Tax Information for U.S. and Canadian Dealers
Commissions are considered income and are
reported on form 1099 Misc (U.S.) and form T4A (Canada). The 1099 and T4A forms
only reflect commissions paid during the calendar year; they do not include any
deductions or credits from Dealer checks.
Dealers only receive a form if their
commission checks totaled more than $600 in 2019 for U.S. Dealers and more than
$500 for Canadian Dealers. Note that T4A forms are issued in Canadian funds.
Dealers’ 1099 and T4A income is determined by the dates of the commission
checks issued between Jan. 1 and Dec. 31, 2019.
AMSOIL mailed all 1099
forms by Jan. 31, 2020, and will mail T4A forms by no later than Feb. 29, 2020.
Please allow at least two weeks delivery
time before calling for a replacement form. Forms may also be obtained in the
Dealer Zone (My Business>Year End Tax Documents). AMSOIL is not qualified to
provide, and does not offer, any tax advice. Please consult a tax advisor.
Dealers suspecting an error on their 1099 or T4A forms are advised to gather
their check stubs and call the accounting department at 715-399-6348.

Retail Co-op/Commercial Discount Reminder
Don’t forget to remind your
retail and commercial accounts about the great perks they can receive based on
purchases they make throughout the year.
Retail
Co-op Program
Retail accounts earn co-op credit that can
be applied to the costs of qualified advertising, literature, merchandising and
promotional items. Co-op credit is earned with every product purchase
throughout the year. All credit is awarded at the beginning of January the
following year and expires on Dec. 31. The more an account buys in a year, the
greater the co-op percentage earned. Co-op credit is earned according to the
following scale:
Total
Annual Purchases Percentage
Earned in Co-op Credit
$0 - $7,499 3%
$7,500 - $24,999 4%
$25,000 or more 5%
Commercial
Discount Program
Commercial accounts also earn discounts
based on their annual purchases, and those discounts stay with them all year.
At the beginning of each calendar year, an account’s discount is locked in
based on its purchases over the previous 12 months. Accounts that purchase
enough to qualify for a higher discount level are granted that discount
immediately, but accounts that fall out of qualification continue receiving
their current discount rate for the remainder of the year.
United
States Spend Level Discount
$5,000 - $9,999.99 5%
$10,000+ 10%
Canada
Spend Level Discount
$6,000 - $11,999.99 5%
$12,000+ 10%

Succession Planning
AMSOIL is committed to providing the best
customer service possible. That commitment doesn’t end when an independent
Dealer winds down his or her Dealership. That’s why we’ve
sent out a new Succession Planning Kit to all AMSOIL Dealers as an introduction
to the succession planning process. The kit includes a brochure and letter
from our Dealer Development team with information on planning for the future of
your business. Securing your business plans ahead of time is one of the best
ways to maintain the value of your Dealership you’ve worked hard to build. Get
started today by contacting the AMSOIL Dealer Development team at [email protected].
You can also find more information on succession planning in the Dealer Zone
under Rules of the Road.
