Foundations are mainly used for philanthropic or estate planning purposes. In terms of the legal structure, a PPIF lies somewhere between an offshore company and an offshore trust.
Functionally a private foundation differs from an offshore company in that a foundation cannot engage directly in commercial business activity, although it may own investments such as property, stocks, bonds and companies.
The foundation has a founder, protector, beneficiary and council members. There are no owners to a Panama Foundation. A “Letter of Wishes” may be written by the protector to specify how the foundation’s assets should be handled following the protector’s death.
Benefits
* Protects assets – Since the PPIF is not owned by anyone (it has no owners), the assets of the PPIF can’t be claimed if the founder, council members, protector or beneficiaries have unpaid debt.
* According to Panama law, the assets of a PPIF are non-freezeable. There are some exceptions, but if the money has been in the foundation for over 3 years, it’s certainly non-freezeable.
* Foundations can be used to help family members financially according to the protectors instructions, and forced heirship rules are specifically excluded.
* It can be used to collect royalties.
* Tax free for income derived outside of Panama.
Cash flow defined
The capitalization rate is calculated using a measure of cash flow called net operating income (NOI), not net income. Generally, NOI is defined as income (earnings) before depreciation and interest expenses:
* Net Operating Income (NOI) = Net income + depreciation + interest expenses; whereas Cash Flow = Net Income + depreciation (interest being a cash outlay).
Depreciation in the tax and accounting sense is excluded from the valuation of the asset, because it does not directly affect the cash generated by the asset. To arrive at a more careful and realistic definition, however, estimated annual maintenance expenses or capital expenditures will be included in the non-interest expenses.
Although NOI is the generally-accepted figure used for calculating cap rates (financing and depreciation are ignored), this is often referred to under various terms, including simply income.
In Australia there are tax incentives for negatively geared properties because the expenses of running an investment property are a tax offset. Under S43 of the income tax assessment act, capital works depreciation can be claimed at 2.5% of the cost of construction. Cash flow is directly effected by the tax payer paying less tax up front or receiving a larger tax return for prepaid tax when the depreciation is processed.
Qualified Human Resources, Loyal, and Prosperous.
Human resources (HR) quality is the key driver of the company. With the human resources company that is able to move well then a company will be able to grow and do business effectively and efficiently. Qualified human resources is not enough to run the company in the long run. Required employee loyalty to the company where he works. By building an emotional relationship between the company and the employees then an employee will make every effort to contribute the best for the company. Without the emotional connection between the company and the employee then the employee only carry out its obligations without providing the ability for the company. If the obligation has been done then he would just walk in place without providing innovation, creativity, and brilliant ideas that can actually be done if an employee has an emotional bond that makes him want to help build and develop the company for the better.
Quality human resources, and not necessarily loyal to contribute the best he had. Humans who have a need will certainly try to meet all your needs. If an employee feels that he has no income to meet their needs then of course he will try to find a way to meet all needs. When this happens the employee to find a side job that will take time, mind, and strength so that he can not provide the maximum capacity at the company. Why sometimes some companies conduct meetings, or budgeting in the hotel office when they have the same facilities with the hotel? Maybe for some people this is a waste, but the good effects are the participants meeting or meetings will be more concentrated and give their thoughts to the maximum without being distracted by other problems such as traffic on the way to the office, problems at home, and constraints outside the company . With the support of the company so that employees are not troubled by other things outside the company the employee is expected to give the maximum contribution for the development of the company.
Manager of the Open, Decisive, and the Democrats
Leadership of a manager is pointing the right way for the company. They are a ship captain who will determine whether the company will achieve the goal or not. Authoritative leadership must be owned by a company manager, but the authority does not mean being closed to employees. It is precisely the attitude of a leader who is willing to openly receive feedback and suggestions from subordinates will assist a manager in leading a company or a subordinate department. Firmness in leading and making decisions is required by a manager, because in the hands of their decisions will be the road taken by the company will determine the development and company operations. Manager must also be accountable for their decisions in front of the directors are not always blame the incompetent subordinates perform the command. Should any decision-making involves many parties, be they subordinates or other relevant parties. With the input of others then the manager can consider and take appropriate decisions and satisfy many parties.
The relationship between manager and subordinate should also be good and awake. As much as there may be two-way relationship between managers and subordinates, rather than unidirectional relationship where the manager kept giving orders to subordinates without going to hear complaints and feelings of his subordinates. When there are such harmonious family relationships in a company it will create a solid team work and strong in running the company.

But if successful it will provide benefits and prosperity for its owner.

Management, which is part of the planning, managing, and running a business. This component can be referred to as the backend component that is behind the scenes.
Strength of the brand or image, that charisma, emotional strength which is owned by the company and represent the views / feelings of the people against the company or product.
Product or Service, the components are sold or offered to the market. This component can be called as a front end for this component in front. This component is dealing with the public.
Partners, namely those who helped in running the business.
Customers, namely those who will accept bids or buy products and services offered.
I will discuss the above components one by one with the criteria, principle, and standards that need to be met in order for each component can function optimally as expected. Each component can not stand alone because of disruption in one component will interfere with other components. I will write my thoughts based on experience, business management books, and case studies on specific companies. In this post I will discuss the management component. And I will continue in subsequent writings.

Management of an enterprise is the lifeblood of a company. Management determines the growth or bankruptcy of a company. With the existence of a management and good management then a company will be able to survive all the pressures, constraints and obstacles that exist. Will even grow into bigger and better. In managing the company then there are principles and standards where these things will greatly help the development of the company when applied properly. Principle and the standard is not an absolute value in the success of a company. Not always a company that has done everything well to be successful. Sometimes there are several barriers or obstacles that can not be avoided for example, deceived or disaster-stricken co-workers as well as other constraints. Here are some of the principles and standards are expected to support the advancement and development of an enterprise:
- Before a firm stand, then usually the initial capital is a constraint that must be met before a company runs. Not always a big capital would provide a big advantage. Effective management and efficient capital will provide the maximum benefit. For us we have to do the calculation of capital and operational costs required for companies within the foreseeable future. We must be able to provide a secure budget for its operations in some future time. So not only secure the budget for today and tomorrow. With the security budget in the long run firms will be able to survive if you run into problems or disasters that are sudden and not previously taken into account.
- By doing the planning and design firms are mature, the company will be ready to face many obstacles and hurdles that have been previously calculated. For example in making a product then we should do some research first on the market, the consumer, competitor products, and constraints that may arise so that our products are not well targeted and killed when exposed to various pressures and constraints that arise. Currently the use of information technology in business activities can facilitate and accelerate the company’s planning. The system used is called Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system which is doing the planning with the concept of Operations Management with an integrated application. Some management activities can be helped by these systems such as inventory management, financial management, reporting, manufacturing management, and other activities.
Comfortable Work Environment and Support
A worker spends almost half his life in a day at the office. So that the office is the second place after the house which became the longest in which the worker resides. For that office a comfortable environment, conducive and supportive work is absolutely necessary. Work environment does not mean just the office, but also including work atmosphere, and the relationships among company employees. When one part of the existing work environment that makes an employee uncomfortable it will impact on the declining performance and contribution of these employees to the company.
Office is a place to work where the comfort of the office depends on the cleanliness, neatness, tranquility, beauty, air temperature and accordingly, as well as furniture and room layout is good. The device also supports the work that needs to be addressed. Do not force savings on office devices that can inhibit labor. Some companies sometimes prefer to maintain the old computer crashes for reasons still usable, but it lags and parents tools to make time work and sometimes inhibit older workers on when the device is corrupt. Comfortable office will make employees feel at home and not in a hurry to leave office so that the worker is more concentrated in doing his job. Family atmosphere in the office needs to be fostered so that employees feel as part of the company and have a sense of responsibility to the company to maintain the good name of the company. There must be no jealous nature, cynical, or there are disputes between employees because it would disrupt the work and performance of the company.
Please note also how the employees depart and return from work. When employees live too far away from the office then to think about how when constrained traffic jams and being late at the office. It is better to pick the company provides employees because in addition to helping employees will also familiarize employees because there is story time in transit from or to the office.
Usually it is said that the economic problems that can face a marriage are the cause of many divorces but it seems that this is not so true if economic problems from the economy in general.
The Huffington Post published the results of a study by the University of Virginia shows that in times of recession or economic crisis reduced the divorce rate. Ie less people get divorced when the economy is a period of recession with economic problems.
The explanation for this is due mainly to two factors.
1. The first is that marriages are united and understand more in order to cope with the economic crisis more likely to live in the environment.
2. The second is that in times of recession are so broken marriages who have no money to fund the divorce is a costly process.

Recently we were talking about taxes in modules, the advantages and disadvantages to choose between one kind of tax or another. Many times it’s a difficult situation when it comes to keeping the accounts for a small business. But from here, I would ensure that if we have the facts straight and understand me the concepts, it is difficult to estimate what kind of taxation or bookkeeping mode is best for us.
The tax by direct assessment is a way of quantifying the purposes of tax base with real data provided by the contribute. Type of estimate is subdivided into direct estimate normal and simplified direct estimation:
* The estimated direct normal, to deduce, as a rule, all expenses required to obtain income.
* The direct estimation Simplified unless waiver applies to entrepreneurs or professionals whose net turnover does not exceed the amount indicated in the tax law, and establishes a percentage of net income deductible in respect of supplies and costs difficult to justify.
The best way to tell is always contact our business consultant. Normally, the advisor can and should be able to assess the best way to tax our taxes. Otherwise, we risk being wrong.
