Estimated tax is a tax payment made four times a year based on your reported income for the quarter. Small business owners, freelancers, and independent contractors are the most likely to be required to pay taxes quarterly because they do not have taxes deducted from their paychecks in the same way that regular employees do. Taxes can be estimated for any taxable income that isn't subject to withholding. Earned income, dividend income, rental income, interest income, and capital gains are all examples of this.

Cost accounting is a process of assigning costs to cost objects that typically include raw materials, labor, and overhead. The purpose of cost accounting is to estimate the total cost for a product or service. This can be done by adding up the costs for each type of expense.

Raw materials are the supplies used in production. Labor is the sum of salaries and wages paid to employees. Overhead is any other expense not directly related to production, such as rent, utilities, office supplies, etc.

In this course, you will be introduced to cost accounting in its simplest form. 

As A Beauty Professional, What is a  fair price for your time?

How do you determine how much to charge for a service?

Are you making the amount of money you want?

These may seem like easy questions, but most of us have difficulty coming up with the proper framework to answer some or all of these questions.  The answer depends on so many different factors. For instance, what kind of services you offer, your variable costs, your fixed costs, what region of the country you live in, how much money you need to make to satisfy your financial obligations, and your personal financial desires.  Pricing services is a dilemma for many beauty professionals, and there is so much more to pricing your service than just what you think you are worth.
