Business & Finance - 27 September 2007

....sment?
I have a personal account, and a business account for my LLC. I don't want to get a credit card for my business account, so I use my Visa debit card and reimburse myself from the business account. I'm wondering if it matters whether I reimburse myself several times over the year or do it all at once. Of course I'm tracking what I'm reimbursing myself for in QuickBooks.
Thanks for your input.

If someone receives a 1099 form which shows that they made 800 or 900 bucks, is it necessary to file taxes for that? I heard that you only have to file if your income is more then 7k in one year.

My school schedule is fixed so I can't skip class to work. I can work 20 hours a week, which you'd think was great for an employer but it's the exact hours that aren't so great. Evenings I work at a job which pertains to my degree and gaining enough hours to be qualified by the state. However, I'm starting to think I should quit that job because I would be free evenings. I also have another job where I work 3 hours a week (one day) that also pertains to my degree and gaining the state qualification hours, but I want to quit that because it's holding me back.

I really enjoy the jobs that I have right now, but I feel like the hours I put towards them are holding me back from getting a job that would pay more and have more consistency. But at the same time, they pertain to what I want to do after grad next year.

Is it realistic for me to find a "degree" job even though I have yet to graduate? What should I do? I can't find a decent job to pay the bills and it's frustrating.

I have a tenant who is allowing her daughter's boyfriend to live at the house. He is not listed on the lease, nor will he be able to get on the lease since my house only has two bedrooms. I will be fined if it does not stop, but when I talk to them about it, they tell me that he is not living there. What should I do?

I'm female... just in case you were going to give a funny answer!

I'm 37 and applying for jobs (in law offices) after having 2 years off for my family. I haven't had a proper job interview since I was in my early 20s and, although very confident of my skills, I'm completely petrified of making myself look a fool in the interview.

I normally never wear skirts, and wondered if it would look unprofessional to wear a smart trouser suit to an interview.

A sensible answer to this would remove one small worry!

I was trying to get an apartment with my husband, but our credit is bad so we needed 2 co signers. My husband and I signed the lease but then our co-signers backed out on us. The apartment complex told us that they had the right to keep our security deposit. Is this true? My co signers names are also on the lease, they just didn't sign it.

Yesterday I recieved a court order for a summon to appear in reference to a collection from a credit card company. First , it went through collections, but today I called the law firm for the plantiff and they stated I would have to pay $2,700 for fees and the settlement itself. I was disgusted and hung up the phone. I called back the collection agency today and they stated I could pay up for a lesser settlement of $520, which I have to western union tomorrow. I asked if I would be cleared from the creditor and court process etc. and they said I would be cleared of all and recieve a notification of cleared balance. Is this true or will they get me for something else. My deadline for payment is tomorrow.

My taxable income is 31k, right below the 25% tax bracket (for 2007 $31,850), so I think I should still get the 5% tax treatment for capital gains. If I have 5k in cap gains will I pay 15% or 5% on them or a combination of both? Just looking at a 1040 it is not obvious to me.

I changed from BT Broadband to a new provider on 25/06/07 that was the switch over day. Ive just received an online bill from BT for the period 13/06/07 to 11/09/07 seeing as I only had 12 days in that quarter with BT can anybody tell me if they`re entitled to charge me for the full quarter. I was`nt in contract with them and they have in fact already taken the money from my account. I cannot find any reference as to whether they`re entitled to do this and to try and contact them on the phone is a near impossibilty
