Many small business owners will tell you that regulatory concerns hamper their plans to hire and expand. But according to a new survey, where they really run into difficulty is pinpointing exactly which regulations are responsible for their problems.

More specifically, 82 percent of them said the obstacles stemmed from government regulations.

As a small business owner, it can be difficult to decide where your time is best spent, especially since your time really does equal money.

10/25/2011
Two generous tax breaks that small business owners got during the recession are going to shrink dramatically in 2012. That makes yearend tax planning more important than usual.

The changes affect the deductions for purchases of equipment. One is called the Section 179 deduction, a name taken from a provision of the Internal Revenue Code.
