45 or 82?

Joe the lawyer died suddenly, at the age of 45. He got to the gates of
Heaven, and the angel standing there said, “We’ve been waiting a long
time for you.”

“What do you mean?” he replied. “I’m only 45, in the prime of my life.
Why did I have to die now?”

“45? You’re not 45, you’re 82,” replied the angel.

“Wait a minute. If you think I’m 82, then you have the wrong guy. I’m
only 45. I can show you my birth certificate.”

“Hold on. Let me go check,” said the angel, and disappeared inside.
After a few minutes the angel returned. “Sorry, but by our records you
are 82. I checked all the hours you have billed your clients, and you
have to be 82…”

A funny affair

A woman is in bed with her lover who also happens to be her
husband’s best friend. They make love for hours, and
afterwards, while they’re just laying there, the phone rings.
Since it is the woman’s house, she picks up the receiver. Her
lover looks over at her and listens, only hearing her side of
the conversation…

(She is speaking in a cheery voice)

“Hello? Oh, hi. I’m so glad that you called. Really? That’s
wonderful. I am so happy for you. That sounds terrific. Great!
Thanks. Okay. Bye bye.”

She hangs up the telephone and her lover asks, “Who was that?”

“Oh” she replies, “That was my husband telling me all about the
wonderful time he’s having on his fishing trip with you.”

Be careful about bank deposits

Tax Tip
When setting up banking for your small business, think about the costs of banking.
Your business account should only receive business income deposits. You can decide what payments need to come from that account based on your own needs.
All other deposits should go to your personal bank account with a clear description on why the deposit is not income. CRA considers all bank deposits in any of your accounts personal or business as income. You always have to prove the non income deposits are not taxible income.
Usually a personal chequing account is less expensive to use than a business account, so do as many payments as possible from the personal account. Transfer the money you need to pay bills from your business account to your personal account. The transfer and the payments should balance.
As you will be using your personal account to pay business expenses, the banking fees will be tax deductible.
Make sure you enter all payments in your BKS with the business explanation, so that no business expenses fall in the cracks and no non income deposits go into your business income.
