what are some things you teach a 2 1/2 year old?

We Answered:

When my son was that age I started teaching him the letter sounds. He was decoding words at 3, though he didn't really know he was reading.

I used a lot of physical activities with him such as painting letters on an outside wall with a bucket of water and a big brush. We also did a lot in the bathtub with foam soap. I would draw letters on the wall and he would tell me their sound when I pointed to them.

Claiming 2 dependents (me and my husband)?

We Answered:

First of all, on your W-4 worksheet it says you can claim an extra exemption if you are married and your spouse does NOT work, so that doesn't apply to you, so you did right by claiming one. Whoever told you that if you claim 2 (especially if your spouse claims 1) you risk owing when you file is correct.

Now, the Mark Kay business. You don't itemize for that. You show the business expenses on a schedule C along with the income. That has nothing to do with itemizing, which is a different process and has to do with personal expenses, not business expenses. You still can deduct the business expenses even if you don't have enough deductible personal expenses to itemize.

Depending on how much you make on the Mary Kay business, unless it's very little, you should probably be making quarterly estimated payments for that. (I assume you are saying that you have a job where you are an employee in addition to the Mary Kay). If you aren't making quarterly payments, you will most likely end up owing at tax time due to the taxes on the Mary Kay income.

The best advice I can give is to see a CPA or enrolled agent (NOT Block, Hewitt or Liberty) as soon as you can. From your question, there is a lot you don't understand about taxes, and you'd be wise to get that sorted out before the year ends, while you can still do something about it.

You say you didn't file last year. Were you doing Mary Kay then? If you had $400 income from MK, even if you didn't have another job and didn't file a joint return, you were required to file.

Totalling up different worksheets in excel

We Answered:

make a new sheet titled "total". in the C1 cell, you just type in =SUM(b1,b2,b3,b4,b5,b6,b7,b8,b9,b10,b11,… then on the a line type in the months you want to specify. then in the b line, type the value corrosponding to the month. leave blank all that you don't want to find. for example, if you want july - september, and you have 100 in each cell, then you do:

july l august l september
100 l 100 l 100
=SUM(b1,b2,b3,b4,b5,b6,b7,b8,b9,b10,b1… l

which means you get 300 in c1
