Week 6 Reflection Assignment

This week we studied the correct way to set up a business and focused on licensing and taxes. While starting a business it is great to make money, but we must be aware that to operate a business legally there are certain requirements imposed which have been deemed necessary from state to state. These requirements are all different from state to state so checking on the requirements is essential before setting up shop. The licensing requirements for shop owners who are the end reseller and sell physical products are under much heavier licensing and taxation requirements then those who focus on services. The industries that sell liquor, tobacco, and other inelastic products seem to get hit the hardest because people are addicted to these products and is variably called a sin tax in many circles. The best thing to do if you are unsure about these requirements is to visit the states department of commerce website which will help you understand the state requirement.
