Senior Needs Planning, 2E
Dearborn Manufacturer: Dearborn a Kaplan Professional Company ProductGroup: Book Binding: Paperback ASIN: 079315216X |
Book Description
This course identifies the financial challenges faced by typical retirees and describes solutions to meet them. The first part of the text addresses the key challenges to financial security in retirement. Topics discussed include the financial challenges of retirement as well as strategies for meeting them. The second section is a case study that zeroes in on the central concern of every retiree: how to set up a budget and an income stream to last a lifetime. The third part addresses a topic rarely considered in the past: wealth accumulation in retirement. These topics are of critical importance because people retiring today have to finance retirements that are lasting as long as 15, 20 and even 30 years.Due to the recent passage of the Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2001 many Dearborn courses have been affected. A quick reference guide on the Tax Act has been created to explain the impact the Act has on these courses. A quick reference guide will be included with the purchase of this course.
If you are taking this course for CE, the CE exam will automatically be added to your basket when selecting CE credit. Certain states require that a proctor/monitor supervise the exam taking process.

Financing Federal Systems: The Selected Essays of Edward M. Gramlich (Studies in Fiscal Federalism and State-Local Finance)
Edward M. Gramlich Manufacturer: Edward Elgar Publishing ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover ASIN: 1858986567 |
Book Description
Financing Federal Systems provides a comprehensive selection of Edward M. Gramlich's essays, which have made a major contribution to public finance and macroeconomics over three decades. The structure of fiscal federalism is a major issue in most countries around the world. Developed economies are continually confronting the question of fiscal federalism as they consider harmonizing tax and trading arrangements. Emerging market economies are addressing these issues as they organize systems to promote growth and development. The book begins with a new introduction by the author which provides a clear and concise overview of the current issues in fiscal federalism. The book comprises some 23 papers and features empirical, theoretical and diagnostic work together with comprehensive evaluations of the fiscal federal systems in the United States, Australia, Sweden and Canada. It includes work on state and local government behavior, grant policies, macroeconomic policies, state tax limitations, federal tax policy, sub-national fiscal policy, infrastructure investment and public welfare policies. Financing Federal Systems will complement graduate and undergraduate courses in public finance and fiscal federalism. It will also appeal to policy makers and local government practitioners.

Political Economy in Federal States: Selected Essays of Stanley L. Winer (Studies in Fiscal Federalism and State-Local Finance Series)
Stanley L. Winer Manufacturer: Edward Elgar Publishing ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover ASIN: 1840647817 |
Book Description
Federal states are lively sources of data on the economics and politics of the public sector. In this rich collection of essays, some of which are previously unpublished, Stanley Winer makes use of these data from Canada, the United States and Australia to explore a variety of issues including: the political economy of intergovernmental grants, the evolution of tax structure, the re-assignment of fiscal powers among jurisdictions, the nature of special interest groups, and fiscally-induced internal migration. Other chapters exploit the unique Canadian experience with both fixed and flexible exchange rate regimes to test ideas about the macroeconomic consequences of subcentral fiscal policy in a small, open federal country, the role of the exchange rate mechanism in the international transmission of economic activity, and the relationship between monetary growth and political popularity. A concern with the integration of economics and politics is evident throughout this book, which will be essential reading for all economists and political scientists with an interest in the public sector.

Public Finance in Developing and Transitional Countries: Essays in Honor of Richard Bird (Studies in Fiscal Federalism and Stated Local Finance Series)
Manufacturer: Edward Elgar Publishing ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover ASIN: 1840648813 |
Book Description
It is hard to think of anyone who has contributed so much and so widely to research in international public finance in the last 40 years as has Richard Bird. This volume of essays emerged from a conference dedicated to him. It also expands on our understanding of international public finance.Bird's academic and applied work has always benefited from a far-reaching involvement with, and knowledge of, relevant policy issues in many countries around the world. The range of public finance issues to which he has contributed over the years covers practically the whole gamut of the public finance discipline: tax policy, tax administration, the interdependency between the two, intergovernmental fiscal relations, public expenditure policy, and fiscal management processes.
The topics covered in this book reflect the wide contributions of Richard Bird to the subject of international public finance, including original reviews of intergovernmental fiscal relations, fiscal policy, and tax evasion and tax administration, all with a special focus on transition and developing countries. The contributors, top scholars in their own right, deepen our own understanding of relevant problems and issues in international public finance, much like Richard Bird has been doing for many years. The book will be of interest to economists, policymakers and students.

We Called It Music: A Generation of Jazz (Quality Paperbacks Series)
Eddie Condon , and Thomas Sugrue Manufacturer: Da Capo ProductGroup: Book Binding: Paperback Similar Items:
ASIN: 0306804662 |
Customer Reviews:
If you like Jazz you will want to read this book.......2002-12-08
The hardships endured by the early and "pure" jazz musicians make one wonder how they survived. It was certainly a hand-to-mouth existence, and time and time again they had to help each other. Quite often, when some had work, others didn't, and the ways they would help each other were quite resourceful and often good for a few laughs.
As Condon describes his playing days, a reader will bump into many who would become the jazz greats of our time--early in their careers when they also endured their challenges to make a living and gain fame. The book does a good job of describing how they viewed their situation and the world around them.
I believe a reader will clearly learn a lot about the early history of jazz, and will be highly entertained while reading it.
A hilariously funny account of the jazz age.......1998-08-06
