Is it illegal to have to tell my boss how much money in tips i make? -

Recently we have started to have to claim all of our tips because they said it cuts out steps they have to take to make us only claim the bare minimum... But i think that they are just curious how much money i make... is it illegal for them to ask or know?

Depending on your country.In Australia it isn t illegal for them to ask you the question, though if they don t hire you because of your answer or leaving the question blank, that is illegal.

In the U.S. you are legally required to cough up that info. Your employer is supposed to set Federal witholding rates based on your total pay which includes tips, so he needs that info to be legal, hence has the legal right to require you to provide that information to him.Capisce?Don t blame your boss, it s the IRS tightening the screws on him.

No, because tips are extra income. If you made tips but didn t report it, the IRS could do a lifestyle audit and see you make extra money. Then you could be found to be evading taxes.

It is part of their business to ask.

What are some good things to sell on eBay? -

I have already sold clothes on eBay, but am looking to make a bit more of a profit. I noticed that places like Marshall s have True Religion and 7 for All Mankind jeans for $99.00. Could I make a profit by selling them on eBay NWT? What are other good things to buy and sell for profit?

People are buying those popular brands, but they re paying with credit cards. Unless you are a full blown retail operation and can afford to buy in bulk to get wholesale prices, and pay the tab (3%) by using mastercard/or visa on your ebay sales, you should stay away from designer stuff that will go out of style in a matter of months. You want to keep your costs down, so why not consider secondhand merchandise. Not ratty tatty, but unique and rare items.

Not books, CDs or DVDsYes to collectables, though to be fair to you ebay is dying now. People are using ebid.nethttp://www.helium.com/items/1662609-ebay��

If you re interested in fashion, I would go with purses. Dooney Bourke sell big on eBay.

Collector Items.

How much does it cost to have my company name and logo reistered and protected? -

I need to get my company name and logo protected. How much does it cost and where do I get these items protected?

In the US, you need to file a trademark. I think the fee is $350 per trademark (the name and logo are separate). If you need a lawyer involved because someone has already filed this or you don t know how to complete the paperwork, the cost goes up.You can get and file the paperwork at US office of Patents and Trademarks.www.uspto.gov

Pick a name for my jewlery buisness? -

Im starting this little side buisness selling pandora bracelets beads and charms.Im looking for a catchy name I can use on my blog and on my buisness cards, etc.I was thinking of putting something like Ashleys european charm bracelets or something but it seems boring.Alittle about me:-my name is ashley, duh lol-um...I sell pandora european charm bracelets and beads-i love fashion and glamour and all that girly stuff.Any type of ideas or suggestions?Thanks!

make sure you use your main keywords in your business name and your url, domain name.don t use your own name... it s considered unprofessional... although Ashley is a beautiful name : )make sure you use an elegant word in front of you main keywords.. or just keep it as it is as your most important keywords are already there, i.e. Pandora Charm Bracelets and www. elegant word PandoraCharmBracelets.com or www. elegantword pandorajewelry.com, www.mypandorabracelets.com, or close to it... whatever you do, try to use your major keywords as this is the key to getting high search engine rankings and being found on the first page on google. ... hope this helps.

Using 2 merchant accounts for 1 business? -

I am wondering if I will be able to use 2 different merchant accounts for one particular business. Both merchant accounts we opened specifically for this business. They are with different companies. I am wondering if we will be able to use both merchant accounts for the same business?

You definitely can use two merchant accounts for one business. Some businesses who have difficulty getting a high enough limit on their merchant account do this very thing in order to process successfully for the entire month.The one think you can t do is use one merchant account for two businesses. That s called factoring and is VERY bad. But you re not doing that so you re ok. :)
