...She handed me a five dollar bill through the car window, then turned and walked away. I don’t know her name, nor where she was going—the encounter was so brief—but I know I will never forget that lady stranger who generously saved me from a lot of frustration and prevented me from walking a mile or more to my destination. The scene was a downtown public parking lot. My husband, Leo, and I were already a half hour late for a statewide conference on the status of African American families and children. (CSAAFC). We had taken the wrong fork in the expressway, and found ourselves deadlocked in traffic that was backed up for four miles due to a serious accident. I told Leo to go the other way, but he didn’t. . . When we finally were able to exit, we tried to find parking in the designated free garages and lots near the hosting hotel. But, by now, they were all full. Not expecting this, neither of us had brought change; all we had was a twenty dollar bill. When we did find some space in a lot two blocks away from the conference, we were unable to pay the automated box for our slot; we needed five dollars. There was, handily, an ATM that charged $4.50 to get change for a twenty. But, there was no guarantee that there would be a five spot; we might have gotten just two tens for change. That wouldn’t have helped the situation. Besides, $4.50 just seemed like highway robbery. I wasn’t willing to pay it. We asked several people approaching the pay box if they could change a twenty. “No”...

...Payroll and Business Tax Accounting Chapter 1 – The Need for Payroll and Personnel Records Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) or Federal Wage and Hour Law – A federal statute of the United States that was established in 1932 by Senator Hugo Black. This statute “contains provisions and standards concerning minimum wage.” It also covers equal opportunity requirements so that everyone is paid a fair wage regardless of race or sex. It covers overtime and holiday pay, record keeping, and child labor. (Textbook) These standards affect “employees in the private sector and in federal, state, and local governments. Covered nonexempt workers are entitled to a minimum wage.” (www.dol.gov/whd/flsa) It also started “the forty-hour work week, established a national minimum wage, guaranteed ‘time-and-a-half’ for overtime in certain jobs, and prohibited most employment of minors in ‘oppressive child labor.’” (Wikipedia) Provides enterprise and individual employee coverage. Federal Insurance Contributions Act (FICA) – an employment tax that “imposes two taxes on employees and two taxes on employers.” These taxes fund old-age, survivors, and disability insurance program (OASDI) and hospital insurance (HI). (Textbook) The FICA “tax is a United States federal payroll (or employment) tax imposed on both employees and employers to fund Social Security and Medicare —federal programs that provide benefits for retirees, the disabled, and children of deceased workers.” (Wikipedia) This act requires...

Restaurant challenged use by the Internal Revenue Services (IRS) of aggregate method to determine, assess, and collect its share of Federal Insurance Contribution Act (FICA) taxes on tips received by its employees. The United States District Court for the Northern District of California, 21 F.Supp.2d 1097, granted summary judgment for restaurant, and IRS appealed. The Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, 242 F.3d 844, affirmed, and certiorari was granted. The Supreme Court, Justice Breyer, held that: (1) the law authorized the IRS to base its assessment upon its aggregate estimate of all the tips that the restaurant's customers paid its employees; (2) such a method is not precluded by negative implication from statutes which authorize the IRS to use methods of estimation for determining income tax liability and which authorize the Secretary of the Treasury to adopt regulations that prescribe mechanisms for employers to adjust FICA tax liability; (3) fact that an aggregate estimate will sometimes include tips that should not count in calculating the FICA tax the employer owes did not render use of...

...NewCorp Scenarios Legal Brief Many organizations in the United States of America do not have the budget for staff counsel within their company. NewCorp is a business that has found themselves in legal matters and is seeking an assessment on ways to handle these circumstances from a consultant in the organization before refering matters to an attorney and incur costs. This assignment reviews three scenarios involving NewCorp. We will examine liabilities the organization and complainant are subject to as well as any statutory or case laws relevant to support the findings. Legal Scenario One Legal scenario one explains that NewCorp relocated an employee named Pat to manage the real property division of the business. After 90 days of employment NewCorp determined that Pat was not an appropriate fit for the position and terminated him with 30 days of severance pay. Pat feels as though he was wronged because he was not given the opportunity to improve through a corrective action plan as promised upon hire. Because of this, Pat believes that NewCorp should not be able to discharge him at will and believed that this action was taking place because of statements made outside the workplace. NewCorp and Pat both have rights in this scenario. Fortunately for NewCorp they are located in Vermont that is considered an “at will” state. This means that an employer can terminate an employee for any reason at any time as long as it does not relate to a Title VII protected class that includes...

...Wal-Marts outlook wary Wal-Mart reported that a lower tax rate boosted its net income by 8.6 percent during the fourth quarter, but the company offered a tempered forecast going forward as its lower-income shoppers struggle with rising gas prices, delayed income tax refunds and higher payroll taxes. Wal-Mart said that February started "slower than planned" but noted that it was largely due to the Internal Revenue Service's decision to delay accepting tax returns by eight days until Jan. 30 because of late Congressional action to tackle the budget crisis last year. Which resulted in Wal-Mart customers cashing about $1.7 billion in income tax refunds year to date, compared with $4 billion for the same time period a year ago, Wal-Mart said. Shoppers last year had used refund money to buy TVs ahead of the Super Bowl, the company said, but this year, the retailer said it's not sure how customers will use the refunds. Going forward, Wal-Mart said it's unclear how the payroll tax, implemented last month when the U.S. government allowed a temporary 2 percentage point cut in Social Security taxes to expire last month, will affect spending. Nearly all working Americans are taking home less pay and that payroll tax increase will equate to $70 per month less in take home pay for Wal-Mart shoppers, assuming an average annual income of $42,500. Also, Wal-Mart said it still is grappling with allegations that surfaced last April that it failed to notify law enforcement that company officials...

...today’s middle aged and younger workers. Those who retired in the 196’s and 1970’s received real benefits of three or four times the amount that they paid into the system, which is way better than if they had invested the funds privately. Future retirees can expect to earn a real rate of return of about 2 percent more on their Social Security tax dollars, which is way less than what they would earn from personal investments. I believe today, we should be permitted to invest our Social Security tax dollars. Because of the shorter life expectancy of blacks, the Social Security system adversely affects their economic welfare. Compared with Whites and Hispanics, blacks are far more likely to pay a lifetime of payroll taxes and then die without receiving much in the way of benefits. On the other hand, Social Security is favorable to Hispanics because of their above average life expectancy and the progressive nature of the benefit formula. As a result, Hispanics derive a higher return than whites and substantially higher than blacks. I do not believe that the Social Security system promotes income equality because Social Security is a payroll tax and it is taxed on wages over $400 per month. If you are self-employed you have to pay both shares, yours plus...
