Business Tip: You ask, We answer…

Posted on by

We often get questioned: “What’s an RA?”
An “RA” is an abbreviation for “registered agent.” It is a mandatory “agent” of the corporation or LLC who is officially designated at the time that incorporation or registration documents are filed in accordance with state requirements. A Registered Agent will act as the representative for accepting Service of Process served upon the company within the jurisdiction of any state where the company conducts business, and will also forward any other official legal and tax correspondence from the state.

Thinking About Next Tax Season

Posted on by

Now that taxes are done for 2009, you may want to just put it all behind you and not worry about it again until next year.  However, tax savings are a year-round opportunity.  Businesses should work to maximize tax savings all year long so that next tax season is a good one.

There’s no time like the present to think about saving on taxes. Business tax deductions you should consider include the following:

  • Auto expenses
  • Expenses of going into business
  • Education expenses related to business or trade
  • Legal & professional fees
  • Business entertaining & travel
  • New equipment & software

The IRS states that any “ordinary and necessary” business expenses can be subtracted from your business income prior to being to taxed. The general rule is that as long as the expense is made for business (not personal) purposes, you can deduct it from your business income.

To ensure that you don’t miss large deductions that could save you a great deal of money, it is wise to consult with an income tax professional.  If you require professional assistance, we’re pleased to connect you with our network of professionals.  Click here to submit your request and you will be connected with CPAs in your area.

Is my Corporate/LLC Name Protected?

Posted on by

Customers often inquire whether the reservation and filing of a corporation protects the name of the business. While it may protect the business name with the Secretary of State in the state where the corporation or LLC is filed, it does not necessarily protect the name as a trademark.

Trademarks can include any words, phrases, symbols or designs that identify and distinguish the source of the goods. There are numerous advantages to securing federal registration of a trademark. Perhaps the most important advantage is that federally registered trademarks are national in scope, regardless of the actual geographic use of the mark. Hence, trademark protection will protect your business name, which is distinct from filing for a corporation or LLC with the Secretary of State.
