Business & Finance - 20 January 2007

I am a partner in a small private investigations company. Our business requires alot of driving and we (my partner and I) use our personal vehicles to do this. The partnership has reimbursed us for mileage driven and I want to know where to show this expense. Do we need to show this reimbursement as income and then show the mileage on a schedule C? Is there another way? Can this be entered into an expense line on the Form 1065? The majority of the mileage we are reimbursed for is a direct cost.

Thanks,
Cody

Unfortunately, I screwed up. I have already filed my 2006 tax return and it has been accepted by the irs and is expected to be here by the 30th. Problem is at the time, I was fine with that. Now something major has come up and I HAVE to have the money by the 26th. A lot of places do refund loans but that is while they are filing your taxes. Since I personally have already filed, does anybody know anywhere that will give me a loan with my irs status and papers without filing my taxes for me?

As a real estate agent, I am trying to generate referrals from real estate, probate, divorce and bankruptcy attorneys. I am doing this by developing a website geared toward them. What would make an attorney refer business to a specific real estate agent? I am trying to come up with a Unique Selling Proposition that will cause these attorneys to want to refer their clients to us when they need to sell a property due to Divorce, Probate / Death, Court Ordered Sales and Pre-Foreclosures. We are very well versed in these areas of real estate/legal sales but don't know how to get this across to attorneys on a large scale without coming across as cheesy or fly by night. We want to put ourselves on the same level as partners to these attorneys. If you were an attorney, what could we say to you to consider referring your clients to us to sell their home? What kinds of experiences have you had in the past when referring to agents? What else can you tell me? What do they want? Thank You

I filed for chapter 13 Personal Bancruptcy 7 years ago. I was just wondering: How long can someone wait to aquire a new line of credit; Is it 7 or 10 years now? I'm asking Because recently my Personal Bank sent me a Pre-Approved Unsecured Credit Card Application via the net. I filled it up w/ my Personal Info. Thinking it was just a fluke then after about a week,Lo and behold ,a Brand Spanking New Unsecured Credit Card w/ my name on it! Right After that, i applied with another Credit card company via the net, but it said that it can't process my application at this time. Iv'e been out of the hole for 7 years now so do you think is it ok to apply for more New lines of credit?...any info or suggestions is highly appreciated ,God Bless & Thanks a million in advance!

I am a night auditor at a 100-room chain hotel. I am also the only employee on duty during third shift so in essence, I am the night manager. I am responsible for all that goes on during my shift.

Would it be all right to list my title as "Night Auditor/Night Manager" on my resume?

What say you?

my lease is up - the management issued an offer in writing. when we went to sign the docs it was not the same as the written offer, stating increase due to pet rent. they were previously advised of our pet - I've been paying for her rent for over 2 years and they were aware of the pet when we moved in. do we have to pay the amount on the contract or is management stuck w/their written offer since it did not mention that there would be a price difference on the initial offer letter. - CA resident. - thanks

I work with a woman coworker who started off as a good friend, and when she got a promotion, she thinks she's better than me. She now has a habit of being snappy and throwing temper tantrums. Just today, she threw an object across the room and yelled at me for not telling her I took a lunch break. I did, but she didn't listen to me when I told her I was. My also boss favors her too, but he lectures me for hours. What should I do besides quitting? I already love the field of work I am in.

strangely, it seems that different real estate agents have different ideas about what the term "due diligence" applies to. it is different than a home inspection. i am asking this to simply get the different definitions from different Realtors. the way i use it is for very specific situations, particularly with commercial real estate sales. thanks, i'd like to hear what you think.

Another question that needs to be addressed. No matter how many times I write the answer, there are no grants for start-up businesses unless they are scientific, defense, or technology R&D firms, people on here still ask how they can get a grant for a business. Please explain why they cant, with hopes that people will get it! Once again, People you really cannot get a grant for a business. You can microloans, angel investors, SBA, venture captial etc. but NOT GRANTS!

I work night shift and I frequently have to wake up programmers to fix code or take a look at automated processes. Generally speaking, many of them are pretty good, but there are some that are entirely rude. Have you ever been in the same situation and really did not want to wake the rude ones up at all? It is just so frustrating! My job requires me to be polite. I try not to be rude back, but sometimes I am.

I am looking at a half acre lot for sale at $30,000

I have heard that getting financing for a lot is more involved than with a home mortage. I currently have a mortgage on a home. It is appraised at $56000 and I owe $39000 on the mortgage. My credit is around 630

Granted there are alot of variables and such, but in general, is it likely that I can get an opportunity to finance the property with minimal down, or is it a general principal that lots require a large down payment regardless of anything to secure the loan?
