Sure! I’ll expand on the topics related to "Taxation of Business Entities," providing a more detailed exploration. This overview will cover fundamental concepts, applications, and implications relevant to the study of business taxation.---###
Overview of Business Entities#### 1. Types of Business EntitiesBusiness entities can be categorized based on ownership structure and tax treatment. Understanding these types is crucial for determining tax obligations and benefits.- **Sole
Proprietorships**: - Owned by a single individual, this is the simplest form of business entity. Income is reported on the owner’s personal tax return (Form 1040, Schedule C), which simplifies tax filing but also means personal liability for
debts and obligations.- **Partnerships**: - Consisting of two or more individuals, partnerships do not pay federal income taxes. Instead, they are considered pass-through entities, meaning income is taxed at the partners' individual rates.
Form 1065 is used to report partnership income, while partners receive Schedule K-1 to report their share on their returns.- **Corporations**: - Corporations are separate legal entities that provide limited liability protection to their owners
(shareholders). C-Corporations face double taxation: once at the corporate level on profits and again at the individual level when dividends are distributed. S-Corporations, on the other hand, are pass-through entities but have restrictions on
ownership and number of shareholders.- **Limited Liability Companies (LLCs)**: - LLCs combine the flexibility of partnerships with the liability protection of corporations. An LLC can choose to be taxed as a sole proprietorship,
partnership, or corporation, allowing for strategic tax planning. ### 2. Tax Implications of Each Entity TypeUnderstanding the tax implications of each entity type is critical for effective business planning.- **Sole Proprietorships**: - Income
is taxed at the owner’s individual tax rate. All profits and losses are reported on the owner’s tax return. This simplicity, however, can expose owners to significant personal risk.- **Partnerships**: - Each partner reports their share of income
and losses on their personal returns, allowing for loss deductions. Partners are also subject to self-employment taxes on their share of the income, which can significantly impact tax liability.- **Corporations**: - C-Corporations are taxed at
the corporate tax rate (currently 21%). Dividends are taxed again at the shareholder level. S-Corporations avoid double taxation, but there are restrictions on the number and type of shareholders.- **Limited Liability Companies (LLCs)**: -
By default, single-member LLCs are treated as sole proprietorships for tax purposes, while multi-member LLCs are treated as partnerships. However, they can elect to be taxed as a corporation if beneficial.### Key Tax Concepts#### 1.
Income RecognitionIncome recognition is a fundamental principle in taxation, determining when income must be reported.- **Cash vs. Accrual Accounting**: - Businesses can choose between cash and accrual methods. Cash accounting
recognizes income when received and expenses when paid, making it straightforward. Accrual accounting recognizes income when earned and expenses when incurred, aligning revenue with the period it relates to, but can complicate cash
flow management.#### 2. DeductionsDeductions reduce taxable income, directly impacting tax liability.- **Ordinary and Necessary Expenses**: - The IRS allows deductions for expenses that are ordinary (common in the industry) and
necessary (helpful and appropriate for the business). Common deductions include rent, utilities, salaries, and professional fees.- **Limits on Deductions**: - Certain expenses, such as meals and entertainment, have specific limits (e.g., meals
are typically only 50% deductible). Understanding these limits is vital for effective tax planning.#### 3. Tax CreditsTax credits directly reduce the tax liability, providing a dollar-for-dollar reduction of taxes owed.- **Types of Tax Credits**:
- Examples include the


Chapter 03 Communicating with Older Adults
PN Case Study: Visual and Auditory Changes


Mrs. Nicholas is a participant in day programming at her local community centre. The nurse
attends a once-weekly session where the focus is on health teaching with a small group of older
persons. The nurse has observed through previous weeks that Mrs. Nicholas has begun sitting in
the front row but has become progressively less engaged in the discussions during the sessions.
The nurse has also recently noticed some disagreements Mrs. Nicholas and her peer group.

Rationale:
Hearing loss is a prevalent, persistent condition in older Canadians, and the most common
sensory impairment in Canadians over 60 years of age. Hearing loss increases after the age of 40.
Quality of life and communication are diminished with hearing loss and is associated with many
negative outcomes. Some of these include decreased function, miscommunication, social
isolation, depression, safety risks, and reduced income and employment opportunities. Hearing
impairment may cause an older person to become suspicious, distrustful, or display paranoid
thoughts; inappropriate communication may lead to an erroneous diagnosis of cognitive
impairment. Hearing impairment is underdiagnosed and undertreated in older adults. Screening
impairment and appropriate treatment is considered an essential part of primary care for older
adults, yet it is rarely done. Hearing loss tends to be overlooked as a geriatric syndrome, and is of
particular concern in LTC homes, where the majority of residents are affected. Conductive
hearing loss usually involves the external and middle-ear abnormalities that reduce transmission
of sound to the middle ear, as seen in otosclerosis, infection, perforation of the eardrum, or
fluid/cerumen accumulation. Sensorineural hearing loss results from damage to any part of the

, inner ear or neural pathways to the brain, as seen in presbycusis.
