Here are proven, practical techniques to keep your hard-earned money out of the government's greedy grasp. The 1998 Business Owner's Tax Savings and Financing Deskbook is a plain-talking guide, for business owners looking to maximize their tax savings and steer clear of an audit. But the Deskbook goes far beyond taxes. This innovative guide is a triple-threat business tool. In addition to last year's revolutionary tax changes, readers will find surprising new sources of financing and a special brand of business planning focused on profit and success. The directory at the front of the volume delivers a quick summary of tax developments, a tax calendar for the year, a round-up of government and bank financing programs, and even a list of consultants.
