...ork2012 - 2013 Catalog A Message from the President “Sullivan University is truly a unique and student success focused institution.” I have shared that statement with numerous groups and it simply summarizes my basic philosophy of what Sullivan is all about. When I say that Sullivan is “student success focused,” I feel as President that I owe a definition of this statement to all who are considering Sullivan University. First, Sullivan is unique among institutions of higher education with its innovative, career-first curriculum. You can earn a career diploma or certificate in a year or less and then accept employment while still being able to complete your associate, bachelor’s, master’s or doctoral degree by attending during the day, evenings, weekends, or online. Business and industry do not expand or hire new employees only in May or June each year. Yet most institutions of higher education operate on a nine-month school year with almost everyone graduating in May. We remained focused on your success and education, and continue to offer our students the opportunity to begin classes or to graduate four times a year with our flexible, year-round full-time schedule of classes. If you really want to attend a school where your needs (your real needs) come first, consider Sullivan University. I believe we can help you exceed your expectations. Since words cannot fully describe the atmosphere at Sullivan University, please accept my personal invitation to visit and experience...

...FEES AND CHARGES FOR 2011 Web Page www.ru.ac.za/fees (1) GENERAL INFORMATION Liability for fees Liability for all fees begins as soon as completed application forms are submitted to the University and the student is accepted. The signing of the application form establishes the legal liability of the student and his/her other funder for the payment of all fees as determined by the Council. This can vary according to the student's circumstances. These fees are published in the annual Rhodes University Calendar, and are available on the WEB. In any discussions or negotiations about fees, it will be assumed that a student and his/her other funder have made themselves aware of the provisions of this section and of the equivalent fees schedule. While the University attempts to keep fees as low as possible, student fees usually increase annually by approximately 10% per annum. Ignorance of the fees payable does not provide grounds for avoiding liability for any fees due and payable. Alteration of fees The University Council reserves the right to alter all fees payable to the University, or to impose a fees surcharge if circumstances require it. In the case of an alteration of fees...

...CHAPTER 6 SELF-EMPLOYED BUSINESS INCOME SCHEDULE C Discussion Questions 1. Discuss the definition of a trade or business. Why does it matter whether a taxpayer is classified as an employee or self-employed? Answer: A trade or business is any activity that is engaged in for profit continually and regularly. The income from a sole proprietor is netted with related ordinary and necessary business expenses to determine the effect on AGI. 2. Discuss the concepts of ordinary, necessary, and reasonable in relation to trade or business expenses. Answer: According §162, in order for an expense to be deductible it must be an ordinary and necessary expenditure. The expense must also be reasonable (as established by the courts). A trade or business expense must not only be ordinary and necessary but also reasonable in amount and reasonable in relation to its purpose. The Supreme Court (in Welch, T., 1933, S Ct, 290 US 111) held that in order for an expense to be ordinary, in must be customary or usual in the taxpayers particular business. The necessary criterion refers to an expense that is appropriate and helpful, and not necessarily essential to the taxpayer’s business. Reasonableness is not specifically included by IRC §162, but has been added by the courts. In these cases, the courts held that a trade or business expense must not only be ordinary and necessary but also reasonable in amount and reasonable in relation to its purpose. 3. What...
