June Walker tackles the most vexing problems facing the self-employed: bad recordkeeping and tax ignorance Her solutions are simple, quick and audit proof: a recordkeeping method that works and a guide through the tax maze that ends with more money in the indie's pocket and less money going to Uncle Sam.

The self-employed operate under various names -- sole proprietors, freelancers, subcontractors, free agents, independent professionals - but the IRS and other taxing authorities require all of them to follow the same rules. If self-employed people don't understand tax and recordkeeping fundamentals, they will eventually gum up the works, and the remedy will be expensive, time-consuming, worrisome, and possibly fatal to their businesses - no matter how talented, motivated and entrepreneurial they are.

The author creates characters such as wedding photographer Billy Bridesnapper and the clueless CPA Sammy Segar to illustrate situations based on the real experiences of her clients. Through these examples told in clear, crisp and simple prose she explains the complete range of tax and recordkeeping basics - like how to prove to the IRS that the endeavor is a business not a hobby, how start-up costs differ from other deductions, how to go snorkeling and still deduct travel expenses, why a gift to mom can be a legitimate business deduction, why solos needn't worry about the difference between income and a reimbursement, how to make estimated tax payments, the structure and advantages of sole proprietorship, and hundreds of vital details about taxes, finances, and recordkeeping.

Armed with June's unique copyrighted worksheets designed just for the indie, her system takes only a few hours a year to implement, and saves time, anxiety and stress. Even the beginner who has never kept business records can easily learn it. Self Employed Tax Solutions explains how not to miss one single business deduction, how to pay the least tax legitimately possible and how to keep records so that accounting and tax preparer fees are reduced.

Self-Employed Tax Solutions is not written for dummies but for bright, intelligent people who don't understand the business side of their solo ventures. It's the one indispensable book that self-employed people need to survive and to succeed in a business environment where the tax laws and regulations are structured not for them but for corporations and employees.

The new book from this eminent American archivist covers a wide range of recent issues and controversies related to the mission and work of archivists and records managers. The essays contained in it consider both the practical issues of administering records and the much more contentious issues related to public policy and recordkeeping. The book is intended to push both archivists and records managers to reconsider their notions of the ethical dimension of their work and how they define their societal and organizational priorities. Cox explores current issues confronting records professionals - such as censorship, intellectual property, truth and recordkeeping, and the control of government records and information - that may seem to threaten the integrity of their work and redefine the way in which they view their mission. Many of the essays reflect on the notion of whistle-blowing and its implications for archivists and records managers. This significant text will challenge archivists and records managers to re-think their own perspectives about such matters, asking if their professional associations' ethics codes are sufficient, given recent challenges to the control of records and information in government agencies, corporations, and even cultural institutions. Key topics include: From ethics to accountability, or when do records professionals become whistleblowers? Testing the spirit of the information age; Searching for authority and recognition: archivists, records managers, and electronic records; Why the Archivist of the United States is important to records professionals and America; America's pyramids: presidents and their libraries; The world is a dangerous place: recordkeeping in the age of terror; Technology, the future of work, and records professionals; Records and truth in the post-truth society; Censorship and records; Personal notes - intellectual property, technology, and unfair stories; and, Archiving archives: rethinking and revitalizing a concept. With a foreword by Sarah Tyacke, former Chief Executive of the UK's National Archives, this important debate will be of great interest to records professionals and archivists worldwide needing to know how the issues will impinge on their work..
