#Deduction guide

[consult-sherlockholmes]

How do you tell/deduce if someone is a chef

Especially the hands are a good place for deductions if someone is a chef. For example chefs tend to have very clean and well kept hands, with short nails, no nail polish and mostly no rings or other decorations that could be a hiding and breeding place for bacteria and dirt, which could then be transferred to the food, which would be a significant risk for food safety. Hair and beard are often also kept short or in a ponytail, otherwise they have to wear hairnets. Also their habits like repeated handwashing and hygiene habits could represent their profession, but alternatively could also be someone in healthcare.

The most telling would be that they themselves could smell like food if they are spending most of their time in the kitchen, surrounded with the steam of the cooking and the olfactory molecules of the food which then cling to the skin and hair. You can also tell what exactly they are mainly preparing if you can determine the smell. Often covered in grease if they work with the fryer, smelling smokey if they work the grill, and especially onions and garlic is a smell hard to get rid of especially on their hands where they directly handled and touched the food. A pâtisserie chef will smell different than someone who fries onions and meat all day. They can also smell like specific spices that could indicate certain foods, for example if they cook in an indian restaurant. Some foods can also stain the hands, e.g. curcuma stains hands a bright yellow.

Burns or cuts on their hands from mistakes while cooking, or general thickened skin because repeated exposure to heat.

Another very telling indicator is a knife callus on the lower part of their dominant hand’s pointer finger where they control the knife, most chefs who have done the job for a significant amount of time have this callus.

How they handle certain utensils like knives could also be a clue, whether they are able to cut professionally or like an amateur, how they hold forks and spoons. Another indicator for working in gastronomy in general is if people can carry several glasses or plates at once, how well they can balance without dropping anything.

And of course the easiest would be if you see them in their chef uniform or work clothes, then you don't need to be a genius to deduce their occupation.

Deducing pictures

Deducing pictures can be an efficient way to escape absolute boredom and lethargy. Although boredom will rush into my veins as soon as I finish, but anyway:

Here are some things that I observe while examining a photo:

1. Bed and blanket:

While observing a room photo, by having a look at the blanket, you can gather a lot of information, such as:

Is the person messy?

The season: observing the thickness of the blanket can help you determine if it's summer, winter, etc. in that location. It can narrow down your options about the place that person lives in (Southern/Northern Hemisphere)

How many people live in that room?

2. Plug & socket type:

There are 15 types of domestic electrical outlet plugs in use worldwide (Which I'm going to make a post about all of them with details quite soon).

In general, they are in 3 different groups: type A, type B and type C. This can help you in finding out the location of that person.

3. Glass/mug/cup:

Glass: used for cold drinks such as water, juice, etc.

Mug: a large type of cup typically used for hot drinks.

Cup: typically used for hot drinks such as tea, coffee, etc.

These three can reveal a lot of information, such as: dominant hand (which I made a few posts about it), how many people live there, drinking habits, etc.

Note: if there are two glasses/cups/mugs on two different sides of the bed, it means two people live there. But, if there are two glasses/cups/mugs on a desk it doesn't necessarily mean two people live in that room, but it's possible (more evidence is needed).

4. Plants:

Well-watered plants are a sign that the person who lives there, hasn't been going on long trips (this is most likely if they live alone/ don't have someone to look after their plants).

5. Architecture style:

Different countries, different styles.

Mostly you can tell by looking at the wall for higher accuracy. Although the rug type may also help, but the accuracy is lower than the wall.

To be fair, the $2 billion is a total of payouts over time, it factors in the time value of money over that range of time. If you ever look at a lottery page, such as Powerball.com, it will always have a "lump sum" amount that is usually ~50% of the listed prize value.

If he choses to take it as the lump sum (which I suspect is what happened given where the taxes landed) then he actually gets just over $1 billion in winnings. This means a one time tax hit versus a tax hit for elevated income over the (IIRC) 20 year life of the payouts. But again, half of the winnings disappear immediately. You never get to ask for the difference between the lump sum and the "total prize". *But this is not taxes* it is simply a function of how the lottery works. Again, *not a tax*.

US taxes are done in brackets. Any monies you make within a bracket is taxed at that bracket's rate. So, if you make $45k, you pay 10% on the first $11k, then 12% on the next $33725, and then that last $275 is taxed at 22%. If you make over $578k then your tax rate from that dollar amount up is 37%. So, on $1 billion his taxes will end up being under $370 mil. Taxes in CA are like 13.3% when you make over $1 mil, so there is another under $133 mil gone to taxes. So in actuality his taxes, at absolute worst, are like $503 mil. He literally cannot be taxed above that.

Which means the tweet is a lie. They listed what is probably his tax amount, on a lump sum payout, as his winnings amount. No, he is likely, at most, paying $424 million in taxes. Again, on $*1* billion. Not two, one.

I also double checked this on the news and his payout, after taxes, is actually $628.5 million. And, I was right, he took the lump sum.

So, again, at best the tweeter misread the news and misunderstands the lottery, at worst they are just straight up lying.

Top 10 Tax Deductions for Small Business Owners in Australia

Running a small business in Australia comes with many responsibilities — one of the most important being managing your taxes. A smart way to reduce your tax bill is by claiming deductions. These are legitimate business-related expenses that the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) allows you to subtract from your income, lowering your overall taxable income.

If you understand which expenses are deductible, you can save money and improve your business's financial health. Below is a detailed guide to the top 10 tax deductions for small business owners in Australia, with simple explanations and examples.

1. Operating Expenses

Operating expenses are the everyday costs required to run your business. These are typically regular, recurring expenses that keep your operations going. Examples include:

Rent for office or business premises

Utility bills such as electricity, water, and internet

Office supplies like stationery, printing materials, and cleaning products

These costs are fully deductible, meaning you can subtract the total amount from your income. Make sure to keep receipts, bills, and invoices as proof. If you're renting a space or paying utility bills specifically for your business, these are clearly eligible. Even small items like pens and notebooks count, as long as they're used for business.

2. Business Equipment and Assets

When your business buys assets such as computers, vehicles, machinery, or tools, you can claim them as deductions. However, these are usually claimed over several years through a method called depreciation.

Depreciation spreads the cost of a large purchase across the useful life of the asset. For example, if you buy a $5,000 computer expected to last five years, you might deduct $1,000 each year.

But small businesses may qualify for instant asset write-off, allowing you to claim the full cost of eligible assets (up to a certain threshold) in the year you bought them. This can be a great tax break if you've invested in equipment.

3. Vehicle Expenses

If you use a car for business, you can claim vehicle-related expenses. There are two main ways to do this:

Cents per kilometre method: Claim a set rate (currently 78 cents per kilometre for the 2023–24 financial year) for up to 5,000 km of business travel per car per year. You don’t need receipts, but you must be able to show how you calculated the distance.

Logbook method: Keep a logbook for 12 consecutive weeks to show your business vs. personal use. Then you can claim that business-use percentage of total expenses like fuel, registration, repairs, and depreciation.

Proper records are essential. The logbook method usually gives a larger deduction, especially if you use your car mostly for business.

4. Employee Salaries and Superannuation

If you employ staff, what you pay them is tax-deductible. This includes:

Wages and salaries

Superannuation contributions (required payments into their super funds)

Workers’ compensation insurance

Paying staff is not only necessary for running your business but also a way to reduce your tax bill. Just make sure payments are correctly documented and paid by the due dates, especially superannuation.

5. Professional Fees

Expenses you pay to professionals for business-related advice or services are deductible. This includes:

Accountants for tax returns and financial advice

Lawyers for drafting or reviewing business contracts

Business consultants or advisors

Even if you only hire an accountant once a year to help you lodge your tax return, that cost is deductible. Keeping invoices and contracts from these professionals will help support your claims.

6. Advertising and Marketing Costs

Promoting your business is a necessary expense, and the ATO allows deductions for various marketing activities, such as:

Online ads (Google, Facebook, Instagram)

Printed materials like brochures, flyers, or posters

Website design, development, and hosting

Sponsoring local events or sports teams

These expenses are important to grow your customer base, and as long as they are for business purposes, they are deductible.

7. Business Insurance

Insurance protects your business and is considered a legitimate business cost. Deductible insurance types include:

Public liability insurance

Professional indemnity insurance

Insurance for your business property or equipment

Business interruption insurance

If you’re unsure whether a specific insurance policy qualifies, check with your tax accountant. The general rule is: if it protects your business from financial risk, it's likely deductible.

8. Travel Expenses

Business travel costs are also deductible, but they must be directly related to your work. Common deductible items include:

Flights, train fares, or bus tickets

Accommodation (hotel stays)

Meals (usually only 50% or a capped daily amount)

Taxi or ride-share fares

If you're attending a business conference, visiting a client, or going on a work-related site visit, these expenses are claimable. Always keep detailed records, such as itineraries, receipts, and travel purpose notes.

9. Home Office Expenses

Many small business owners work from home, especially since the COVID-19 pandemic. If you use part of your home as an office, you can claim a portion of expenses such as:

Electricity and gas

Phone and internet

Home office furniture depreciation

Cleaning costs

There are two methods for claiming:

Fixed rate method: Claim a set amount per hour worked at home (e.g., 67 cents per hour).

Actual cost method: Work out the exact business use portion of each bill.

Choose the method that gives you the better deduction and suits your recordkeeping habits.

10. Bad Debts

If your business is owed money by a customer or client and it's clear you won’t be paid, you may be able to claim it as a bad debt.

To be eligible:

The income must have previously been included in your taxable income.

You must have made a genuine effort to recover the money.

The debt must be written off in your records before the end of the financial year.

Bad debts are unfortunate, but at least they can offer some relief on your tax return.

How to Claim Your Deductions Effectively

To get the most out of your deductions:

Keep detailed records: Save all receipts, invoices, and statements.

Separate personal and business: Only claim the portion of an expense that relates to your business.

Use accounting software: Platforms like Xero and MYOB help you track income and expenses accurately.

Work with a tax accountant: A professional can spot deductions you might miss and help you stay compliant.

Why Tax Deductions Matter

Claiming all eligible tax deductions:

Reduces your taxable income, which lowers how much tax you pay

Helps with budgeting and cash flow

Keeps you legally compliant and audit-ready

The money you save can be reinvested into growing your business.

Conclusion

Understanding and claiming the right tax deductions can help small business owners in Australia save a significant amount of money each year. From everyday operational costs to specific expenses like travel, advertising, and home office use, knowing what is deductible can lower your taxable income and improve overall cash flow. It’s important to keep accurate records and separate personal costs from business expenses to stay compliant with ATO rules. For businesses needing support, HelloLedger offers professional accounting and tax services tailored for Australian small businesses. Their team helps simplify the tax process, ensuring eligible deductions are claimed correctly and efficiently. By partnering with experienced professionals, business owners can focus more on growth and less on paperwork.

Understanding Anne Arundel County Property Taxes: Rates and Tips

Credit: Image by Mikhail Nilov | Pexels

Anne Arundel County Property Taxes: What Is Property Tax?

Anne Arundel County is one of the counties in Maryland and is characterized by beautiful views, a vibrant and prosperous population, and a favorable location near Baltimore and Washington, D.C.

Property owners in this area should learn about the property tax system operating within the county to meet their future financial and other obligations. This guide covers a transparent study of Anne Arundel County property taxes regarding assessment mechanisms, payment modes, exemptions, and other additional points to be taken.

Anne Arundel County property taxes is a local government charge for a property or land, such as a building. These taxes pay for essential public services like education, law enforcement, firefighting, and other services, as well as public works and recreation facilities.

In Anne Arundel County, property taxes are calculated based on the extent to which a particular property is valued and taxed.

Understanding the Assessment Process

The property assessment process in Anne Arundel County is done by the Maryland State Department of Assessments and Taxation (SDAT). It assesses properties to put a value on them, generally to set property taxes in this state agency. Properties are reassessed every three years using three main valuation methods.

Examples include the sales comparison approach, which seeks to analyze the recent selling prices of similar properties; the cost approach, which tries to determine the cost of reconstructing and depreciating the property; and the income approach, which is applicable if the property is rental or commercial.

Residents get an assessment of their current status, and any changes from the previous year are sent to them for care of their properties. These notices are essential for comprehending possible taxes.

Property Tax Rates in Anne Arundel County

Anne Arundel County initially established the minimum property tax rate to be charged per $100. The last known general property tax rate is $0.935 per each one hundred of assessed value.

There is also a base rate that residents from this county will be charged, but some rates can vary with different areas; there may be charges for some services like water and sewer services or enhanced roads. Maryland also has a very low state property tax, usually $0.112 per $100 of assessed value, which then goes to the county tax.

How to Calculate Your Property Tax

The proposed payment is calculated by taking the property assessment given by the SDAT assessment notice and multiplying the evaluation with the total property tax rate, which includes county, State, and any special district rates.

If the total assessment of the property is $300,000 and the total tax rate is 1.047 for every $100 of total assessment, then the annual Liverpool property tax would be arrived at as follows: subtract 100 from the estimated value ($300,000 – 100 = $299,900), divide that by 100 ($299,900 ÷ 100 = $2,999), and multiply by tax rates ($2,999 × 1.047 = $3,141). In this case, the property tax would be $3,141 annually.

Payment Methods and Deadlines

Property taxes in Anne Arundel County are paid once every year, and there are two ways to pay the amount due.

Owner-occupied residential properties are the default for semi-annual payments. The first is payable between July 1 and September 30 of the appropriate fiscal year, and the second is payable by December 31 of the corresponding fiscal year.

However, property owners can pay the sums in full by September 30 of each financial year. Payments may be made through the county's tax website by mail, in person to certain designated offices within the county, or through a mortgage company escrow.

Delinquent property tax means additional costs, such as penalties and interest, besides having tax liens placed on the property.

Exemptions and Credits

The county, too, has several programs through which it can rebate citizens who qualify. The Homestead Tax Credit preserves sustainable homeownership and stabilizes tax bills by restricting asset rise to 2% per taxable year for owner-occupied residences.

Homeowners Property Tax Credit is intended for low and moderate-income individuals and offers credit according to income and home value. Seniors 65 years old or above could be eligible for more tax credits if they have spent many years in the home they own.

Other eligible persons include veterans with disabilities incurred in the military service and persons with permanent disability. Furthermore, the State has offered energy efficiency tax credits for homeowners with energy-efficient solar panels or geothermal heating systems.

Appealing an Assessment

If the assessed value of your foreclosed property is incorrect, you are free to present your case before the SDAT. The beginning step requires a broad view of the assessment notice to know the root cause of the valuation.

Respond to the notice within 45 days demanding a hearing session. If you are called to present evidence, bring items that contain current appraisals, the latest comparability sales, or pictures of the property's current status.

If there is further disagreement, appeals can be made at three levels: the initial hearing before the supervisor, the Property Tax Assessment Appeal Board(PTAAB), and the Maryland Tax Court.

Strategies to Manage Property Taxes

When managing property taxes, always check your assessment notices and make sure they are correct. You should apply for all the available exemptions and credits so that you can care less about your taxes.

Prepaying taxes is a valuable way to plan the timely use of funds and sometimes escape penalties for delays. If your property assessment value seems unreasonable, you must appeal to contest the same.

The Effect of Real Property Taxes on Real Estate

Taxes on properties play a huge role in property prices, home demand, and the all-important issue of housing affordability.

Property taxes help establish the selling prices for homes in specific areas; thus, high property taxes may limit the ability of a particular region to sell homes since most people will be discouraged by the prevailing high property taxes.

To potential consumers, being informed about the property tax is significant in financial planning. Property tax revenue goes to financing local facilities and services, so residents enjoy a better quality of life in Anne Arundel County.

I'm watching two documentaries of one of my familys' villages and Palestinian and 'Israeli' witness accounts from the Naksa and a Jewish tour guide comes to one of the villages (which were the 3 villages side by side, all of them affected) and points to a bathhouse with gravestones all around it. The area of all three villages is now completely demolished and the Jewish National Fund built the "Canada Park" (funded predominately by Canada! Through tax deductible donations!), as well as an Israeli settlement, on top of it. An Israeli woman sits, eating from the trees that my ancestors planted, and she says "this is war. I dont feel the pain from these places, the pain of the people. This is what happens in war." Can you imagine? She sits, eating from my ancestors trees and she says "it doesn't matter to me." The level of selfishness to be so confident in your theft!

In the documentary, a Palestinian elder from Yalo says, holding back tears, that her dream is to go back to Yalo and die and be buried in her home, where her husband died. That was my great grandmothers' dream that was never realized, just a few years ago in a village not far from Yalo.

They talk about how this was a war crime, a crime against humanity. Since '67 we have been having these discussions. Since '48 we have been talking about war crimes committed by Israelis! These are the same discussions we keep having! The same facts we keep repeating! Even Yitzhak Rabin says the same things, that this is war, this is what happens in a war! It's the same things over and over and it's happening in Gaza!

There are people still alive who participated in the ethnic cleansing of these villages. They participated in demolishing these villages. They participated in killing those village members. They participated in the generations of poverty that Palestinians experience. They're still alive and just walking around in Israeli society, encouraging the genocide in Gaza. How can I trust a society like that? Knowing that these people are lauded as heroes for erasing these villages. How can I trust them when barely anyone in this society acknowledges the violence done onto us? Abhorrent violence that they let happen so willingly!

Here are the documentaries. These three villages were ethnically cleansed in '67, and it's shocking to hear the same sort of stories we hear from Gaza today. The same playbook, the same places.

Villages: Yalo, 'Imwas, Bayt Nuba
