Gain a Better Understanding of Your Sales and Use Tax Obligations in New York

John Fontanella, CPA, CCIFP—Principal, The Bonadio Group
Make no mistake: to cash-hungry tax authorities, your business represents a revenue stream, plain and simple. Their job is to maximize that stream, and a sales tax audit is one of their primary tools. In a sales tax audit, an auditor reviews your business records to determine whether you are underreporting taxes that are legally due. In addition to the costly time, effort and diversion of resources, the resulting penalties can be substantial. To you, that’s an unexpected hit to your profits; to the state it’s “found money.”

The Role of Insurance in Your Cyber Incident Response Plan

Phil Andolina — Partner, Lawley
Reggie Dejean, RPLU — Specialty Insurance Director, Lawley
Phil will discuss what you need in the form of insurance coverages for a small business. There are several lines of coverage that keep different areas of your business protected including workers compensation, property and business property and general liability, in addition to the proper personal insurance to keep your family safe. Do you need business interruption, Directors & Officers or pollution coverage? Your small business may not be as protected as you think.

Reggie will explain that cybersecurity insurance is not just for large organizations, it could possibly be more vital to a small business that cannot afford the financial hit when a cyber-attack occurs. With over 60 percent of small businesses going out of business after a breach, we can help you understand how cybersecurity insurance helps mitigate the first-party costs that occur when a breach happens. It is not a matter of if, but when, a breach will occur. Cybersecurity insurance can help you be prepared for when it does.
