Texas Online Franchise Tax Calculator
November 3, 2009 by Robert Rhodes.
This came straight from Susan Combs, Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts - they are great about communicating with Texas corporations:
The new Online Franchise Tax Calculator (PDF, 263KB) is now available on Window on State Government. This tool allows you to estimate your potential franchise tax liability for report years 2008, 2009 and 2010. Your actual tax liability may differ from the estimate because of special provisions in the legislation.
You may also wish to visit our Franchise Tax Web page for answers to your other franchise tax reporting questions.

SOX deadline moved once again…
October 6, 2009 by Robert Rhodes.
On October 2, 2009, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) issued a press release giving nonaccelerated filers (those public companies with a public float, as measured at the end of their second fiscal quarter, of less than $75 million) additional time to comply with the requirements of Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Section 404(b) will now apply to the annual reports of nonaccelerated filers for fiscal years ending on or after June 15, 2010. As a refresher, Section 404(b) established the requirement for a company’s audit firm to issue an audit opinion on the effectiveness of a company’s internal control over financial reporting (“SOX Opinion”). The requirement for a separate SOX Opinion was in addition to management’s report on internal control over financial reporting (“Management’s Report”).

Republicans vs. Democrats…
May 1, 2009 by Robert Rhodes.
My Father just recently came over to the “Dark Side” from a lifetime in the Democratic party. He gave me this tidbit… Too bad both the major parties are so similar that there is little to differentiate them…
