Frequently Asked Questions about Tax

  • A tax is a mandatory financial charge imposed on a person or an organization for the purpose of funding government expenditures and projects. Taxation can be levied on personal income, corporate profits, and sales of goods, and is regulated by tax laws set by governments for calculating how much is owed.

    An understanding of taxation is important for any individual or organization looking to build wealth as taxes are collected on income, assets, and profits. Understanding tax law is especially important for businesses, which often use savvy accounting practices like depreciation strategies and transfer pricing between business units to reduce liabilities.

    Multinational corporations also must be able to navigate the complex and ever-changing regulations of international taxation. Although companies have frequently used tax evasion strategies that left host countries without revenue, recent global initiatives like the OECD/ G20 Inclusive Framework on Base Erosion and Profit Shifting (BEPS) project have been working to improve the transparency and fairness of the international tax environment.

  • Whether on a local, federal, or international level, taxes can have a major impact on the profits of an organization. Thus, financial decision-makers in a company such as chief financial officers (CFOs) need this background to make smart, strategic decisions about tax planning.

    Accountants are also responsible for helping both individuals and companies evaluate different tax planning strategies that can benefit them. With individuals, they may be managing allowances, deductions, and rebates as they prepare their federal tax returns at the end of the year. Similarly, organizations can utilize various exemptions and exclusions to reduce their tax burden, and even transfer pricing strategies if the company has affiliated holdings.

    According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, accountants make a median salary of $71,550 per year, and their job growth is expected to be faster than average as they will be needed by new and expanding companies alike.

  • Yes. Coursera offers a wide range of online courses and Specializations on tax, including business and federal taxation, as well as international tax law. These courses are presented by top-ranked institutions from around the world like the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and Universiteit Leiden, so you don’t have to sacrifice the quality of your education to learn online.
