Taxes, Tax Audits & Successfully Fighting the CRA +
The average taxpayer is going to file less than 80 tax returns in their entire life, yet they will spend their entire life worrying about taxes. So the bottom line is that if you don’t want to be stressed out over taxes, then think about how you can run your business in alignment with the intent and spirit of the law. The big question to be able to answer is; "Why be a tax cheater, when you can dramatically reduce your taxes legally?" In order to reduce your taxes, you need to learn the process of legal tax reduction and strategic avoidance strategies. The more sophisticated the strategies the more vulnerable they are to attacks and the more costly to defend.
Simplicity rules when it comes to the world of accounting. As far as tax loopholes, the only ones left that are the ones the tax department uses. So in order to lead a tax stress free life, understand that there is a way which does not allow for the belief that one does not have the time to keep good records.
Paying the least amount of taxes by good business planning is your ethical, moral and legal responsibility. Having said that one must understand that by doing boogie woogie accounting of yesteryear is just an invitation to an expensive and stressful fight with CRA.
So the first step in business planning is to decide how much after tax dollars you want to keep in your pocket. The second step is to go make twice as much as that so you know you can afford to pay your taxes and still meet your personal goals. The third step is to do audit ready bookkeeping to minimize your tax liability. The forth step is to leverage your tax savings to grow your business. --
