Based on the purposes of the U.S. federal income tax, a non-grantor trust is regarded as a separate taxpayer despite of whether it's domestic or foreign (Pfeifer, 2008). Generally, a non-grantor trust is taxed in similar approaches as individuals, with certain alterations. Similar to a non-resident alien, a non-grantor foreign trust will pay American income tax only on income and some gains from American sources. Furthermore, non-grantor foreign trusts are subject to taxation on income or gains that are effectively linked to an American trade or business.

The accuser had alleged that her supervisor constantly subjected her to sexual harassment both during and after business hours, on and off the employer's premises; she alleged that he forced her to have sexual intercourse with him on numerous occasions, fondled her in front of other employees, followed her into the women's restroom and exposed himself to her, and even raped her on several occasions.

Each of these jurisdictions fought for desegregation as a way to

The income earned by the U.S. individuals and corporations in the foreign countries or foreign source are taxed by the U.S. government, even though other countries also tax any income earned within their borders. To offset this double taxation of income by two different countries, the U.S. grants both individuals and corporations a foreign tax credit (FTC) that can be used to offset income taxes assessed by a foreign country on the income earned there (Foreign Tax Credit, FTC, n.d.). The FTC is allowable for foreign income taxes and other similar taxes, such as excess profit and war profit taxes. However, only income taxes qualify for the credit. The Value Added Taxes (VAT) and property, sales and severance taxes do not qualify, although they may be deductible.
