Taxes can be viewed as having 4 uses (or purposes) in our (and most) governments:Revenue generation (to pay for public services).Fiscal policy control (e.g., If the government wishes to reduce the money supply in order to reduce the risk of inflation, they can raise interest rates, sell fewer bonds, burn money, or raise taxes. In the last case, this represents excess tax revenue over the actual spending needs of the government).Wealth re-distribution. One argument for this is that the earnings of a country can be perceived as belonging to all of its citizens since the we all have a stake in the resources of the country (natural resources, and intangibles such as culture, good citizenship, civic duties). Without some tax policy complexity, the free market alone does not re-distribute wealth according to this "shared" resources concept. However, this steps into the boundary of Purpose # 4...A way to implement Social Policy (and similar government mandated policies, such as environmental policy, health policy, savings and debt policy, etc.). As Government spending can be use to implement policies (e.g., spending money on public health care, environmental cleanup, education, etc.), it is equivalent to provide tax breaks (income deductions or tax credits) for the private sector to act in certain ways -- e.g., spend money on R&D, pay for their own education or health care, avoid spending money on polluting cars by having a higher sales tax on these cars or offering a credit for trade-ins [ref: Cash for Clunkers]).Uses # 1 & 2 are rather straight-forward, and do not require a complex tax code to implement. Flat income and/or consumption (sales) taxes can easily be manipulated up or down overall for these top 2 uses. Furthermore, there is clarity when these uses are invoked. For spending, we publish a budget. For fiscal policy manipulation, the official economic agency (The Fed) publishes their outlook and agenda.Use # 3 is controversial because there is no Constitutional definition for the appropriate level of wealth re-distribution, and the very concept of wealth re-distribution is considered by some to be inappropriate and unconstitutional. Thus, the goal of wealth re-distribution is pretty much hidden in with the actions and policies of Use #4 (social policy manipulation).Use # 4, however, is where the complexity enters the Taxation system. Policy implementation through taxation (or through spending) occurs via legislation. Legislation (law making) is inherently complex and subject to gross manipulation by special interests during formation and amendments. Legislation is subject to interpretation, is prone to errors (leading to loopholes) and both unintentional or intentional (criminal / fraudulent) avoidance.The record keeping and forms referred to in the question are partially due to the basic formula for calculating taxes (i.e., percentage of income, cost of property, amount of purchase for a sales tax, ...). However, it is the complexity (and associated opportunities for exploitation) of taxation legislation for Use # 4 (Social Policy implementation) that naturally leads to complexity in the reporting requirements for the tax system.

It appears that the company may be trying to reclassify you as an independent contractor rather than an employee.Based on the information provided, it appears that such reclassification (a) would be a violation of applicable law by the employer and (b) potentially could be disadvantageous for you (e.g., depriving you of unemployment compensation if you are fired without cause).The most prudent approach would be to retain a lawyer who represents employees in employment matters.In any event, it appears that you would be justified in refusing to complete and sign the W-9, telling the company that there is no business or legal reason for you to do so.Edit: After the foregoing answer was written, the OP added Q details concerning restricted stock repurchase being the reason for the W-9 request. As a result, the foregoing answer appears to be  irrelevant. However, I will leave it, for now, in case Q details are changed yet again in a way that reestablishes the answer's relevance.

First of all, if you have made up your mind to go for civil services exam, stay determined and stand for your decision. Stay away from all negativity or pessimism.Now coming to how you should prepare. Get syllabus of the exam and read it thoroughly. Then do the following.Firstly, the golden rule to the IAS exam is to start with the basics and this is really very important. Start reading NCERT books of the prescribed syllabus such as History (old ncert), Geography, Civics etc. These will help you develop a basic understanding and clarity of the concepts. It will also lay a foundation for the advanced study. NEVER skip NCERTs, never!!!Secondly, develop a habit of reading newspaper. Any one good newspaper like The Hindu or Indian Express would do. This will help you get an overview of daily happenings and you would be able to relate things with your syllabus and exam pattern. Don't stress out on current affairs as most probably you would be appearing three years from now on. Just try to understand how things work in day to day life when it comes to Polity, Environment, Economics etc.Third, keep in mind the syllabus and exam pattern. Never study unnecessary stuff. It's more important what not to study than what to study. Don't just create a library at your home. Use study material wisely, and since it's your beginning, don't jump the gun. In enthusiasm to gather more knowledge, many freshers just buy books by tons. Avoid this.Fourth, use social media efficiently. Believe me from social media you can learn a lot provided you follow right track. “Like” pages of genuine newspapers like The Hindu, Down to Earth, preparation portals like Insights on India and Unacademy (avoid Zee News, Republic TV like non-informative pages). We open Facebook (assuming you didn't deactivate it after Cambridge Analytica scandal) many times in a day but we won't open the above mentioned sources more than twice a day to be honest. But on Facebook you can read things on the go and learn as well.This is enough for now. Many things will follow as you will go through the preparation.Best of luck. In case you follow this suggestion and crack IAS exam, mention me in your speech :)

What do you want to know about: Percentile (which your question says) or percentage (which is mentioned in detail) ?Since MBA forms don’t ask for percentile of X, I’m answering about percentage.If your mark sheet has percentage mentioned over it, the same needs to be written for your MBA forms, no matter how is it calculated.If subjects and your exam score is mentioned, take best 5 as per the rules of your school board e.g. for I.S.C. English is to be compulsorily added for best 5.A percentage or two here and there won’t make a difference to your admission process and later in life (unless you are on border of 60% or 75% or 80% as few companies have a cut-off which comes into picture when they come for recruitment). All you need to make sure is you get a great percentile in the competitive exam for MBA.

NO!Yahweh is not a good name for a child.Why not? I can guarantee, unless you live in an incredibly remote area of the world, your child will meet at least one Jew in his/her lifetime. Jews, even the most reformed ones, will be offended when people write or say the name of their god aloud. They use all sorts of euphemisms.The second reason is, even if there are no Jewish people where you live, children will taunt your child. And your little one will have to fill out all kinds of forms when they are older. If your child says at his/her job interview that his/her name is Yahweh, would people take him/her seriously? No.My school name is Amanda, and I get taunted for it. That is such a normal English name. Imagine how worse it would be if the name was something outrageous.Thirdly, how would you like to be called ‘God’?Notes:Some people have asked me why I get taunted for the name Amanda. My name is pronounced in fake accents. It rhymes with panda. And it's not my official birth name.Others have asked me, if it's not acceptable to call your kid Yahweh, then why are some Hispanic people named Jesus? Well, if it's pronounced ‘hay-zoos', it's a standardized and traditional name, so it's acceptable. Yahweh, and a name pronounced ‘jee-zus', is not.
