    6:48 "But this one is up for debate, you could argue payroll tax is actually regressive, since wealthy people tend to earn income from other sources like investments, which are exempt from payroll tax." But that argument admits that other sources of income have nothing to do with payroll tax, so it's not fair to call it regressive, right?

    • @thetaxaccountant
      @thetaxaccountant Год назад

      I am a board certified tax agent in Australia. Our tax system is the same as UK. Employees only pay income tax at a marginal tax rate depending on income. Payroll tax is levied on wages paid or payable by an employer to its employees when the total taxable wages of an employer (or group of employers) exceeds a threshold amount.

  • @jaidev777
    @jaidev777 6 месяцев назад

    Hi James. You said Payroll Tax is a Direct tax. But I thought Direct taxes refer to those directly paid by the payer to the government, while Indirect taxes refer to those which were passed on to someone else to then pay the government. Since the employer is sending the money to the government, shouldn't that mean it's an Indirect tax?

I know that certain businesses and ride share contractors can't write off their miles until they get to their first stop. I use half of my garage as a commissary/warehouse (area where I prep, clean equipment & pans and store inventory) and for book work. With my situation, am I able to start writing off miles when I leave my house? I have one location where I set up, so I'm not going to different locations. Thanks.

    If I have a full time job and file a W2 to the IRS and my company takes out taxes out of my paycheck why do I need to file taxes every year. Would it not make sense for my W2 and earned wages to match so every year I break even owing and gaining no tax differences. Now I understand there are some that like to receive more money each month on earned income thus owing more money on taxes. But why would we not adopt a new tax system so we break even. If I go to a store a pay 6% tax on an item I own that item and paid taxes on that item. I do not have to claim that taxed item again.
