Keeping track of ever-changing rules and regulations
2/8/2000
Keeping up with the intricacies and implications of ever-changing tax laws and regulations can be a daunting task for the small business owner. This site, from the publisher of the magazine Small Business Tax Review, can help. Updated daily, it offers news from Tax Court, the Internal Revenue Service, the legislature and elsewhere affecting deductions, recording-keeping, accounting procedures and other tax-related processes. There's a mix of brief news items and longer, explanatory pieces, as well as a good reference section with tax tables, important phone numbers, sample forms, a glossary and other resources. Navigation could be better: a simple search engine helps cull information out of the mix, but the list of results makes it hard to distinguish one item from another without actually looking at each one. Still, despite such shortcomings, this is an excellent compilation of material on a complicated subject from people who are in the know.
