You have to show a profit 3 out 7 years or it's a hobby,or maybe it's 4. Anyway you have to pay back Uncle Sam.
It's like a high-end car, if you have to ask the price, then you can't really afford it!! |

The LLC has separate books. I fund it by working on other pulling tractors. I havve shown a profit, but once I put the depreciation of the equipment in that took away the profit. My whole pulling operation; shop, hauler, etc is owned by the LLC of which I am and was the sole principal.. My LLC is setup as an equipment repair business. The only complications so far have been sales tax. Pa had a law on the books but never enfoced it until last year that all out of state purchases are subject to Pa sales tax. ie Hypermax, CDS, REI, etc.
Please note howvever the LLC is not protected by divorce, hence my current situation. |
