Sales tax is full of complexities, but there are certain topics that seem to cause more of a headache than others. Drop shipments are one of those topics. As e-commerce continues to explode – it almost doubled during the pandemic and was already rising sharply nationwide in early 2019 – drop shipment transactions have become even more prevalent. Many companies have added marketplaces on websites and don’t maintain their own inventory for online purchases.

RESOURCES / ARTICLES. Exciting Clients…. with Review Meetings! Accountants interpret financials to advise clients, sometimes through ‘quarterly [or monthly] review’ meetings. How do we get clients excited (and willing to invest) in these meetings? They need to see the value and believe in the approach. Then they’ll enter productive, long-term advisory relationships.

Not all businesses sell a physical product, but many businesses have inventory that is made up of materials used as a part of a service provided to a customer. In either case, these products and materials need to be accounted for in the warehouse, when they are moved to job sites, and when they are used for a client job or within the production of a larger product.

However, too much trust can lead to occupational fraud and conflicts of interest. To maintain the proper balance, establish a policy that outlines your disclosure expectations and require employees to follow it.

There’s a harsh tax penalty that you could be at risk for paying personally if you own or manage a business with employees. It’s called the “Trust Fund Recovery Penalty” and it applies to the Social Security and income taxes required to be withheld by a business from its employees’ wages. Because taxes are considered property of the government, the employer holds them in “trust” on the government’s behalf until they’re paid over.
