The business world moves fast, and Ohio isn’t standing still. If you’re running a business in the Buckeye State or have employees there, you’ve probably heard about the Ohio Commercial Activity Tax (CAT).
It’s not exactly new, but the rules of the game are about to change significantly. Starting January 1, 2024, Ohio rolled out major revisions to the CAT, and if you’re not paying attention, you could miss out on some serious savings or even get caught off guard by unexpected tax bills.
Business privilege and mercantile tax (BPM) is a tax assessed on the gross receipts of specific types of businesses, commonly retailers and wholesalers. Originating from the Pennsylvania Local Tax Enabling Act of 1965, this tax serves as compensation for businesses availing local governmental services, such as public safety measures.
BPM has undergone multiple changes since 1965. By 1988, the Pennsylvania Local Tax Reform Commission labeled it as a “nuisance tax,” primarily due to inadequacies in the legislative framework and vagueness surrounding the tax base. Still, jurisdictions that had existing BPM were allowed to continue its imposition.
Understanding the rules for 1099 employees versus W-2 workers matters if you run a business or manage a team. Often called independent contractors or freelancers, 1099 employees make up a significant chunk of today’s workforce. How you classify workers affects everything from tax obligations to benefits to legal responsibilities. Get it wrong, and employee misclassification can create serious legal and financial problems.
