Over the years, we have found that many clients have common misconceptions of how business insurance protects their company. Business owners should realize that business insurance is an asset just like your business equipment. To utilize your insurance policies to their full potential, business owners must learn to avoid these common misconceptions by consulting with their professional insurance agent. Here are the most common misconceptions that we see in the business insurance world: • Business insurance is only necessary if you have assets to protect. This is incorrect! Asset protection is only one facet of a business insurance policy. Business insurance policies also pay for the legal defense of the insured for covered losses. As the defendant in a lawsuit, you could find yourself with a large price tag for legal

Committee members see it as a symbol that represents the desire to foster a stronger strategic partnership between tourism and the business community. “Recipients of the Chrysalis Award are true examples of sustainable practices that make each individual business stronger which reinforces growth in our community,” said Colleen DePasquale, executive director of the Greater Fort Myers Chamber of Commerce, whose organization initiated the joint program. “The Chrysalis Award program is a great opportunity to showcase the success in Lee County while emphasizing that these strong economic engines are connected and work together. These diverse relationships encourage new visitors and ultimately new businesses for our area.” The Celebration of Business & Tourism Awards Luncheon and Trade Show will feature a trade show from 10:30 a.m. to 2 p.m., with the awards luncheon taking place from 11:45 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. The event is projected to attract 400 attendees.

sation has no deductibles, while your health benefit package likely has a very high deductible. Second, if you are unable to work, workers’ compensation insurance will pay a portion of your lost wages. Finally, some medical benefits providers will deny coverage for a claim if you have excluded yourself for coverage under your workers’ compensation policy. • My commercial property lease doesn’t really affect my insurance coverage. To the contrary, the terms in your lease will play an important role in how your insurance will respond to a claim. Not only should you have your lease reviewed by an attorney knowledgeable in commercial real estate transactions, it is essential that you provide your insurance agent with a copy of your lease for review. Your agent can help you determine if the proposed lease requires you to insure something over which you have no control, no insurable interest or which may cost you a lot to insure. It may also help your agent understand exactly what you are responsible for and make sure that you have adequate protection in the event of a loss. • You should always have the highest deductible when you purchase insurance. Never choose a deductible until you have first reviewed the savings associated with each deductible level and compared that with your final out-of-pocket payment difference. Don’t forget to factor in the level of risk you are comfortable with before making your final decision. Your agent is your advocate and they will be able to make an assessment to make sure that you make the correct decision on choosing your deductible for your situation.

Health coverage providers: Prepare for ACA reports
Rick Krueger Guest Column
The Affordable Care Act (ACA) requires that employers, insurers, and health care exchanges report certain information to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) in early 2016. Health coverage providers, including certain employers, will file information returns with the IRS and furnish statements to individuals in 2016 to report group health coverage information for calendar year 2015. Reporting is optional for calendar year 2014. The IRS requires reporting to determine whether employees have been offered affordable, minimum essential coverage, and whether the employer is subject to shared responsibility payments under the Internal Revenue Code. Who is required to report? Employers who are considered an applicable large employer (ALE) are subject to reporting requirements. Additionally, any person or organization that provides minimum essential coverage to an individual must report to the IRS and furnish statements to individuals. This includes: • Health insurance issuers. • Plan sponsors of self-insured group health plan coverage. • The executive department or agency of a governmental unit that provides coverage under a government-sponsored program. Plan sponsors in a group of companies with common ownership or an affiliated group of companies (a controlled group) that are not an ALE, and providers (such as issuers) that are not reporting as employers, may report as separate entities, or have one entity report for the controlled group. What qualifies as an ALE? An ALE is an employer that employed an average of at least 50 full-time employees and full-time equivalents (FTEs) during the preceding calendar year. All ALEs must file the report, regardless of wheth-
IRS grants extension for ACA reports The IRS recently granted an automatic extension to all those required to file the 1094 and 1095 forms for 2015. Though the IRS is ready to receive the forms, some employers, insurers, and other providers of the minimum essential coverage will need additional time to gather, analyze and report the required information. While Notice 2016-4 grants the extension the IRS encourages employers and other coverage providers to submit statements and file the information returns as soon as possible. The new due dates are as follows: • March 31, 2016, (extended from Feb. 1) for forms or statements that must be provided to individuals (1095-B/1095-C) • May 31, 2016, (extended from Feb. 29) for forms not electronically filed that must be provided to the IRS (1094-B/1094-C and 1095-B/1095-C) • June 30, 2016, (extended from March 31) for electronically filed forms that must be provided to the IRS (1094-B/1094-C and 1095-B/1095-C) er the employer is a tax-exempt or government entity (including federal, state, local, and tribal governments). A full-time employee generally includes anyone who was employed on average at least 30 hours of service per week or 130 hours per month. Full-time equivalents are determined by adding up all of the part-time hours in a month (up to 120 hours per employee) and dividing by 120. For example, if six employees work 20 hours per week, the employer would have four FTEs. What is an ALE required to report? The ALE is required to report its contact information, a
certification that it offered its full-time employees (and their dependents) the opportunity to enroll in minimum essential coverage under an eligible employer-sponsored plan, and the number of its full-time employees for each calendar month during the calendar year. For each fulltime employee, the ALE must report the months during the calendar year for which minimum essential coverage under the plan was available and the employee’s share of the lowest cost monthly premium for self-only coverage (before any wellness discount). How we can help you prepare for the reporting requirements. Employers should take the following steps to prepare for the ACA information reporting: • Determine if you are an ALE. • Determine if you need to file and what needs to be filed. • Confirm the health benefits provided. • Decide how the required information is being tracked. • Decide who will prepare the IRS filings and statements. CLA can provide you with tools and resources to help you prepare for this requirement including: • Providing software to track information and monitor employee status. • Preparation of Forms 1095-C and 1094-C. • Responding to IRS inquiries and penalty notices. • Webinar on how health coverage providers can properly file ACA information reports. • Get a quote for ACA reporting.

Business planning for New Year
Q: 2015 has been a challenging year for my small business. Sales have plateaued and my expenses have increased. As I look forward to the New Year, I know I have to make some changes. Can you provide some direction? A: If it’s any consolation, you are not in the boat alone. Your comments indicate that your growth cycle has peaked. Now is the time for you to take a hard look at your business plan and make appropriate changes. In the beginning stages you have more time to devote to thinking of ways to grow your business. As the operation develops, more time is required to attend to the many necessary back-office duties required of any business – time that takes away from sales and marketing endeavors. If you are the primary one responsible for generating sales, you must delegate the back-office duties to others. You can either outsource or hire competent people to fill these roles. Think of it this way: If current sales are $1,000,000 and you can increase sales by 10 percent, the increased profits can more than compensate for the expense of hiring additional staff. Once you have relieved yourself of all the other distractions, you can focus on creating a sales and marketing plan to increase profits. To do this you must analyze where your sales are coming from, the costs of doing business, and your profit margins. Profit margin is the gross profit you make from the sale of each product or service. By continually seeking ways to raise the price or lower the cost, without compromising the quality, you can increase profits per sale. According to the research firm, McKinsey & Co., a 1 percent increase in the retail price can generate up to an additional 11 percent in operating profits. Do not hesitate to negotiate better pricing and

Among the 50-plus tax provisions protecting Americans from the Tax Hikes Act of 2015 is a two-year extension of both 179D tax deduction for commercial buildings. These tax incentives will reduce tax liability for property owners and architects while incentivizing investments in energy efficient technologies. The 179D tax deduction has been extended for two years from Dec. 31, 2014, through Dec. 31, 2016. The qualifying standards are increased from ASHRAE 2001 to ASHRAE 2007 for properties placed in service after Dec. 31, 2015. Private owners and CPAs are eligible for up to $1.80 per square foot for the installation of energy-saving lighting, HVAC, and building envelopment systems in new or existing commercial buildings. For the design of public buildings, the benefit can be allocated to the designer by the fed-
eral, state or local government. With the extenders package signed into law, it is surely a relief for many as we wrap up the holidays and close out the year on a high note. The tax extenders package will ensure valuable dollars remain in taxpayers’ pockets while stimulating economic growth. Take advantage of these tax saving strategies by reviewing not only your 2015 projects but also any opportunities available retroactively to 2006.

Cape Coral Pakmail store expands again Pakmail in Cape Coral has expanded its office and services for the second time in less than a year. The company is growing rapidly as it takes on more moving and freight jobs from Port Charlotte to Naples. The store at 1751 NE Pine Island Road, #155, Cape Coral, has expanded to 4,000 square feet and the staff has grown to seven. Pakmail has also seen tremendous growth as a preferred vendor for Everything But the House. “We are pleased with the tremendous growth we have seen throughout Southwest Florida,” said owner De-
nise Clements. “We have had an increase in the number of people hiring us to pack and move their items.” Pakmail packs and ships items of all sizes around the world. They have expertise in shipping valuable artwork, fragile items, antiques, large objects and specialty items. They provide packing, shipping, freighting, palleting, crating and insurance coverage for packages. “One reason I think we are seeing an increase in customers is that people are realizing we do much more than pack small packages and ship them around the world,” Clements said.
“We can handle moving large items, vehicles, boats and pretty much anything else.” Pakmail formed an alliance with Everything But the House to provide packing and shipping to its customers earlier this year. Everything But the House specializes in liquidation of personal property. Everything in the home is researched, photographed and cataloged then placed online for a worldwide auction. Pakmail in Cape Coral provides the packing, shipping, crating and freighting expertise for domestic and international auction customers.
The Pakmail at 1751 NE Pine Island Road, #155, Cape Coral, has expanded to 4,000 square feet.

The pay-as-you-go workers’ comp program — and more Part 1 of 3
As if that title did not catch your eye, just wait – there are even more value driven services than your workers’ compensation that the professional employer organizations (PEOs) of today offer. In this three-part series, we will break the PEO alignment down into the following: economics, operations and cost-tobenefit ratio. Second, we will focus on matching your wants and needs from a human resources and administrative aspect, which will enhance the alignment and the services that are available, but often underutilized. First off, a definition. A PEO is a business (also known as “employee leasing” or “staff leasing”) that provides small and mid-sized businesses of all types with an integrated suite of services. These can include: human resources (HR) administration, compliance management, safety and risk management, payroll and tax administration, legal adherence and employee benefit solutions. The company operates with its clients as a “co-employer” of the individual workers for the purpose of the HR administration and operations of running a business. PEOs help clients focus on their core competencies and displace non-revenue HR administration and operations to maintain and grow a client’s bottom line. The PEO concept is a combination of a simple outsourced payroll service business and a staffing model. The PEO has the legal, compliance and administrative responsibility for the workers, while the client company has the management and supervisory responsibility. It is difficult to maximize the “busi-

KGT using BuildClean for remodeling projects KGT Remodeling is excited to announce they are introducing the BuildClean dust control system as part of its remodeling process. The system is the new industry standard for livable remodeling. KGT will be implementing the BuildClean dust control system to help keep homeowners’ remodeling projects clean and safe. According to research, during a remodeling project, five to eight times the normal amount of dust and debris particles can accumulate in the air. This system is de-
signed to eliminate up to 90 percent of dust and debris during a home remodeling project. “BuildClean is different from the usual dust barriers, fans and vacuums,” said Greg Ulrich, president of KGT Remodeling. “The innovative dust control system is built to minimize the migration of dust throughout clients’ homes, giving them the exceptional experience they demand – and the recommendations we’re looking for.” BuildClean has been proven to dra-
matically reduce airborne jobsite dust by drawing in air, passing it through a series of filters and returning the “scrubbed” air back into the space. Ulrich explained that a remodeling project can cause dust and chaos, but this device and technology will make the home livable during a somewhat stressful time. The machine was built to create a healthier environment for family and pets, removing the large amounts of dust and particles in the air that can irritate eyes, noses and breathing.
Recovery plan necessary for finance industry There are a multitude of laws and regulations for the finance industry that specify or imply requirements for business continuity (BC)/disaster recovery (DR) planning. BC/DR planning requires going beyond the minimum requirements, to having in place plans and training to keep financial organization from failing to recover in the event of a disaster due to natural disasters (i.e., hurricanes, high winds, floods, etc.) or manmade (terrorism, power outages, technology failure, etc.) disasters. These plans address how operations will continue, the amount of downtime before critical business applications and processes are recovered, and other vital information required to continue critical operations. These requirements demand that a business impact analysis (BIA) be performed at a minimum to determine
that these laws and regulations are addressed and meet compliance requirements. Even if BC/DR plans are not specified in a law or regulation, issues of data integrity and BY LINDA a vailability HANWACKER and internal Guest Columnist controls can bring about additional demands that are identified in a BIA. Laws and regulations ensure that organizations are accountable for timely resumption of operations and limit losses. Federally chartered financial institutions have to have a demonstrable BC/DR Plan to
ensure prompt availability of funds. The bottom line is clients, employees and shareholders expect organizations to be prepared. All financial institutions should have BC/DR plans. Everyone doing business with these institutions should confirm that these plans are in place to safeguard their assets and ensure availability of their funds in the event of a disaster.
“Additionally, the BuildClean system will safeguard sensitive electronics in the house from unwanted dust buildup onsite,” he added. “Using this device in every kitchen, bathroom and home remodel will take out the excess dust accumulating in hallways and common areas.” KGT Remodeling, the five-time Sand Dollar Award-winning firm and 2015 CBIA Remodeler of the Year, is a licensed and insured residential remodeling company with more than 45 years of experience.

Will lifting weights Healthy Life Center holds grand opening help lose weight? Tony Wagner Guest column
Dear Mr. Fitness: I have been reading your column religiously for several years now and I have a question. Why do you always tell people to lift weights if they are only interested in losing weight? I thought all you should be doing is aerobics and dieting. Won’t lifting weights make you gain weight? Most people want to lose weight. — Heavy Duty Dear Heavy Duty: You know, Heavy, I believe you have written to me in the past. I am glad you are still tuning in! The thing about making sure you lift weights if you want to lose body fat is this: The more lean muscle tissue you have, the easier it will be for you to permanently (yes, for good) lose the fat. After all, that is what we wish to accomplish, the total shedding of the fat and not have it come back. (At least I hope that’s what people wish!) If you were to rely on a diet, then you can be assured of one thing: The weight will come back on you. Countless folks can attest to this truth. If you rely on aerobics only, you won’t have the fat-burning potential muscle provides you. Aerobics do not build fat burning muscle. Always remember that it is your muscles that burn your body fat. Fat gives your muscles energy, not just carbohydrates. If we were to compare the fat burning of two individuals that weighed exactly the same, but one of them had 10 percent more muscle than the other, guess what? The individual with the 10 percent more muscle would be burning fat at almost TWICE the rate as the other person! Isn’t that great? This person would be burning much more fat – even at rest – when compared to the “skinnier” person. (That’s skinnier in terms of muscle mass,) Your lean body mass, which comprises mostly skeletal muscles, needs fat to perform all of its activities. If a person possesses a large amount of muscle, their bodies are always on the search for fuel to feed those muscles. The muscles will be continually scrounging around for something to keep them functioning at a high level. This looking around for fuel to feed the muscles is called having a high metabolic rate. You know the type, someone who can eat just about anything and still be lean. High metabolic rates can be genetic true enough, but you can mimic these fortunate people by lifting weights and getting some muscles. So, if you wish to be that person that everyone envies, add a weight lifting program to your fitness regimen and begin to reap the benefits! Tony Wagner, aka Mr. Fitness, has more than 30 years of fitness and nutritional expertise. A certified personal trainer and fitness author, he helped thousands of people get into – and stay in – shape. Contact him at mrfitness1@aol.com, or call (305) 292-2930.

Year end provisions may affect your 2015 tax filings
Here are some of the significant tax law provisions that may affect your 2015 tax filings. As is becoming more common, many of these changes were only enacted year end 2015. In December, Congress passed and later, the President signed the not-so-catchy-titled-law Protecting American from Tax Hikes Act of 2015 (PATH). PATH permanently extends some 20 out of the 52 “tax-extender” provisions that previously have come up for consideration for one or two years at a time. Addressing a wide array of specialty deductions , credits and exemptions, PATH also renews, and modifies, dozens of other tax law provisions, that were due to expire for periods ranging from 2 to 5 years. If you made “better tax planning” a 2016 New Year resolution that you would like to keep, then investigating some of these key changes may help cut your tax bill:
Individual Provisions:
Enhanced American Opportunity Tax Credit. The American Opportunity Credit (AOTC) takes the permanent provisions of the Hope Scholarship Credit and increases the credit from $1,800 to 2,500 for four years of post-secondary education, and increases the beginning of the adjusted gross-income phase-out of the credit to $80,000 for single filers and to $160,000 for married filing jointly) for 2009 to 2017. The PATH legislation also makes the AOTC a permanent part of the code. Child Tax Credit. The PATH legislation makes the enhanced child tax credit permanent by setting the threshold dollar amount for purposes of computing the refundable credit at an unindexed $3,000. It also permanently extends certain modifications relating to the additional child tax credit, enabling more filers to claim the credit. Earned Income Tax Credit. The PATH legislation also further enhances the amount of the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) for certain filers. Specifically, the EITC for those with three (or more) children is permanently increased and the EITC marriage penalty is permanently reduced by increasing the income phaseout level by $5,000 for 2009 through 2017.
State and Local general sales taxes. The election to claim an itemized deduction for state and local general sales taxes in lieu of an itemized deduction for state and local income taxes has been extended and made a permanent part of the tax code. Charitable IRA Rollover Contributions. This provision, allowing a deduction for individuals at least 70 ½ years of age to exclude from gross income qualified charitable distributions from IRAs, up to a $100,000 threshold, is retroactively revived. The provision been made a permanent part of the tax code. Exclusion of Income from Discharge of Qualified Principal Residence Indebtedness. PATH continues through 2016 (two years) the exclusion from gross income for a discharge of qualified principal residence indebtedness up to a limit in the amount of $2 million dollar for married filing joint ($1 million for married individuals filing separately) . Deduction of Mortgage Insurance Premiums. PATH extends, through 2016, the deduction for qualified mortgage insurance premiums as interest for purposes of the mortgage interest deduction. The current law’s deduction phase- out after the taxpayer’s adjusted gross income (AGI) reaches certain levels has been retained. Provisions Related to Section 529 (Qualified Tuition Programs). The new legislation widens the definition of qualified education expenses for 529 accounts to include computer equipment and technology related items. Several other technical changes were made retroactive to the beginning of the 2015 tax period. Exclusion of Income from Discharge of Qualified Principal Residence Indebtedness. PATH renews through 2016 the exclusion from gross income of a discharge of qualified principal residence indebtedness up to $2 million for married filing jointly and $1 million for married filing single. Deduction of Mortgage Insurance Premiums. PATH continues, through 2016, the deduction of qualified mortgage insurance premiums as interest for purposes of the mortgage interest deduction. The deduction phases out for taxpayers with adjusted gross income exceeding $100,000.
Credit for Energy-Efficient Existing Homes. PATH, extends through January 1, 2017, the 10 percent nonbusiness energy property credit for the purchase of qualified energy efficiency improvements to existing homes.
Business Provisions
Enhanced 179 Expensing. PATH renewed and made permanent the popular business provision allowing an immediate deduction of business investment purchases. The 179 business expensing limitation of $500,000 and phase-out amounts of $2 million which were in effect from 2010 to 2014 have been permanently restored. Other technical changes for this business write-off have also been made permanent. Extended Bonus Depreciation. PATH temporarily extends bonus depreciation, the popular accelerated depreciation method often used in conjunction with 179 expensing. The bonus depreciation provisions will allow a 50% depreciation expensing for certain capital equipment placed in service during 2015, 2016 and 2017; the depreciation level is phased down to 40% in 2018 and 30 percent in 2019. Research & Experimentation credit. The R&E tax credit, a valuable business preference for research activities is made permanent, after being renewed over 16 times. Beginning in 2016, small businesses will be entitled to use the credit to offset their alternative minimum tax liability, and in some cases their payroll tax liability. The highlight changes give a short overview of this major tax legislation. Most tax observers believe that the PATH package has paved the way towards greater certainty and predictability for tax planning over the next few years. To actually benefit from these new provisions, you must working with a tax advisor who can apply the finer details of these provisions to your situation.
