Mark Perlberg’s Believe it or Not: Strange Tax Laws

December 12, 2023 by

⦁ At Kansas Amusement Parks, boarding a hot air balloon that’s still attached to the ground is subject to an ironically named “amusement tax.” If the balloon is released, the ride is tax free.
⦁ New York takes a shmear out of your wallet adding an 8-cent tax for slicing, spreads or other additions, while not taxing a plain uncut bagel. Go figure!
⦁ Colorado is no place for klutzes! If you’re the kind of person who is apt to spill hot coffee on yourself while driving, think twice before moving to Colorado, where coffee cup lids are subject to a 2.9 percent tax (the cup itself is not taxed).

We can help you through the maze of seemingly random and chaotic tax rules that affect your business and your return. We welcome you to take advantage of a free discovery session by visiting New Client Application or https://calendly.com/d/46r-49m-93k/10-minute-intro-call.
