How long should i keep old house statements, bank statements, utilities, etc.?




Answers: Statements relating to the tax basis for ANY asset (eg the house) should be kept at least until the tax year when you SELL the asset is no longer open for audit. That means the clock does not start until you sell the house. Unless the utility bills relate to a BUSINESS, they are not deductible and can be disposed of as soon as you receive the next bill showing the last one was paid. Bank statements OFTEN fall into the same category. Even if they DO show deductible expenses, without the actual receipts, they are useless in a audit. They are unnecessary if you have receipts.
if it is for tax purposes then the irs says 7years

Just get lolly from a atm next go online after and it said ive took 170 out when i individual took 70 out?

anyone else ever had this problem and do u know if i will go and get the money back freshly phoned barclays and they said i will need to ring them tuesday if it aint gone spinal column in its unmistakably the atm whats my chances of gettin it bk


Answers: You can dispute this next to your bank. Every ATM have a record of how much money they endow with out so they will probably check with the piece of equipment (unfortunately they don't take your word for it) which isn't terribly difficult and should take in the region of a wekk. If it turns out that you did only bring back lb70 then they'll make available you your money back. I'd articulate your chances are fundamentally good. If they eliminate to give you your money posterior then you can travel to the FSA.
The chances are suitable, the process is called Reciprocity. The ATM that you took the money out of have to balance respectively week, and therefore if it give you the wrong amount, it will be lb100 over.
The bad word is that it can take up to 3 weeks to acquire your money back to you.

What are some of the benefits of using the cost of the assets?




Answers: This is probably a finance valuation question.

Using cost of assets allows valuation regardless of capital structure of the company (ie. how much debt vs. equity it has).

It's funny how the people below have no clue what they are talking about.
For what one might ask?

To pay for them.well you go to jail if you don't use the cost of the assets to pay for them.

To write off your taxes...doesn't make sense to write off less than the cost and you go to jail again if you use more than the cost on you tax return.

I guess what I am saying is we would like a little more info.
What class is this for. My best answer is, the COST of an asset is OBJECTIVE. The VALUE is much more SUBJECTIVE. You should KNOW how much you paid for something. The only SURE way to know how much it is currently worth is to sell it.
