Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas' Controversial RV and Loan Investigation
This chapter explores the controversy surrounding Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas' acquisition of a luxury motorhome and the Senate investigation into his alleged failure to repay a quarter million dollar loan. It also discusses the potential tax implications of loan forgiveness and the importance of reporting income to the IRS.
An embezzlement scheme at Aria Hotel costs MGM $770,000, an accounting firm apologizes for paying a staffer below minimum wage, problems with Workday ERP implementations for state and local governments, a spike in accounting enrollment at Purdue University, and tax migration trends between high-tax and low-tax states.
