He attributes that to hard work, customer service, wide selection, competitive prices and community involvement. Small business is one of the most important parts of the economy. The Small Business Administration says about 25.5 million small businesses employ more than half the U.S. work force. Small business has helped create more than 14 million new jobs in the past decade. In addition, there are about 10 million people in the U.S. who are self-employed - small businesses by definition. About 600,000 new businesses are started each year. Washington state is one of the top 10 states for small businesses, with more than 185,000 here. If you are thinking of starting your own small business - or you already have - these pages can help. Stephen H. Dunphy, Seattle Times business columnist

First, build a strategic plan for the family One of the most difficult problems confronting family businesses is building a consensus about how the business should be operated, now and into the future. In a non family business, the answer is rather simple and obvious: Develop and implement a strategic plan. In a family business, the process is dramatically more complicated and filled with situations that can devastate both the family and the business.

There are many contributing factors. Conflict between generations as to the strategic requirements of the business - what are the goals and how do we get there. Financial information is rarely disseminated to even the top managers (family and non family members) thereby thwarting those managers who, in fact, may be skilled in strategic planning, budgeting, costing, pricing, etc.

The Jones's were hit by a HMRC ruling last year that income from company dividends, received by a non-earning or low-earning spouse who is co-owner of the business, should be taxed at the same rate as the main earner's income. Mr and Mrs Jones, took their case to a HMRC tribunal last year, and lost, they then took the case to the High Court, hoping to overturn the tribunal verdict. ** Article Continues Below ** ** The Taxation article continues now ** The issue revolved around the husband an IT consultant transferring income in the form of shares, which then generated dividend earnings, to his wife, the income was then taxed at the wife's lower income tax rate, a practice carried out by many small family concerns. It should be noted however that the case did have some unusal features, the HMRC's investigation was initiated by just the sharing of tax liabilities, but also by Mr Jones taking a vastly reduced salary, so he could share increased dividends with his wife. The HMRC felt the case was an extreme example hence why they took action, they go on to say; businesses that comply with the long standing settlements legislation will not face higher tax bills.

94. RW - Tax Fairness: Estate Tax And Family Business We recognize the importance of protecting America s small businesses, and the estate There are already special estate tax rules for family businesses. http://www.responsiblewealth.org/tax_fairness/Estate_Tax/Estate_Tax_Family_Busin

Action Alert Estate Tax Background The Estate Tax and Family Business Only a tiny number of businesses are affected by the estate tax. According to the IRS, of the 2.3 million people who died in 1998, only 780 left an estate with significant business assets. A Treasury Department analysis found that estates that included family businesses paid less than 1% of all estate taxes. Proponents of estate tax repeal have rejected reforms that would have protected small businesses. In 2001, the Senate rejected a Democratic reform proposal that would have tripled the family business exemption to $4 million for individuals, $8 million for couples. That reform would have exempted the vast majority of farms and small businesses that currently pay estate taxes. In 2000, New York Times reporter David Cay Johnston interviewed six people named as "estate tax spokesmen" by the National Federation of Independent Business and the American Farm Bureau Federation. Only one of them was aware of the Senate proposal to triple the family business exemption. There are already special estate tax rules for family businesses.

The Battle of New Orleans Should we rebuild the City of New Orleans? The Forum The Horse Whisperer Stay tuned for free books from the Food Chain Library MetroFarm ... The Online Magazine of Metropolitan Agriculture The Ultimate Small Business for Home Business Entrepreneurs. Abraham Lincoln said, "The greatest fine art of the future will be the making of a comfortable living from a small parcel of land." That future is today with metropolitan agriculture. Consider the numbers: Where the average acre of farmland in Iowa earns $322, the average acre within the city limits of San Francisco earns $123,000 (Census of Agriculture). You can earn up to eight times the average personal income on as little as one acre of land. You can be male or female, old or young, married or single. You can lease, own, or rent. You can succeed with small fruits on prairie beach lands, house plants in coastal valleys, flowers on steep wooded hillsides, vegetables in city greenbelts and ornamentals in neighborhoods of million dollar homes. For details, read Michael Olson's definition of metropolitan agriculture and his book "MetroFarm"
