Hey i was wonderin if u own a business and you use company money to buy food or like a laptop, you can write those off as expenses right?  And would it be possible to do it so much that the company dont make any profit.  Therefore nothing to be taxed on, since they only tax profits right?  err yeah you know what i mean hehe

  Texas does not have income taxes either personal or corporate.

  What they do have, however is called the "Franchinse Tax"  which is based on the
  amount of capital and surplus.

  DESCRIPTION:
  The Texas franchise tax is a privilege tax imposed on each corporation and
  limited liability company chartered/organized in Texas or doing business in
  Texas. For franchise tax purposes, the term "corporation" also includes a bank,
  state limited banking association, savings and loan association, limited
  liability company, professional limited liability company, a corporation that
  elects to be an S corporation for federal income tax purposes, and a
  professional corporation.

  DUE DATE:
  A corporation's initial report is due one year and 89 days after the
  corporation's beginning date in Texas. Thereafter, annual reports are due each
  May 15.

  RATE:
  Greater of .25% (.0025) per year of privilege period of net taxable capital or
  4.5% (.0450) of net taxable earned surplus. For the initial report, the net
  taxable capital rate is prorated over the initial period. .
