Is the Internet overhyped as useful source for tax practitioners?
Article Abstract:
The Internet has a number of weaknesses as a source of information for tax practitioners. The accuracy, accessibility and sophistication of the technology is being undermined by the process by which tax information is written and catalogued. Because anyone can publish on the Web, an enormous amount of information is accumulated, which cannot all be verified for accuracy and is time-consuming to search. Tax information found on the Web can be classified into three based on usefulness. These are authoritative sources for comprehensive federal tax research; federal, state and foreign government publications, forms and instructions; and informal information sources. Information provided by tax services and tax journals may still be the most useful to tax practitioners.

M0: causes and consequences
Article Abstract:
Understanding of the determinants of M0 and its informational content can be improved by looking at the behaviour of M0 as indicated by estimated money demand equations and the indicator properties of M0 for inflation. The key aspects of the behaviour of M0 are the trend in velocity, its leading indicator properties for inflation and its relationships with expenditure and interest rates. A relatively reliable specification of the demand for M0 can be obtained by using cumulative interest rates as a measure of endogenous innovation and retail sales as a scale variable.
