The New York Times
Early returns indicate that fewer people than usual have been getting the refunds they expected. That has created an excruciating spectacle: Many people who paid less in taxes every week are discovering that they owe money to the Internal Revenue Service. On top of that, residents of states like New York, New Jersey and California face a new cap on federal deductions for state and local taxes, and won’t know whether their federal tax bill has gone up until they have slogged through their returns.

Accounting WEB
When defining a digital good or service, jurisdictions often look very carefully at two details: the specific type of content being delivered and the delivery mechanism for that content. Content types might include video, audio, games or software. Meanwhile, delivery mechanisms can be streaming (either live or on demand) or downloaded. From there, taxation paths can diverge, leaving layers of complexity for digital content providers often selling in thousands of jurisdictions.

The sale of a business is usually a big event in the owner's life. Many people work for decades or a lifetime before selling. Others build and sell multiple businesses every few years. There are also mega and serial buyers and sellers like Warren Buffett, one of the most tax savvy of all. Selling a business almost always incurs one tax, and often two. The business entity may be taxed, and the shareholders or owners may too. You hope to limit your tax hit to one tax, not two. If you are really lucky or clever, paying no tax is even better.

The New York Times
There was a brief period recently when it seemed that the midterm elections, which delivered control of the House to Democrats, might immediately shake up Americans’ income tax bills. That sense of urgency lasted half a day. On Feb. 7, newspapers reported that President Donald Trump had said he was “open” to easing a tax law change that has been painful to many people in New York, New Jersey and California. That is the $10,000-per-household limit on federal deductions for state and local taxes, known as SALT, which was included in the 2017 tax overhaul.
