  • When Will an LLC's Trade Or Business Be Imputed to Its Members?
    When Will an LLC’s Trade or Business be Imputed to its Members? by Sheldon I. Banoff [Published in the Journal of Taxation, September 1997] The imputation of a partnership’s trade or business to all or some of its partners can be relevant whenever a taxpayer’s status as being involved in a trade or business has tax consequences. The growing popularity of LLCs provokes the question, when, if ever, on LLC’s trade or business will be attributed to its members. If imputation occurs, which of the members will be deemed engaged in the LLC’s trade or business? In making this analysis, does the sparse tax law relating to imputing a partnership’s trade or business to all or some of its partners provide meaningful guidance? It is submitted that, where a partnership’s trade or business would be imputed to all or some of its partners for certain operative purposes of federal tax law, attribution similarly should be made from an LLC to all or some of the LLC’s members, for the same purposes. Imputation in an LLC should be to those members who either have the authority to participate, or in fact actively participate, in the day-to-day management or operations of the LLC’s trade or business. Accordingly, imputation of the LLC’s trade or business should occur to the following members: 1. Where the LLC is a member-managed entity, to all members. 2. Where the LLC is manager-managed, to (a) those who have the authority to actively participate in the day-to-day management decisions of the LLC (i.e., typically those members who are the managers) and (b) those nonmanager members who in fact actively so participate.

  • International Trade
    International Trade or centuries, people of the world have traded. From the ancient silk routes and spice trade to modern F shipping containers and satellite data transfers, nations have tied their economies to the rest of the world by complex flows of products and services. Free trade, which allows traders to interact without barriers imposed by government, can improve the living standards of people because it reduces prices and increases the variety of goods and services for consumers. It can also create new jobs and opportunities, and it encourages innovative uses of resources. However, even though free trade can benefit an economy as a whole, specific groups may be hurt. While certain sectors will experience job gains, others will face job losses. Still, societies throughout history have found that the benefits of international trade outweigh the costs. Why Trade? As consumers, all of us have an interest in trading they live, is because they believe they will be better with other countries. We often are unaware of trade’s off by trading. When we consider the alternative— influence on product prices and the quality and each of us producing everything for ourselves—trade availability of the goods we buy. But we all benefit simply makes more sense. from the greater abundance and variety of products and the lower prices that trading with others makes Trade is beneficial because it allows people to possible. Without trade, countries become isolated. specialize, or concentrate their work in the type of The quality of their goods and services lags behind production that they do best.

  • Concept Note: Meeting on Enhancing Cooperative Trade for Decent Workpdf
    Concept Note Meeting on enhancing cooperation and trade between cooperatives and other SSE organizations for decent work Date: 12 June 2018 09:00-17:00 Location: ILO Geneva, Room VI (R3 South), 4 route des Morillons, Entry building R2 North Background As member-driven and people-centred organizations, cooperatives and other social and solidarity economy (SSE) enterprises and organizations play an important role in advancing productive and decent work.1 These organizations are well-placed in contributing to the implementation and achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), including Goal 8 on decent work and economic growth. Through providing job opportunities and improving livelihoods, the cooperative model can support vulnerable segments of society such as unemployed youth, single female headed households, migrant workers, indigenous communities and people with disabilities. Beside their inclusiveness, cooperatives aim to enable equitable opportunities to small farmers, traders and crafts people by pooling resources to achieve economies of scale for access to inputs, credit, technology and markets. Cooperatives facilitate individual producers’ collective voice and negotiation power with key players across the supply chain for fairer returns to their members and communities. These collective efforts can foster participation and social dialogue across broader policy domains at national and international level. Cooperatives are guided by internationally agreed principles and values that prioritize social well-being, democracy, self-help, equality and solidarity among others, while providing economic opportunities to their members. The principles were developed by the international cooperative movement (ICA), and are adopted by the ILO in the Promotion of Cooperatives Recommendation, 2002 (No. 193). Principle No. 6 is on promoting cooperation among cooperatives at local, national, regional and international levels to serve their members most effectively and strengthen the cooperative movement.

  • Members' Operating Covenant Cooperative Coffees Is Comprised
    Members’ Operating Covenant Cooperative Coffees is comprised of small-scale, Fair Trade roasters who are building their businesses upon the ideals of alternative trade. We came together to form a legally structured buying cooperative, because the volumes we need as small-scale roasters would have made it impossible to import directly (one of the main tenets of fair trade) from a variety of coffee farmer cooperatives. Collectively as Cooperative Coffees, we have established commercial relationships with over twenty cooperatives based in democratic and participatory development models in producer countries throughout the world. As members of Cooperative Coffees, we strive to purchase all of our coffees from our partner cooperatives or from other like-minded producer cooperatives in strict adherence to the following fairtrade criteria: ● Paying fair prices to the producers ● Offering support for cooperative workplaces ● Promoting greater consumer consciousness ● Encouraging environmental sustainability ● Providing financial and technical support ● Respecting cultural identity However, our intentions as fair trade coffee traders go beyond the simple act of buying and selling excellent quality coffees. We also unite under the common desire to demonstrate through our own example that alternative rules to trade are possible both at home and abroad. We understand that to speak of a collaborative spirit within our cooperative, we must make an ongoing effort to maintain mutually beneficial relationships and a sense of collectivity amongst the roaster/members

Cooperatives allow farmers to control their com- modities beyond the farmgate and into the marketplace. For many cooperatives, this control extends only to the first-handler level, where member commodities are assembled, graded, and sold in bulk form. Others have extended farmers’ reach to supermarket shelves by producing, processing, and marketing consumer products. Cooperatives have also taken their place alongside investor- owned agribusinesses as global marketers of food and fiber products. Cooperatives-Going Global Fueled by population
