Credit Card Audit with no upfront fees and no changing providers?

 

A credit card audit should focus solely on expense reduction within the payments industry and should be a two-phase approach to expense reduction in the payments industry for businesses.  

1. First, correct the processing plan to reflect the most competitive plan type and rate, using formulated, specific asks of the existing provider.  

2. Second, assist the client to further reduce the non-negotiable fees through processing optimization and help qualify payment transactions at lower interchange rates by passing through additional processing data.

The highest success rate for merchants that process credit card transactions are where the card is not physically present. This is referred to as a Card Not Present (CNP) environment, and includes B2B and eCommerce companies.  

Companies processing card payments between $1M and $20M on an annual basis typically have the largest potential savings opportunity.  

For card present locations, where the credit card is physically swiped at a terminal device, there may still be significant savings. As such, those types of merchants should never be overlooked or immediately disqualified.

Multifamily Properties and Engineered Based Cost Segregation

 

Cost segregation is a tax benefit that is not well known. Cost segregation is a strategy used by property owners to maximize the amount of depreciation taken each year.

This kind of depreciation expense is one of the major tax benefits of multifamily ownership because it helps to reduce the property’s tax liability without impacting the cash available for distribution. Commercial property owners, such as a multifamily property, have a strong incentive to take as much depreciation as they can each year. One of the ways this can be done is through a cost seg study (with no upfront fees).

Without cost segregation, tax rules allow multifamily assets to be depreciated over 27.5 years using a straight-line schedule. Cost segregation involves reviewing every aspect of a property and segregating its components into different buckets for which depreciation can be accelerated. 

By dividing a property into its components and depreciating them over a shorter time period, depreciation expense is maximized, and the resulting tax liability can be significantly reduced. Over a 10-year investment holding period, the tax savings from using cost segregation can be significant.

Depreciation is a noncash expense, meaning that it does not represent money that the property owner paid to another party. It is an accounting concept that does not impact the property’s cash available for distribution.

The benefits include:

*Increased Cash Flow

*Minimizes Taxes

*Catch Up Benefit (no amending returns)

*Free Up Money For Investments

Dentists have adjusted their practices during a pandemic...

While many businesses have been hit hard by the coronavirus pandemic, dentists have faced some of the biggest challenges because numerous procedures routinely use instruments that can create droplets and aerosols, posing potential risks of transmission.

Many were closed for months and were seeing emergency cases only. They were seeing patients who were in pain; no treatment was being done to not have aerosols. It was whatever could be done without a handpiece or ultrasonic devices. There were no fillings, no treatment per se, or crowns — only for symptom relief. 

Patients, of course, were anxious about safety, so it has taken a lot of training of staff and then also reassuring patients of all the steps that were taken so that they feel safe to come in. Pre-COVID versus post-COVID, most practices have lost 20 to 30% business.

Now there is emergency business relief for the dental industry and it is not a loan. More info here.

Not the best way to start Thanksgiving Week!

Restaurants across the Unites States are again bearing the brunt of some of the tightest restrictions as COVID-19 cases keep rising.

Much of Illinois, Michigan, California, Washington and other states have banned indoor dining and New York City's mayor said it's "just a matter of time" before the same happens in New York. Yet, some restaurant workers say that they are "relieved," about the measures, especially following a recent CDC report that found that those who had tested positive for the virus were twice as likely to have reported dining in a restaurant.

As for relief for restaurant owners, it's right there at their door steps via BusinessRefund with no upfront fees
