Answer:

In simple words, any company operating a business do not want to allocate much price to the land as it is non current asset and also it does not depreciate in value over time.

The depreciation amount reduces the taxable income of the year which further results in less taxable amount. Thus, resulting in higher profits for the company.

Nelson Ovalles worked as a cable installer for Cox Rhode Island Telecom, LLC, under an agreement with a third party, M&M Com
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

a. Is Cox liable to Cayer?

No

b. Are independent contractors the same as employees?

No

c. What is the difference?

Ovalles cannot be considered Cox's employee because Cox didn't control the performance of Ovalles and didn't have contact with him.

Independent contractors are not covered by labor and employment laws, and they are responsible for paying their own taxes, including self-employment taxes. A contractor does not work on a salary basis, their work and pay must be specified in a contract.

Explanation:

This is an actual court case where the Supreme Court of Rhode Island ruled in favor of Cox Communications in February, 2014.

The court ruled that Ovalles was an employee for M&M, and that M&M had an independent contractor relationship with Cox Communications. Additionally, Ovalles was also an independent contractor for M&M, not an employee. There existed no direct relationnship between Cox and Ovalles.

Even though Ovalles and other independent contractors use both Cox's and M&M's logos on their vans and uniforms, this was done so consumers could identify them. The fact that an identification is needed so customers can determine the function of a technician, doesn't imply that those technicians are actually employees of the firm nor they actually a method of control over the technicians.

Since Cox didn't control the performance of Ovalles and didn't have contact with him, then there was no reason to consider him an employee of Cox.

The plaintiff, Barbara Cayer probably made a mistake when it included Cox in the lawsuit (since it is a large company), and she would have had a better case against M&M because that company did have control over Ovalles's performance and did have contact with him. But since M&M was a much smaller firm, they decided to go after the big fish. Later they tried to include M&M into the lawsuit but it was rejected since the Supreme Court had not made their ruling yet.

ziro4ka [17]

Manuel is retired and receives a fixed payment from his pension each there is inflation when the buying power of his pension will fall

This is further explained below.

<h3>What is inflation?</h3>

Generally, Inflation refers to the rate at which prices continue to grow during a certain period of time, and the term may also refer to inflation itself. In most cases, inflation is assessed on a broad scale, such as the overall increase in prices or the growth in the cost of living in a particular nation.

To put inflation in its most basic form, it may be thought of as the general upward trend in the prices of goods and services over time. What this implies is that a dollar spent now won't purchase as much in the future. In other words, it will lower your ability to purchase things in the future.

In conclusion, Manuel is now retired and receives a certain amount from his pension on an annual basis. In the event that there is inflation, Manuel will be able to buy a lesser total amount with his pension money.
