It is fair to assume that “Bill” (our working name of the widower) has a steady job and therefore steady income (no welfare). This is because otherwise he wouldn’t need insurance, he is already in deep trouble! Bill has two kids that in the next 10 years are both going to (likely) go to College. For that reason, the risk of (his) life loss and the kid’s exposure to financial hardship, life insurance products would be my only focus, i.e. I assume that auto and property insurance are already in place.

A client wants to know the difference between the tax treatment of a professional gambler and a normal taxpayer with gambling winning and losses.

The idea of beginning a tax on sugary drinks is nowhere near a new one. Many people immediately jump to soda whenever they hear this idea, and that’s where most people see the problem surrounding the sugary drink debate. I see the problem not with the products themselves but how they are abused to the point where they can become a problem to the consumer. Like most things, it’s all good in moderation but once you start to have three to four cans or bottles a day it can start to be an issue. Thats where this proposed tax is supposed to come in and save the day. Or so that’s what most of us have been told, and some of us believe. But maybe this new tax doesn’t need to have a place in our society.

One of the primary goals of the Cadillac tax is to reduce the growing costs of national health care (Lowry 2015). The government is hopeful that implementation of the Cadillac tax will reduce overall health care expenditures and impede the growth of health care costs by encouraging a change in consumer behavior through discouraging the provision and obtainment of overly generous health coverage plans (Herring, 2011). Generally, individuals who are insured spend greater amounts on health care than those who are not as they can consume greater amounts of healthcare with a lesser personal burden. In the case that the insurance provided to an individual is overly generous, it encourages over spending on health care due to the fact that they incur a only a portion of costs of consumption. In this manner, the consumption of an inefficient amount of health care is perpetuated by the provision of overly generous health care coverage. This inefficiency and associated increase in demand for healthcare causes the price of healthcare to rise, which exacerbates the undesirable growth in national health care costs (Gravelle, 2015). The Cadillac tax aims to discourage the provision and obtainment of overly generous health care coverage by employers in an effort to decrease inefficient over-consumption of health care and stagnate the growth in healthcare costs. The intent of the Cadillac tax is to alter consumer behavior to decrease the provision of unnecessarily

In the 1980s the adult obesity rate in America was 12.8%, it has nearly tripled, now at a whopping 34.9%. That means that “78.6 million of U.S adults are obese” (Adult Obesity Facts). With obesity rates on the rise should we allow the government to control our diets? Based on the information gathered it seems like it is the worst choice for the U.S. If I were in a position in which I had to choose between letting and not letting the government control my diet, not letting the government control my diet is the obvious choice. Not only for my body, but for the freedoms that would be restricted. In this paper we will see the why and why we shouldn’t let the government control our diets, and how it can or cannot work.

You have to submit a report to the IRS if you have offshore financial accounts with an aggregate value in excess of $10,000 at any time during the calendar year. The deadline for filing the FinCEN Form 114, Report of Foreign Bank and Financial Accounts (FBAR) is June 30 every year. Failure to file can incur huge civil or criminal penalties on those accounts.

Now, the important thing is, you have a legal right to appeal against the IRS decisions if you feel the penalty has been arbitrarily assessed. In this article, we will

There are several stances on the argument on whether or not sugary drinks should be taxed. Sugary drinks should not be taxed because it will not stop people from buying them, it isn’t the only answer to health issues, and it may even hurt small businesses. Putting a tax on sugar filled drinks will not stop everybody from buying them. In the article, “Soda Pop: To Tax Or Not To Tax” by Sherry on fudiet.com it explains how the tax would not greatly impact the consuption of these drinks, “Thirty three states now have taxes on sodas but no evidence currently exists that taxes have impacted consumption. It is suggested that taxes have been too small to impact consumption...The problem is we do not know how large a tax needs to be to be effective. Statistical models project that 20% tax would have an effect, but this has not been tested. More evidence of the amount of tax is needed and

The Debate around Sugar Tax has become pivotal in regard to policies made within the Government. In Robin Grieve’s Article; What would a Sugar Tax Achieve, he identifies the main problem with the sugar tax is that, “Without knowing what rate of tax will be imposed no one can know how consumers will react and what effect it will have on consumption and therefore if it is a good idea or not.” The understanding of the problem comes from a Neo-Liberal perspective, as Grieve supports the idea that nothing should be done to intervene with the idea of Consumer Sovereignty. Various possible Policy Initiatives could result from this understanding of the problem, these could include things such as “Open Information” policies, and policies with the manufacturers company in regard to Bulk Sale. The understanding of the problem, due to not understanding the extent of the effect, doesn 't include the relation to obesity, and “Sugary Drink” consumption, and the idea that the Sugar Tax could do more harm than good in terms of the increase of consumption, and the replacing of healthier foods in order to still afford the sugar drinks. Alternative understanding of the issue could result in alternative policy initiative’s, for example, if there was an open information act in regard to suggested policies such as this, there would be greater focus on the idea of how it would affect health, rather than the economic market and global consumptions.

There has been recent debate concerning taxation on sugary products. Some claim that there are no real benefits of the proposal, I disagree.
