Corporate doublespeak: subsidies vs ?incentives?
2008-06-10 14:19:00
I walked into a petrol station along a busy road in Penang last night and engaged in some small talk with the cashier. I asked him what kind of impact the petrol price hike has had on his collection. “In ringgit terms, it has gone up,” he replied. “But in terms of litres sold, there has ...
Chrysler extends June incentives on most Dodge vehicles
2008-06-06 08:00:00
Chrysler extends June incentives on most Dodge vehicles Chrysler's Let's Refuel America campaign may not be increasing the automaker's sales figures, but that's not stopping Chrysler from extending the program on most Dodge vehicles. From now until the end of June, Dodge will be offering increased incentives on most its vehicles — with the largest incentives being placed on the company's thirstiest vehicles. In addition to cash back or the Let's Refuel America deal, Dodge will be offering both incentive programs on some of its vehicles. The biggest deals can be had on the Dodge Ram, with customers able to choose from as much as $5,000 cash back or $3,000 cash back and the Let's Refuel America gas card. Durango buyers can choose from a similar scheme, with the gas card coming with $1,000 cash back. Almost any Dodge vehicle powered by a V8 will see some combination of cash back and the $2.99 gas guarantee. Dodge's smallest vehicle, the Ca...

High gas prices allow Toyota to slash Prius incentives
2008-05-15 15:51:00
With sales of many car and truck models cratering in recent months as gas prices continued to climb and the real estate market has continued its melt down, there has been one notable exception. Toyota has seen sales of the pioneering hybrid car climb by more than 67 percent in April compared to 2007. Toyota has been able to achieve this while slashing the incentives that they introduced after federal tax credits expired for the Prius. In 2007, Toyota spent $1,471 per vehicle in sales incentives, an amount which dropped to only $123 this year. Even Toyota hasn't been immune to the overall sales downturn, as sales have dropped 3.3 percent so far this year. Toyota is currently capacity constrained for Prius production although that situation should change in 2009 when extra capacity is expanded along with the introduction of the third-gen model.[Source: Detroit News]

Wrong Incentives Undermine Medical Diagnoses

In medicine, proper diagnosis is essential to effective treatment and healing, so I was disturbed (but not surprised) to see yet another example of how incentives in the U.S. health care system undermine proper diagnosis. Today’s example comes from the Wall Street Journal: Many in health-policy circles have focused on how the current health-care payment ...

Restoring Film Incentives is a Financially Sound Idea
2008-04-23 14:00:00
During the past week, I have seen up close just what happens when Hollywood comes to town. Being booted out of my office for a week seems a small price to pay for allowing a major motion picture to be filmed in our state. The benefits to South Carolina far outweigh any slight inconvenience or blocked street. In 2006, South Carolina took a bold step in developing knowledge based industry jobs with the passage of the SC Motion Picture Incentive Act. The Act is comprehensive. It was designed to recruit new dollars to our economy and create good high paying job opportunities for South Carolinians in the motion picture and television industries. As important, the Act also rewards film producers for spending money with our South Carolina businesses or investing in South Carolina businesses that support these industries. Finally, the Act created collaborative training opportunities with our institutes of higher education, creating South Carolina graduates to participate in one of America?...
Buyers offered incentives in Spain
2008-04-17 02:00:00
Prospective buyers are being encouraged to purchase a new-build Spanish property by various "freebies", industry analysts have revealed. According to the Foreign Property Buyer website, some builders are offering incentives such as cars, mortgage perks and even cash in order to attract customers. This is because the Spanish housing market has been affected by the downturn in the global economy, a development which is directly impacting on their businesses. While the state of the market may appear to be "bad news" for investors, the website has suggested that investors take advantage of the situation. Foreign Property Buyer commented: "It is an excellent time to see how many freebies you can get thrown in with your build." The online portal added that if investors find out what incentives are being offered by companies, they can negotiate for similar perks with their developer. This comes after the Independent recommended that investors consider pu...

Retain Incentives For E&P
2008-04-08 15:51:00
The withdrawal of tax benefits for petroleum refineries, proposed in the budget, needs to be seen in the proper perspective. There is clearly no shortage of domestic refining capacity. There is much scope for exports of petro- products. In fact, petro-goods are now our biggest export item.  But the idea that the exchequer needs to continue propping up export capacities with generous tax exemptions is thor0ughly questionable. Multi-year fiscal benefits for capital intensive oil refineries may well mean actual misallocation of resources and over-investment, in what remains a rather poor country.   That is why the move to do away with 100% income- tax holiday available on refinery profits, for seven years, as per Section 80 IE (9) of the I-T Act, makes ample sense. Reports say that at least three upcoming refinery projects, in Bhatinda, Bina and Paradeep, would be affected. But oil refineries need to be viable sans fiscal prop-ups. Also, proper project management and fast-forward...

S’pore’s tax rates competitive but tweaks to incentives necessa

S’pore’s tax rates competitive but tweaks to incentives necessary By Yvonne Cheong, SINGAPORE : Tax experts have said Singapore’s corporate tax rates remain competitive, but tweaks to incentive schemes may be necessary to ensure the country continues to attract the right investments. Most are also hoping for the lowering of the top personal income tax rate or a one-off rebate for individual taxpayers during this Friday’s Budget announcement. They said expectations are higher because of the projected budget surplus of between S$3 billion and S$8 billion. Pointing to big projects like the REC solar energy plant snared by the Economic Development Board last year, tax experts said it is clear Singapore’s tax regime has remained competitive. However, they noted that lowering of the corporate tax rate to 18 percent over the years has, ironically, made some incentive schemes less attractive. Owi Kek Hean, Executive Director and Head of Tax, KPMG, said: “...

Builder incentives on the way out?
2008-01-31 15:19:00
Read this snippet from a transcript of builder Centex’s recent conference call with Wall Street analysts (Thank you, Seeking Alpha!) … Alex Barron - Agency Trading: Hey, guys. Wanted to ask you questions on this transparent pricing strategy. I guess, I am just trying to understand it seems to be obviously working and it seems pretty logical so I am trying to figure out why do you suppose other builders aren’t copying what you are doing and if they did what would you do compared to that or relative to that? Timothy Eller - Chairman and Chief Executive Officer: Well I don’t know the answer to that. I would speculate that from standpoint of some private builders they may just not have the ability to do that. And based on the further question, what we are seeing is increasingly more and more of the public builders doing… doing just that because it’s it really is the reality of where the mortgage markets are today.

Have you been having some problems with regards to your employees' productivity? There are times of the year when the employees simply do not perform as well as they used to.

Credit Card Incentives Posted By : Arthor Pens
2007-12-22 21:48:00
In the highly competitive credit card market today, the pressure is on the card companies to create and maintain innovative benefits and programs to lure and keep customers. Setting financial goals helps direct financial planning. Examples of financial goals are: "To retire at age 50 with a personal net worth of $800,000 American," or "To buy a house in 3 years paying a monthly mortgage servicing cost that is no more than 25% of my gross income". It is not uncommon to have several goals, some short term, and some long term. Read more about finance.
