How does “small entity status” affect a patent?

12 June 2008

By qualifying as a small entity, some patent related fees can be reduced by 50 percent.  All other aspects of the patent remain the same.  Small entity status was created to try and cut down the financial burden placed on inventors, while making large corporation pay a higher share.  When granted small entity status, filing, issue, and maintenance fees will all be reduced by half.  Although the filing, issue, and maintenance fees are all subject to change, and usually do get altered on the first of October every year, small entity status will always reduce their current value.  Only certain entities may qualify for small entity status, including: independent inventors, small businesses with less than 500 employees, and nonprofit organizations.   

I took the GRE subject test.

Check If Non Profit Org Accepts Charitable Tax Deduction

08 June 2008

As a company, we have always donated to several non profit organizations and I know that the company has declared the amount donated to tax to somehow take some of the brunt off.  Taxes can be pretty heavy sometimes and it will take its toll on you especially if you are not doing it right. What I did not know is that there are a lot of hard work to donating a certain amount of money especially if you want to declare it as a Charitable Tax Deduction in which case not all non profit organizations can accept that. So you always have to check with the IRS or let your lawyers do the checking.

Checkout Out Degrees For Teachers

20 May 2008

There was one point in my life where I considered being a teacher.  I even checked out several Degrees For Teachers but then I realized that I am not very patient nor am I a very good speaker.  You see I hate speaking in front of so many people.  Class recitation is a very hard assignment for me so can you just imagine me being a teacher.  Anyways, I know that teaching is a calling and it is a very hard job. Imagine being a parent for 40 kids.  So your head will blow up 40 times more, if frustrated. So I really admire what teachers are and what they can do.
