From imposing a single payroll tax to adding a gross receipts tax on various real estate entities, including commercial rentals and gathering funds to assist the homeless population. Due to all the changes, many business owners are confused. Is my business subject to this tax? How do I calculate the tax if I owe it? How can I plan for the next tax year to minimize the tax I owe?
