Introduction to the 2010 IRS Tax Calendar

watering can and garden toolsWelcome to the 2010 IRS Tax Calendar for Small Businesses and Self-Employed

We hope that this year’s gardening theme will inspire your commercial ventures, while helping you cultivate sound business practices.

Our nation’s economic climate has been rather overcast, but our entrepreneurs have brought a sunny side to the outlook. Small businesses employ about half of all private sector U.S. workers, and have generated 60 to 80 percent of net new jobs annually over the last decade.

Taxes contributed to our nation’s budget by small businesses and the self-employed represent more than 45 percent  of the total by all private firms.

So, roll up your sleeves and dig in. And remember, if this small business almanac of advice leaves you scratching your head, there are more resources available from the IRS on the Small Business and Self-Employed Web site.

This calendar is filled with useful information to help you start up and tend to your small business concerns. Tax reminders and instructions are shown by date.  There are also highlights of various tax topics related to small businesses provided in the calendar. In addition, the calendar also provides Tips for Business Success, a list of Forms and Publications, and a list of online resources and tools available for small businesses.
