Franchising

I think it's because they're greedy! They sell their burgers for twice the price of KFC's and Opporto's but the quality isn't all that different. For that price they could use organic chicken but they're not! It's the same frozen battery chicken as KFC's and Red rooster. I think it's best to avoid expensive fast food unless there's some real difference in quality.

It isn't a publicly traded company, but it is indeed a corporation as are all NBA teams. They exist for the sole purpose to make money, and the players are simply employees.

2003

Fewer than 10 percent of franchised retail businesses fail during the first two years of operation, whereas approximately half of independent retail businesses fail during that period.

According to Forbes, the 2012 Eagles franchise is valued at $1.26 billion which is 7th highest in the NFL. The teams valued higher are the Cowboys ($2.1 bil), Patriots ($1.635 bil), Redskins ($1.6 bil), Giants ($1.468 bil), Texans ($1.305 bil), and Jets ($1.284 bil).

David's Bridal is a private owned company owned by the Leonard Green partners and is not franchised. The average store is about 10,000 square feet although in recent years they have adopted a smaller format of about 6500 square feet in order to open more outlets rather than large warehouse type stores. They currently have about 300 stores in the chain.

Tim Horton's is an extremely popular franchise that has millions of costumers a month. They make around 4 billion dollars a year, and about 36.5 million a month.

Nothing...In fact most Lick's franchisees lose money; some go bankrupt.

Just more than 7,600..

As of October 6, 2012 there are over 10,000 corporate and franchised stores.

The food deal with foreign companies in India is 49%-51% in favor of the foreign investor. So, the Indian franchise makes 49 cents of each dollar earned. I don't think McD's US is making a lot from its Indian investment. If at all anything they were successful in entering the Indian markets.

Because they want to more money and invest more, also they want to make their franchise grow and have higher reputation : D

Let me rephrase your question so that you can be sure my answer actually addresses what you want to know: "Must I pay taxes in the State of California on disability claim checks I receive from the California State Disability Insurance (CA SDI) program?"

In reference to CA SDI claim checks, no the amount you receive is not taxable, with only one exception: a person with a disability who is unemployed and would otherwise be eligible for CA State Unemployment Insurance (CA UI) benefits but whose circumstances/CA SDI rules allow them to defer filing for CA UI and instead file for CA SDI (which has a higher cap on benefit payments relative to UI so one would end up getting more money on SDI) must pay taxes on CA SDI payouts received.

If you're not unemployed, meaning once you recover from your disability you have the legal right to return to your job, then the State of California will not tax your disability claim checks. If you become unemployed while receiving disability from the State (your employer can legally separate you from employment even while disabled if your position was part of a company downsizing at anytime and also after the period defined for State Medical Leave has passed, I don't know the length of that period you'd have to research it) your tax status may change and I can't find any definitive answers about what happens then. You'd likely have to call either the FTB or the CA SDI directly to ask.

The rationale behind the non-taxability of CA SDI claims simply relates to the concept of dual-taxation, meaning law prohibits you from being taxed twice on something. And if you look at your pay stub, you'll see there's a CA SDI tax line item in most instances. So you've actually already paid your tax. That's why I always encourage people who are going to be out of work for more than a month due to documented injury, illness or other disability, to file for SDI because you're entitled to it, you've paid for it, you should use it. Not all HR departments proactively mention SDI to employees leaving on disability - they are not legally bound to do so - which sucks.

Note: This information applies only to those disability claim checks issued by the CA State Disability Insurance program. Private insurance disability claim checks ARE taxable.
