yes and no the feds and state decide also and cities for that matter
Possibly but it would depend on several factors such as wether they are purchasing or selling invoices. If they are selling how badly do they need the capital against how much loss in revenue. If they are buying they will have to decide how much spare capital they have and how much risk they are willing to take.
If it is a private sale between two individuals then you shouldn't have to report it on your income taxes at all. If you have used it in business or taken business mileage deductions then you probably will have to report the sale on your tax return. You will use the Sale of Business Assets Form and calculate the basis and sale price based on information you did not provide here.

This is a great question since when we think about taxing the rich we think we are taxing individuals, but in reality we are taxing individuals and corporations. The question not answered is: should we be taxing corporations and just how many corporations are we talking about? Corporations are income producing organizations treated as individuals. Individuals may or may not be income producers, but even if they are not income producers, in the end, when they spend money they will provide opportunity for income to be produced. For example, a rich person buys an aircraft. The company who sells the aircraft, buys raw materials, pays employees, etc to manufacture and sell that aircraft. In other words, the rich person creates employment and profits. Corporations have slightly different paradigm to deal with. In order to produce something, they have to have capital to start their business. True, there some very rich individuals who can start their own corporations and fund them completely, of more often, business start slowly, building capital slowly, they borrow needed funds, (assuming they have capitol equity) or they sell shares to raise money. If they are taxed too much, that is money they do not have to invest in the business. The problem still remains, the business have to buy the manufacturing equipment before they can make taxable profits, so even if they can deduct the cost of doing business, they only can do so if there are profits. So in the end if we mistakenly confuse real business with individuals who have wealth we are over taxing our income generators.
This depends on the legal organization of the business (C corporation, S corporation, partnership, etc) and what state the business operates in, for just a couple of factors. There are some taxes which may only apply to one or the other, or apply differently to individuals and businesses. One example is the Social Security tax. An individual pays 7.65% of gross pay to Social Security (in 2011 stimulus measures had this at a temporarily reduced rate of 5.65%). The business, as an employer, pays a matching contribution the employees account (based on how much the employee makes, not how much income the business has. Note that the above referenced stimulus reduction applied only to reduce the employee's portion, not the employer's. In Texas, a business pays property tax based on the value of vehicles, equipment and inventory that it owns, as well as any real estate. Individuals only pay property tax on real estate. Each state would have its own tax laws.
Congress
There is no set amount. You will need to determine how much you can afford to save.
A system in which any person can start a business, decide what to make, how much to produce, and what price to charge is known as a free market economy. In this system, the forces of supply and demand primarily determine prices and production levels, allowing individuals the freedom to pursue entrepreneurial ventures. This promotes competition and innovation, as businesses strive to meet consumer needs and preferences.

A "green" business will usually recycle at least 90% of their paper and plastic wastes. However, there is no one specific percentage, nor is their a governing body to decide whether or not a business is officially "green."
