Hello to all, I wanted to share some information that you might find interesting. Do you contribute to charitable organizations (NFPO’s) and suprised that as a personal income tax payer don’t get the full tax credits you think you should get? Well there is a way to get around that! Revenue Canada allows you to contribute up to 75% of you corporate earnings to charitable organizations and write off the amount dollar for dollar as oppposed to the 29% deduction you receive above and beyond the $200.00 floor amount set by CRA.
Question is would you rather have tax deductions dollar for dollar through your business or 29% on your personal return. I like the dollar for dollar becuase there’s 2 benefits. 1) Giving makes you feel good and you are assisting the process of sustainable living for all!
2) Giving makes your company look good! In the eyes of public image you become top dog!
Need I say more? Giving is a wonderful thing and under the name of your corporate entity you get so much more bang for you buck. This is truly a win-win situation.
Now remember you cannot create a loss by giving away to charity; but it is allowed up to 75% of your net income as allowed per you Part IV corporate income tax. For more information check out: Donations p.48
Until the next post, happy networking to all. May everyone enjoy abundance and prosperity.
Cheers,
Saverio Filippis

Hello to all, this is my initial blog. My name is Saverio, my company’s name is Golioth Enterprises Consulting Ltd. . My passion and talent is eco-friendly accounting and business planning and I wish to assist as many people as I possibly can to provide abundance and prosperity in their lives who are looking to live and deal in the business of eco-friendly environmental practices. Having said this, my only limitation is that I am an accounting professional up here in Canada and limited by business application rules that apply to Canada; for now at least. I hope to get the chance to network and meet a lot of interesting people along the way.
Kind Regards,
Saverio Filippis
