especially in today’s tax code. If you are a responsible individual paying your individual taxes is never been so stressful to do but how come if you are having a business even it is small based in the survey conducted most of the business owners hare having the hard time in paying their taxes.

In this society if you are having a small business you are responsible to pay for your taxes and also you are familiar for the different terms that they have. Tax are very important in the society especially in the government this is where most of the government money’s come from they uses the tax as the wages of all government employees all over the country and this is how the tax are moving in the government.

In the recent survey of National Federation of Independent Business saying that 90 percent of the Among the survey's findings was that 90 percent of those who small businesses have entirely given up on trying to understand the tax code, opting to pay professional tax preparers to file for them instead. Of those polled, 52 percent said that simplifying the tax code should be a top priority for the government.

Here is the excerpt of the said survey: "This survey clearly shows that small business owners believe the tax code is too complicated, too politically motivated, and inconsistent," NFIB tax counsel Chris Whitcomb said. "As federal lawmakers tackle the complex subject of comprehensive tax revision, this new data will give them needed clarity on the views of the small-business community." Business owners may be turning to tax preparers, but here's the kicker - the tax preparers are in just as much trouble. Especially now, considering the recent panic over the so-called "fiscal cliff," tax prep companies are struggling to work with the recent legislative changes. The IRS usually finalizes the code in November, but the fiscal cliff debate in Congress raged on into January, and it wasn't until February that all minor tweaks to the new code were completed. Then the tax software companies made their adjustments to account for the new rules, and now the tax preparation people finally get to sink their teeth into their clients' filings.
