Plumb Club Webinar To Help Retail Jewelers Benefit From Pandemic Resources Still Available September 13, 2021 (0 comments)
New York, NY—The jewelry industry continues to have federal resources available to help retail businesses recover and thrive from the impact of the pandemic.
On Thursday, September 23, at 1:00 p.m. Eastern time, The Plumb Club will host a free live webinar titled "How Jewelers Can Maximize Federal Resources To Thrive Post-Pandemic," featuring Howard Hoff, partner-in-charge, Commercial Business Group, and Jay Brower, partner, State and Local Tax Leader, at the premier accounting firm Marks Paneth. The two, moderated by Plumb Club executive director Lawrence Hess, will discuss the variety of federal pandemic assistance programs still available to retail jewelers and the jewelry industry.
The webinar will focus on the Employee Retention Credits (ERC) and its interplay with the Payroll Protection Program (PPP) forgiveness calculation available to the jewelry industry. Further, the panelists will provide jewelry retailers with an overview of the CARES Act and the Consolidated Appropriations Act as it is pertinent to the ERC and PPP loan forgiveness. Retailers will also get insight and knowledge on:
- Qualifying for and claiming ERC for your business for 2020 and 2021
- Optimization analysis of the interplay of the PPP loan forgiveness applications and the ERC being requested
- Taxation of the ERC received
“Many retailers may feel that the resources available to help with issues related to the pandemic have been exhausted at this point," said Hess. “There are still a number of opportunities that retailers can avail themselves of. This timely webinar will help them understand and optimize the help that’s still available.”
