Estonia added a 2% surcharge on board member fees (24% total) from January 2026 and now denies VAT numbers to e-Resident companies without real economic ties — while 0% corporate tax on retained profits remains. Here's what changes for Estonian OÜ owners.
How freight brokers should structure their books — separate gross freight revenue from net margin, record factoring advances as loans (not income), track quick pay fees distinctly, and account for the FMCSA $75,000 bond or trust reserve that 2026 rules require replenishing within seven days of a claim.
Gusto's acquisition of compliance-automation platform Mosey signals that multi-state registration is becoming a payroll-provider feature. Small businesses under 50 employees spend about $14,700 per employee per year on regulatory compliance, and a first hire in a new state triggers foreign qualification, withholding and SUTA accounts, workers' comp, and new-hire reporting — each with its own agency, deadline, and penalties.
How to set up bookkeeping for a paragliding or hang gliding school — split tandem vs. solo revenue by USHPA rating level, capitalize $4,500–$9,000 wing/harness/reserve setups as depreciating fixed assets, track PASA certification and site insurance as recurring compliance costs, and hold weather-delayed tandem deposits as unearned revenue until the flight is flown.
As of 2026, roughly 20 states plus Washington D.C. require salary-range disclosure in job postings, and the laws apply based on where a remote job could be performed — not where the employer is based. Employee-count thresholds range from 1 to 50+, and penalties run from $250 per violation in Illinois to $25,000 in Massachusetts. Here is what small businesses must disclose, how to handle "Remote — US" listings, and a six-step compliance checklist.
Congress's February 2026 PBM reform mandates 100% rebate pass-through, bans spread pricing, and requires transparency reporting by August 2028. In West Virginia, an early rebate pass-through approach cut average 2026 group plan rate increases to 12.6% versus 19.5% under the old system. Here's what small employers should do before the 2029 enforcement date.
A PEO enters a co-employment arrangement that shares payroll tax and compliance liability with your business — pricing runs $40-160 per employee per month or 2-12% of payroll, and IRS CPEO certification determines whether the PEO fully absorbs federal tax liability.
From July 29, 2026, HMRC removes computers from the VAT Capital Goods Scheme entirely and raises the land and property threshold from £250,000 to £600,000 — the first increase since 1990. Expenditure incurred before that date stays under the old rules for its full adjustment period, so mid-project businesses must check when their first qualifying spend landed.
Wagepoint's WagePro+ program (July 2026) gives accounting firms up to 20% discounts, matched co-marketing funds, and automatic tier upgrades from 1 to 500 payroll clients — here's how those incentives can shape the payroll recommendation you get, and five questions to ask your bookkeeper before signing up.
How banner towing and skywriting operators should keep their books — track the FAA Certificate of Waiver (Form 7711-2) as the license that gates revenue, accrue engine-overhaul reserves per flight hour, treat client deposits as deferred revenue until the flight flies, and reserve peak-season cash against twelve months of fixed costs.
Amazon ends stickerless commingled inventory on March 31, 2026. Resellers must apply FNSKU labels ($0.20–$0.50/unit) while Brand Registry owners get virtual tracking; unlabeled stock gets flagged defective. Here's the labeling deadline timeline, who pays what, and the lot-level costing and landed-cost accounting changes sellers need before the cutoff.
Australia's Tranche 2 AML/CTF reforms made accountants, bookkeepers, and tax agents AUSTRAC reporting entities on July 1, 2026, with enrollment due by July 29.
