Learn the Latest on the State Taxation of e-Commerce
The explosive growth of e-Commerce has resulted in several new tax issues surfacing in both the sales tax and income tax arenas. The e-Commerce proliferation has also renewed many of the concerns from the mail order and telemarketing state tax wars of the last 20 years. As states look for additional means to fill their coffers, e-Commerce activities are attractive targets to generate tax revenue and your company or your clients will be looking to you for a strategic approach to work through the state tax issues that could affect business operations.
This two-hour audio seminar on Thursday, November 12, is presented by noted state tax experts, educators and authors, John C. Healy, M.S.T., CPA and Bruce Nelson, M.A., CPA, and will explore the sales tax and income tax aspects of e-Commerce business activities. This informative and convenient session will provide both public practice professionals and those in industry, not only the necessary background, but also strategies and recommendations for dealing with the state taxation of e-Commerce. Time will be provided to ask your most pressing questions directly to Mr. Healy and Mr. Nelson via phone or e-mail during the program.
