Changes are coming both for your wallet and possibly for many local companies. Recovering multiple angles of the impact of the fiscal cliff deal sam brock will give us a reality check from run pr production to nascar tracks, but we begin 0 our coverage with business and tech reporter scott budman with the notable changes. Scott . Jessica and raj, we backed away from the fiscal cliff but we cant duck more taxes. Our rates are about to go up even while many of the companies we work for catch a break. Good news if youre trying to develop the next killer product. The federal government renewed the research and Development Tax credit, more money for Companies Like santa clara based white hat security which doubled in size last year. Scan the websites of our customers for vulnerabilities. To continue growing and innovating as we roll into the new year. The nice thing about the silicon valley, its just a draw from around the world from a leadership and just the type of people and the credentials they bring and as a result its a great place to invest and i think were seeing a lot more of that. Reporter but while your company may save money, youll probably be taxed more this year. This is a really bitter tasting cup of coffee. Reporter cpa daniel moore has been telling his clients to get ready. Because you make 100,000 a year as a w2 wage, your taxes, all things being equal, are going up by 2,000 each year. Reporter and thats just on the federal level. The state of california spent more than it earned and well be on the hook this year with higher taxes. Probably an average person will pay the state of california 1,000 to 1,500 a year by the time they pay additional taxes and income taxes based on earnings. Reporter we avoided the cliff but more of our money will still roll away in 2013. Now a bit of good news for individuals when it comes to taxes. The capitalgains tax, thats the rate youre taxed when you sell stock or your house stays lower because of the recent deal which makes it a little less expensive to buy and sell investments like stock. Jessica . Okay, thank you, scott. Now the fiscal cliff deal led to a very big sign on wall street. Happy to save money on the capitalgains taxes scott talked about sent the dow up more than 300 points. The nasdaq led by apple and g g google gained 3 . As is common with washington politi politics, theres more than meets the eye. Congress found a way to massage a few other notable items into the fiscal cliff deal. In tonights reality check, sam brock shows us what special interests are under way in the compromise bill dont look like they necessarily belong in a budget discussion, sam. Jessica, good evening. Our congressional leaders have been cramming bills with pork since practically the dawn of time. At least the dawn of organized government. In a charged political atmosphere for every penny represents a tug of war, some of the bacon in this bill could leave you scratching your head. From capitol hill and the likes of pelosi, reid, and boehner to your neighborhood pig ready to offer up fresh pork, the question bears asking, have lawmakers taken taxpayers for a ride around the farm . Electric scooter manufacturer joe ferris would theoretically benefit from part of the fiscal deal. The section that grants consumers a tax credit the up to 2,500 to buy electric scooters and bikes. This is a good way to be spending federal dollars . No. I dont believe that giving somebody 2,500 would motivate them anyway. Reporter but thats what the federal government is trying to do. Leverage the fiscal cliff deal to spur, among other things, electric scooter sales. The bottom line for taxpayers has to be how much is this it going to cost you . It turns out subsidies for motorized scooters and bikes would be about 15 million over the course of two years. That figure isnt that bad. But how about the sticker shot of rum subsidies . Thats right. Were paying to have rum promoted in puerto rico for 550 million a year. It seems ridiculous. Its wrong. Reporter eli rosen, a student at San Jose State University fails to see the economic value of promoting puerto rican rum with hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars. But hes onboard with extending the American Opportunity tax credit. Its another portion of the fiscal deal that gives tax credits to students at a price tag in the tens of billions. I think were breathing a generation of ill advantaged students coming out of the university because they havent taken their studies seriously for these purposes, that books are too expensive. Reporter but if footing the costs of books seems reasonable, do these elements of the deal . A tax break for building nascar racetracks or another year of tax exempt fundraising near ground zero, originally intended to rebuild lower manhattan. Now the bonds have been used to construct, among other things, a new Goldman Sachs headquarters. If you take the cost of extending all these tax breaks for corporations and individuals and the 2009 stimulus tax breaks, you get about 210 billion aggregate. Now compared to new revenues projected from higher taxes, special interests represent about a third of all new money raised. That is a staggering figure for those concerned with deficit reduction. Sam brock, nbc bay area news. Back to you. Okay, thank you, sam. Very revealing. This new year brings a change to immigration laws beginning march 4 immigrant families wont have to be separated for months while members apply for permanent u. S. Residency.
