Tax questions

Yes, indeed there are!

Starting any business as a sole proprietor (a non-incorporated business) means that expenses that were previously personal in nature, may qualify as eligible deductions against your personal income. These expenses can even be deducted against your current salaried income while your business is in its “start-up” phase. These expense categories include:

1. Home Office Expenses – Rent, property taxes, insurance, utilities such as internet, phone and computer equipment

2. Meals and Entertainment Expenses – Ever get jealous when your friends take the lunch receipt with them as a write-off? Well, get used to being able to reduce your taxable income now that you are operating an active business!

3. Vehicle and Auto Repairs – Each year you can take a portion of your auto expenses and apportion them to your moneymoves franchise, depending on the amount of time you used your car in pursuit of income related to your franchise.

Yes, there are significant government incentives to start your own franchise business!

CRA recently announce an incentive program to accelerate the tax deductions related to assets purchased for use in a business. Although your Franchise Agreement restricts these deductions during the first 4 calendar years, the resulting cash flow benefit can be substantial.

CRA Announces Accelerated Investment Incentive

Investing an any new business can result in significant tax savings and cash flow benefits for the owner. That is especially the case if the franchise investment is financed.
In order to ensure conservative treatment of these deductions, the moneymoves Franchise Agreement restricts the amount of deductions that may be claimed during the first 4 calendar years of operations. Specifically, Franchisee shallnot claim capital cost allowance (“CCA”) and other deductions related to the commercial use of the License for tax purposes during the year of acquisition and the following 3 years in a total amount equal to or greater than the cost of the moneymoves Software License.
