At this time last year, income tax planning was particularly challenging. Several tax deductions had already expired, and significant changes, including new, higher income tax rates, were scheduled to take effect at the end of the year. Legislation passed in mid-December, however, hit the "reset" button, reinstituting already-expired deductions, and extending major tax provisions--including lower rates--for an additional one to two years.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs

3. Under the Patient
Protection and
Affordable Care Act
small businesses that
choose to provide health
insurance could be
eligible for a tax credit
based on their cost of
health insurance.
Source: IRS.gov
4. ―This credit provides a real boost to
eligible small businesses by helping
them afford health coverage for their
employees,‖ said IRS Commissioner
Doug Shulman. ―We urge small
businesses and tax-exempt employers
to look closely at this important tax
break — which is already effective — to
see if they qualify.‖
Doug Shulman, IRS Commissioner
(pictured above)

5. Small employers who contribute at
least 50% of the cost of premiums
(or 50% of a benchmark premium).
It is generally available to
employers that have fewer than
25 full-time equivalent (FTE).
Because the eligibility formula is based in part on the
number of FTEs, not the number of employees, many
businesses will qualify even if they employ more than 25
individual workers.
Eligible business will be paying
wages averaging less than
$50,000 per employee per year.
Source: IRS.gov
6. The number of an employer’s FTEs is
determined by dividing (1) the total
hours for which the employer pays
wages to employees during the year
(but not more than 2,080 hours for
any employee) by (2) 2,080.
The result, if not a whole number, is
then rounded to the next lowest
whole number.
DON’T COUNT: seasonal workers, self –
employed individuals, 2% shareholders of s-
corporations, 5% owners of a small business,
or partners of a partnership and family
members of owners.
Source: IRS.gov
7. For the 2010 tax year, an employer
pays 5 employees wages for 2,080
hours each, 3 employees wages for
1,040 hours each, and 1 employee
wages for 2,300 hours.
The employer’s FTEs would be
calculated as follows:(1) Total hours
not exceeding 2,080 per employee is
the sum of:
◦ a. 10,400 hours for the 5 employees paid
for 2,080 hours each (5 x 2,080)
◦ b. 3,120 hours for the 3 employees paid
for 1,040 hours each (3 x 1,040)
◦ c. 2,080 hours for the 1 employee paid
for 2,300 hours (lesser of 2,300 and
2,080)These add up to 15,600
hours(2) FTEs: 7
(15,600 divided by 2,080 = 7.5, rounded
to the next lowest whole number)
Source: IRS.gov
8. Seasonal workers are
disregarded in
determining FTEs and
average annual wages
unless the seasonal
worker works for the
employer on more than
120 days during the tax
year.
Source: IRS.gov
9. The amount of average annual wages is
determined by first dividing (1) the total
wages paid by the employer to employees
during the employer’s tax year by (2) the
number of the employer’s FTEs for the
year. The result is then rounded down to the
nearest $1,000 (if not otherwise a multiple of
$1,000).
For this purpose, wages means wages as
defined for FICA purposes (without regard to
the wage base limitation).
DON’T COUNT: seasonal workers, self –
employed individuals, 2% shareholders of s-
corporations, 5% owners of a small business,
or partners of a partnership and family
members of owners.
Source: IRS.gov
10. For the 2010 tax year, an
employer pays $224,000
in wages and has 10
FTEs. The employer’s
average annual wages
would be:
$22,000 - ($224,000
divided by 10 = $22,400,
rounded down to the
nearest $1,000)
Source: IRS.gov
11. The maximum credit goes to
smaller employers.
Those with 10 or fewer
FTEs and paying annual
FTE’s 35%
AAW average wages of $25,000
or less will receive the full
35% credit.
