  • Administration of the Intangible Personal Property Tax in Philadelphia *
    1954] NOTE ADMINISTRATION OF THE INTANGIBLE PERSONAL PROPERTY TAX IN PHILADELPHIA * INTRODUCTION Recent trends in state taxation have demonstrated an increasing tendency to exempt intangible personal property.' Pennsylvania recently has joined most of the industrial eastern states in ceasing to obtain revenue from such a source; but, despite constant criticism,2 the Commonwealth has retained it for county purposes.3 The present tax evolved from a one * This study was financed by a grant from the Thomas Skelton Harrison Foundation, an agency created by the will of Thomas Skelton Harrison to promote good government in Philadelphia. It was prepared with the cooperation of the Finance Director of the City of Philadelphia and the staff of the Department of Collections, particularly Mr. Romanus Buckley, Deputy Commissioner of Revenue, and Mr. Joseph Tanzola of the Sanctions Division of the Department of Collections. The assistance of the Board of Revision of Taxes and its entire Personal Property Division was very helpful, particularly the constructive criticism of Mr. Wallace Bromley, Chief Personal Property Assessor, and Mr. Samuel Shmukler, Chief Clerk of the Personal Property Division. 1.

Thorndike This article uses the history of the National Tax Association (NTA), the leading twentieth-century organization of tax professionals, to strengthen our empiri- cal understanding of the disciplinary encounter between law and the social sciences. Building on existing sociolegal scholarship, this article explores how the NTA embodied tax law's ambivalent historical interaction with public economics. Since its founding in 1907, the NTA has changed dramatically from an eclectic and catholic organization of tax professionals with a high public profile to an insular, scholarly association of mainly academic public finance economists.

  • Intangible Asset Monetization the Promise and the Reality
    Working Paper #03 Intangible Asset Monetization The Promise and the Reality Kenan Patrick Jarboe Roland Furrow Athena Alliance April 2008 About Athena Alliance Athena Alliance is in the vanguard of identifying, understanding, analyzing, and educating on the information, intangibles, and innovation (I 3 or I-Cubed) economy. Information, knowledge, and other intangibles now power economic prosperity and wealth creation. Intangible assets—worker skills and know-how, informal relationships that feed creativity and new ideas, high-performance work organizations, formal intellectual property, brand names—are the new keys to competitive advantage. Intangibles and information drive our innovation process, a combination of formal research and informal creativity. These elements combine to produce productivity and improvement gains needed to maintain prosperity. While the economic rules have changed, public policy has not caught up. Governments are struggling with ways to utilize information, foster development of intangibles, and promote innovation and competitiveness in this new economy. Policymakers are grappling with the urgent need to frame policy questions in light of the changing economic situation. Issues of developing and utilizing information, managing intangibles, and fostering innovation underlie discussions on a variety of subjects, such as intellectual property rights, education and training policy, economic development, technology policy, and trade policy. Crafting new policies in these areas requires infusing a better understanding

  • Real & Personal Property
    CHAPTER 5 Real Property and Personal Property CHRIS MARES (Appleton, Wsconsn) hen you describe property in legal terms, there are two types of property. The two types of property Ware known as real property and personal property. Real property is generally described as land and buildings. These are things that are immovable. You are not able to just pick them up and take them with you as you travel. The definition of real property includes the land, improvements on the land, the surface, whatever is beneath the surface, and the area above the surface. Improvements are such things as buildings, houses, and structures. These are more permanent things. The surface includes landscape, shrubs, trees, and plantings. Whatever is beneath the surface includes the soil, along with any minerals, oil, gas, and gold that may be in the soil. The area above the surface is the air and sky above the land. In short, the definition of real property includes the earth, sky, and the structures upon the land. In addition, real property includes ownership or rights you may have for easements and right-of-ways. This may be for a driveway shared between you and your neighbor. It may be the right to travel over a part of another person’s land to get to your property. Another example may be where you and your neighbor share a well to provide water to each of your individual homes. Your real property has a formal title which represents and reflects your ownership of the real property. The title ownership may be in the form of a warranty deed, quit claim deed, title insurance policy, or an abstract of title.

As such, it seems fitting to begin by thanking my two favorite professors at Pacific, Caroline Cox and Robert Benedetti. Their work inspired my own and their encouragement and advice led me to pursue graduate work in history at Brandeis University. I am forever grateful for their support.

  • The International Framework for Access and Benefit Sharing of Genetic Resources and Associated Traditional Knowledge
    The Convention on Biodiversity and the Nagoya Protocol: Intellectual Property Implications Chapter 7 Private Contract Law I. Introduction Ultimately, genetic resources and associated traditional knowledge (TK) are transferred for R&D and other purposes from provider to users through private contracts which are legally binding documents between the two parties. Such contracts can take a number of forms, including bioprospecting agreements, material transfer agreements (MTAs) and collaborative research agreements.296 These contracts may be considered benefit sharing agreements under the Nagoya Protocol provided they contain the terms for the sharing of benefits that may arise from the access and removal of the genetic resource and its utilization. The keepers of those genetic resources in the provider countries, whether they are the national ABS authority or an indigenous group, must therefore negotiate the terms of such contracts carefully in order to safeguard their interests. Recent trends in ABS agreements show that “natural product discovery is found largely in smaller discovery companies, semi-governmental or governmental entities and universities around the world. Elements of large pharmaceutical natural products programs have been spun off into non- profits or semi-governmental entities, and compound libraries have been given away or sold off cheaply.”297 The International Federation of Pharmaceutical Manufacturers Association (hereafter IFPMA) estimates that of 19 pharmaceutical multinationals that previously had natural products programs, only 7 currently have such programs, most of them Japanese.298 Laird and Wynberg point out that there is greater use of genetic resources and TK by the cosmetic industries, while ABS principles are not always understood in other industries such as botanicals and food/beverages.299 Negotiating contracts using knowledge of the law takes time and practice.

  • Simplification, Progression and a Level Playing Field by William Vickrey, Columbia University February, 1996 Discussion Paper Se
    Simplification, Progression and a Level Playing Field by William Vickrey, Columbia University February, 1996 Discussion Paper Series No. 9596-05 SIMPLIFICATION, PfWmFSSIQN, AND A LEVEL PLAYING FIELD. William Vickrey Columbia University February 9, 199* With sufficiently well-reasoned and principled reform of tax systems, it is possible to achieve practical simplicity and a reduction in perverse incentives to a far greater degree than under any of the "flat-rate" proposals being advanced, without significant sacrifice of progressivity. But it is necessary to eliminate many of the bells and whistles that confer benefits on selected constituencies, and to refrain from attempts to use the income tax as a device to encourage particular activities. There are usually more effective and transparent methods available to accomplish these objectives far more efficiently if done directly and explicitly rather than by tax tinkering motivated in part by a desire to reduce the apparent magnitude of the government "budget" by "off-budget" "tax expenditures". Income Tax Simplicity and progressivity can be realized by dividing the income tax into a flat-rate normal tax, specified exclusively on a source basis, and collected largely at source, complemented by a progressive surtax with a high personal exemption collected on the basis of individual returns filed by a small minority of higher income taxpayers, exclusively on a destination principle. This would be a return to the pre-1934 U.S. practice of having a distinct normal and surtax, and similar in many respects to the British system. A clear division between a source=based and a destination-based portion would avoid most of the complications, anomalies, arbitrary distinctions and perverse incentives involved in the present foreign tax credit system.
