So talks about S corporation and C corporation.
Back in the debates with Al Gore, G. W. Bush said that most small businesses were S corporations. That did not sound right to me, and other people also said so. I don't think it is correct. But S corporation does have its uses.
I think there are other classes, but it talks about C corporation, which I guess is what is used most.
Book does not say it is for California, but their HQ is in Berkeley. So it has the CA incorporation form. $100 fee. Also on form says something about $800 min annual tax! Yipes! To Franchise Tax Board.
I also know that this county has a business assets tax which is pretty steep and applies to EVERYTHING! Book does not talk about this.
CA incorporation form is ARTS-GS, issued by Secretary of State.

so about taxation, say Kim is the sole owner of a corporation. They get client revenue, and they pay their expenses. Say they also acquire some supply inventory and some equipment. Book says that that counts as corporate profits, even though no share holder dividends being paid. Taxed at 21%.
So much more I need to know and understand!
This kind of Administrative, Legal, and Accounting and Taxation stuff is prohibitive for most people, far too complex!
My organization though will deal with it and become expert in it.

But if you have multiple shareholders, you may need to have multiple directors.
I was unclear about this.
Now, I thought there used to rules against being a director of more than two corporations beyond a certain size. Anyone know about this?
Then before 2018 there was a corporate tax rate progression running from 15% to 38%.
Since 2018 it is a flat rate of 21%.
so if a corp acquires inventory, assets, or equipment, without thus drawing something else like a cash kitty down to offset it, then it profit and so it has to pay this 21% tax.
There will then be a depreciation schedule for existing assets and inventory.
Any way to acquire a big float of stuff and cash without having had to pay this 21% tax?? Not sure.
But a non-profit can be tax exempt, but this only applies to : charitable, scientific, educational, literary, religious, testing for public safety, fostering national or international sports competitions, preventing cruelty to children or animals.
Non-profits must be a discipline in and of themselves, no owners, must have written governance protocols. And then religion must be even more complex, specialized lawyers needed.
I also don't know how much the authorities care about transactions being done with cash.
I guess a start up getting equity funding does not have to pay tax on that, or on what it uses it for. But here we do have a business assets tax. Start up spending its equity funding, that is not profit.
I know there is some legal allowance for deducting the costs or red ink businesses, and even zero revenue businesses. But there are limits to this.
The one time I hired a professional tax preparer was for a 1/2 hour consultation about this. What he told me was very good, and it worked. He also recommended the J. K. Lasser guide for covering this. It did, and I had used other guides, but not that one.
This county also has tax on business assets, which covers everything, even leased buildings.
This stuff is all very complicated. For most people, this is the barrier to running a business the way that they want to.
For people like Kliener Perkins, they have the highest power attorneys around, Wilson and Sonsini.
For deduction personal income, as I know you can wipe away the first 50% by giving to charities, and think any of the above types of nonprofits. But to get to the second 50%, it has to be these Certified Conservation Charities. Sounds complex, but it means land conservation.
And I think the giving can be shares of stock, though there are strict rules for appraising the shares of nonpublic entities. But Warren Buffet wants to give away shares, I think to the Gates Foundation.

san_jose_guy - Commonly referred to as SJG this forum member may have some sort of mental illness and is usually mocked or ignored. SJG has a long history of posting incendiary comments including being pro-rape. His comments should NOT be taken in any way as legitimate.
What creates the busts are the booms.
The Official unemployment rate may be lower than it generally gets, but the official unemployment rate might be only about 25% of the actually jobless rate.
And then the underemployment rate is probably at least 70%
We should not be trading worker safety or union representation to create jobs. We should not be giving corporations tax breaks to create jobs.
That is just wrong headed, it is Supply Side Voodoo.
What we should have is UBI +Strong Public Housing Offering +Medicare For All +Free College.
And we should return to pre-Reagan taxation of top bracket 70%, and then since wealth taxes are even more progressive we should have that small one for asset portfolios over $50 Meg.
***********************
Now reading the above book, I find that it tells me massive amounts of stuff. But this is still only about 1% of what one would need to know to become a player in the Corporate and VC realm.
So be it, the going will be slow.
The most interesting thing I have found so far is this Section 179 Deduction. Your for profit corporation can plow back in up to $1 Meg per year, and pay no taxes on this!!
Now the threshold was crossed years ago in semiconductor manufacturing that the principle equipment, aligners, goes for over $1 Meg a piece.
https://www.evgroup.com/products/lithogr…
And $1 Meg is not buildings or jet aircraft. But for a starting out micro corp, $1 Meg per year tax free is a huge sum. Don't think it applies to building up a reserve kitty though.

Back door outfits becoming more common. I see this as a big plus. Slut wear should not just be something which needs to be taken off. And the back door should be encouraged.
Maybe after the first few rounds, time to get in the shower, then take it off of her.
In my observations, most strippers ITC go more for simplicity and little or nothing besides high heels and makeup, avoiding the real action uniform slut wear. Making too little use of even things like thigh high stockings.

So like we have here this Asian Americans for Community Involvement, which is mostly an umbrella non-profit, as they built this real neat high rise. Donations are tax deductible. Then it serves as the land lord for lots of other groups.
https://aaci.org/honorary/
Donating Stocks and Securites gives a deduction equal to full market value, subject to IRS limits for giving ( I think it is 50% of AIG ).
But this AACI building would still be subject to property taxes.

Again, Rosicrucian Park
https://www.sccassessor.org/index.php/al…
Okay, Rosicrucian Park is making two payments of about 5k per year. Previous year it was 2x 6k payments.
Because they are charging for Business Assets and personal property, some of the bill could be:
"The term "unsecured" simply refers to property that can be relocated and is not real estate. An unsecured property tax bill is usually for property such as aircraft, boats and business personal property. An unsecured property tax bill may also be for real property such as land in some cases. What makes this tax bill different from the secured tax bill is that the lien for taxes is against the owner of the property. If taxes are not paid a lien can be filed against the owner of the property."

Seems that ordinary tax exempt no profit is too.
https://www.irs.gov/charities-non-profit…
This is more fair.
So is there any advantage which religion has?
San Jose Rosicrucian Order AMORC is not a relgion. They have over $4 Meg of property. They pay taxes on $116k of something.
Says that non-profit also exempt from other property taxes, like buiness asset taxes, so I think.
So maybe this $116 is the inventory in their bookstore / gift shop, stuff which is being offered for sale?
Does anyone know the rules about these sorts of things?
Do Nonprofit Organizations Pay Property Taxes? ( Arizona )
https://yourbusiness.azcentral.com/nonpr…
"As long as they already have incorporated, nonprofit organizations often do not have to pay property taxes. Although it varies by location, many states, counties and municipalities make allowances for registered charitable organizations to either not pay property taxes or to have the property taxes they pay reimbursed. These exemptions, however, are rarely automatic. Often, a qualifying nonprofit must apply for property tax exemption or reimbursement every year."
"After attaining a tax exempt number from the IRS, a nonprofit must arrange with each property tax authority for exemption or reimbursement. Under most circumstances, tax-exempt status is granted to organizations that fill special roles in the community. As a result, some smaller nonprofits might gain exemption from municipal property taxes, but not county or state property taxes. Each level of government might have different criteria, and the criteria will vary depending on the state. As part of a nonprofit corporation's due diligence, it is critical to investigate the property tax rules for the area the nonprofit will occupy."
Lets look at the UU Church.

They are valuing this at $2,285,530. This is a huge underestimate!
So they are paying $14k twice per year and they are far behind!!!!
And a year ago it was just $1k twice per year. Don't know why the change.
This Unsecured Property Tax might be a different bill!
Exemptions: $2,056,977
Then I think they pay tax on:
$228,553
Some of their building is leased out as office space to a local charity.

They value the property at $956,592 (Gross Under Estimate! )
They say $6k of fixtures and $31k of personal property. I have no idea what this would be.
So they want two installments, each of $643.64
This is the lowest property tax I have seen to date.
Okay, but that tax if for the Secured Property, goes on APN.
For the Unsecured Property need the accessment number, not sure if I can get that.
"The term "unsecured" simply refers to property that can be relocated and is not real estate. An unsecured property tax bill is usually for property such as aircraft, boats and business personal property. An unsecured property tax bill may also be for real property such as land in some cases.

"The term "unsecured" simply refers to property that can be relocated and is not real estate. The tax is assessed against such things as business equipment, fixtures, boats and airplanes. If the unsecured tax is not paid, a personal lien is filed against the owner, not the property."
"The January 1 value is multiplied by the tax rate (usually 1% plus voter approved indebtedness). The unsecured tax rate is the prior year's secured rate."
Land: $2,707,863
Improvements: $24,264,316
Total: $26,972,179
So $26 Meg, gross underestimate, but it is not all land.
For some reason though they have to pay tax on $1,597,639
about secured taxes
"In order for the amount of your taxes to be determined, the County Assessor must first assess the value of your property as of January 1. Generally, the assessed value is the cash or market value at the time of purchase. This value increases not more than 2% per year until the property is sold or any new construction is completed, at which time it must be reassessed. For more information on how the assessed value is determined, see the County Assessor's website. After the Assessor has determined the property value, the County Controller applies the appropriate tax rates, which include the general tax levy, voter approved special taxes, and any city or district direct assessments. The general tax levy is determined in accordance with State Law and is limited to 1% assessed value of your property. After applying tax rates, the County Controller calculates the total tax amount. Finally, the Tax Collector prepares property tax bills based on the County Controller's calculations, distributes the bills, and then collects the taxes. Neither the County Board of Supervisors nor the Tax Collector determines the amount of taxes."

My county says that they use market values. But I feel that the values are too low, so comparisons will be screwed up.
So for my county, use $1 Meg value.
Yearly property tax $6,700.00
But I know that there are also additional parcel taxes in some places but not others.
It can be muni to muni.
I try other CA counties and the number comes up different, but not grossly so.
Try TX,
their counties can be 2 or 3 x the CA taxes.
Try NM
yes, lower than CA.
Yes, WV, DC, Delaware, Alabama, Hawaii ( I think most land is leased ) are the lowest, with Louisiana as the very lowest.
Sales tax
http://www.tax-rates.org/taxtables/sales…
Only Alaska, Oregon, New Hampshire, Delware, Montana, have no sales tax. But I also know that the exact rates vary county by county.
Income tax will of course be complex, CA very high.
http://www.tax-rates.org/taxtables/incom…
Alaska, Florida, Nevada, South Dakota, Texas, Wyoming, NO STATE INCOME TAX.
But all these matters are so complex. Why are these local churches and non-profits still having to pay property taxes, and how could they change this?

CA and Santa Clara County stuff included in above.
SJG
YMCA
1717 The Alameda
San Jose, CA 95126
^^^^ denies the address!
Try Planned Parenthood across the street:
1691 The Alameda, San Jose, CA 95126
^^^^ denies that too, WTF?
Second Harvest Food Bank
750 Curtner Ave, San Jose, CA 95125
(APN): 456-25-001
they are saying this property has zero value!
Document No: 11242946 Document Type: DEDICATION BY MAP
Maybe Second Harvest does not own it, just government gave them use of it?
Try something else!
Jubilee Christian Center, armpit of the entire county.
Now: Redemption Church
105 Nortech Pkwy, San Jose, CA 95134
Okay, I had to use advanced address search:
(APN): 015-44-004
SO they are placing it just under $17 Meg, and the exemptions exactly cover the value. So no tax. But don't know about the unsecured values.
But why are these other orgs having some value which is still getting taxed?

Let me look again at some key properties:
So trying again for the YMCA, I get
1717 The Alameda
Land: $2,129,429
Improvements: $4,771,493
Total: $6,900,922
and so they get a full exemption, for presumably zero tax for secured assets. Don't know about unsecured assets.
And so how about Planned Parenthood across the street:
So had to use advanced search, but got (APN): 261-18-047
so:
Land: $1,471,541
Improvements: $1,440,689
Total: $2,912,230
And the exemptions cover it.
So lets do a house:
1295 Naglee Ave
(APN): 261-14-032
so $620,000K( extreme under estimate), so $7k homeowner exemption.( don't know how this works) The the rest gets taxed.
So $4.4k tax twice per year, so a little more than 1%
How about Grace Community Services, American Baptist church, now turned into charity.
484 E. San Fernando at 10th St.
https://www.yelp.com/biz/grace-community…
484 E San Fernando St
467-25-099
So $1.2 meg total, all covered by exmeptions.
So why do the UU Church, AMORC, and St. Thomas Episcopal still pay some tax?

SJG
https://www.google.com/maps/@37.3160505,…
2400 Moorpark Ave
(APN): 282-02-037
Yes, grand total is covered by exemptions.
And total includes:
Fixtures: $17,003
Structure: $0
Personal Property: $1,719,039
Total: $1,736,042

But I have commented above that the assessed property values look way to low.
Well our Assessor just explained that they only assess such value twice, new construction, and when a property changes hands. So they aren't supposed to otherwise be accurate.
So much I had not known!
