National Splurge Day is the perfect excuse to treat yourself a little. A splurge doesn’t have to mean draining your savings account - especially when it’s an occasional treat.

And splurging looks different for everyone. For some, it’s adding whipped cream to the latte or finally buying that bracelet they’ve had their eye on. For others, it’s taking the dream vacation or upgrading from the old car. Whatever your version of a splurge may be, enjoy it and make the most of the moment.

National Splurge Day reminder: budgeting isn’t about never spending money — it’s about making room for the things you actually enjoy.

Making sales is exciting.📈
But if you don’t know what it costs to produce or purchase what you sell, you’re only seeing half the picture.

Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) helps businesses measure the direct costs behind their products — giving a clearer view of profit, pricing, and growth.

Not sure if you’re tracking your business costs correctly? Wear Howell can help you understand your numbers and make more informed financial decisions.

Did you get mail from the IRS? Don't throw it away!

🚨This is the way the IRS will communicate with you.🚨

Most IRS letters and notices relate to federal tax returns or tax accounts. Each notice explains the issue in detail and outlines any steps the taxpayer may need to take. Notices can cover topics such as account changes, balances due, payment requests, or questions regarding a tax return or tax credit.

Tax credits can make a bigger impact than many taxpayers realize. Unlike deductions, credits reduce your tax bill dollar-for-dollar which could mean more money back in your pocket.

From the Child Tax Credit to education and energy credits, it’s worth taking the time to see what you may qualify for before filing. A missed credit could mean missed savings. 💰

Every tax situation is different. Connect with Wear Howell to uncover credits and savings opportunities that fit your needs.

BEHIND THE LEDGER ✨
At Wear Howell, there’s a lot more going on than tax returns and payroll reports. This series gives you a behind-the-scenes look at the people, personalities, and moments that make our team who we are. Because being a Wear Howeller comes with more than just spreadsheets.

On April 30th, Wear Howell went out to the Huntsville Trash Pandas ballgame against the Knoxville Smokies! It was a great night of fun, connection, and community! The Pandas didn't win but our firm sure did in having a great bonding time between coworkers and fantastic food!
