VULOCITY unveils Mileage Logger, an IRS tax-solution device
Mileage Logger revolutionizes the financial climate for all taxpayers
Austin, TX February 15, 2008 For too many business owners, the menacing approach of tax season is the primary daunting issue, but now the Mileage Logger is poised as the most innovative IRS solution of the century. No longer will a business owner be caught unprepared to face the IRS at this time of the year.
The Mileage Logger is a small and efficient device, half the size of a dollar bill that plugs into your car's lighter power adapter. Designed to record using motion activation, the device needs absolutely no human interaction to start a session before driving off in your vehicle and ends the session after the vehicle is parked. Conveniently, the device has a small panic button on the side that will alert family members or a dispatcher with a phone call or text message in any occurrence of trouble.
The device does not have to be removed from the vehicle, but can be portable using a rechargeable battery. Using GPS coordinates to obtain your start and end location, as well as calculating trip distance; this unbelievable product transmits data to VULOCITY’s web site through GSM cellular networks. A mileage report is accessible on the Internet using a secure password and this report will display both start and end locations through interactive maps, time traveled, trip purpose, mileage for each trip and editing capabilities in a comments section.
According to President, Laurian Stoicoviciu, "For years independent business owners have been frustrated in trying to keep up with maintaining accurate tax records for their mileage deduction to avoid tax audits. So far, pen, paper and software programs have been the norm in deducting mileage at the end of each tax year. Now, VULOCITY has set the bar using the latest advancements in technology. Ever since the IRS raised mileage rates to $.505, there is an increased appeal among business owners to keep better mileage log records. We have created this product and service to alleviate the pain of millions just like us." 100 CPA’s who were interviewed all agree that the Mileage Logger by VULOCITY is undoubtedly the best tool they’ve seen for their self-employed clients.
The Mileage Logger exceeds the IRS imposed mileage log book requirements. Due to the recent increase in IRS mileage rates, tax audits are projected to substantially increase. The Mileage Logger gives business owners fortified peace of mind in a tax audit. An annual compilation of 30,000 business miles equates to a $15,150 reduction in taxable income. Not a small sum for any tax payer not to mention an independent business owner. Mileage Logger erases the guesswork and pain of keeping an accurate IRS compliant business mileage log.
With a "plug in and forget it" concept, Mileage Logger makes it unnecessary to use logbooks or waste time entering data into software programs. The Mileage Logger by Vulocity captures the power of automation and solves the issues of keeping up with unstable gas prices or remembering to tabulate every business trip in a flimsy logbook.
