Intercompany agreements are legal agreements which define the terms on which services, products and financial support are provided between related parties. For groups which operate internationally, intercompany agreements are the essential foundation for complying with transfer pricing regulations (the international rules which determine where profits are taxed) and for minimising the risk of double taxation.The task of maintaining an effective system of intercompany agreements often falls between two stools: tax and finance professionals may receive the blame for unexpected tax assessments resulting from transfer pricing challenges, but do not typically have the skills to manage legal documentation. Similarly, many corporate lawyers are unfamiliar with transfer pricing concepts and may not have hands-on experience of the issues involved.This book is a practical resource for finance, tax and transfer pricing professionals, and for anyone involved in designing, implementing, maintaining or reviewing intercompany agreements for multinational groups. It sets out a common-sense approach to achieving compliance so that, as far as possible, the tax, legal regulatory and governance needs of a group can be met in a holistic way.ABOUT THE AUTHORPaul Sutton is the co-founder of LCN Legal and a corporate lawyer with over 25 years' experience of advising international clients, including airlines, telecommunications groups and media networks.

"To me, literature only works when freedoms of thought and expression are seen as essentials to liberty and life. That obviously isn't true in our culture where - at best - a crushing elite tolerates 'me speech' but not free speech. Many have suffered at their hands. I fictionalise my own experiences in The Poetry of Gin and Tea. Those misappropriated drinks represent something we've lost, linking our predicament with prophecies from the greatest of 20th-century English writers: George Orwell. He warned how this would happen, through control then destruction of our language. Supposedly done for 'progressive aims' but actually as displays of unchallengeable power, destroying our shared humanity and culture."Paul Sutton"I marvel at Paul Sutton's unique ability to confront the demons of our time and beat them at their own game - the game of words. His poetry is a subtle affront to the censorship around us. His speech is more than simply free." Ewan Morrison

The book is entitled Life's Choices. Life is about choices. Indeed, all of life, all of creation, is about choices. This book is written as an inclusio. An inclusio is a format where the beginning and the ending form bookends; the book begins and ends in the same basic place. It begins at the paradise of creation. It ends in the new creation. It is an apologetic. An apologetic is that which offers a defense; it is a defense of the Christian faith. This book starts out before there was time; it ends when time is no more. It culminates in a theodicy. A theodicy is a study of the relation between God and evil. This book answers the question: Why is there evil in the world?

The first analytical study of the pioneering English musician. The historian, Paul Sutton begins by taking the reader through an entertaining potted history of rock music pioneers, tracing them all back to "a delta of Mississippi mud from where howled the first harmonica, and from where was heard the first blue plucking finger on string", to show that popular music was strictly The Imitation Game until Gary Numan came along with his Machine Quartet, four albums that completely re-invigorated rock and roll."Numan's music added so many new strands of DNA to the gene pool of what hitherto had been dead Mississippi mud that the transformative effect was immediate and everlasting."Artists major, from Frank Zappa, Neil Young and Alice Cooper, and bands then minor, including Tears for Fears and Depeche Mode, all stopped what they were doing and added lessons learned from Numan to their art.Sutton looks at the influence on Numan of David Bowie, Brian Eno, Kraftwerk and John Foxx, and deconstructs Numan's cryptic lyrics from the first single to the fourth album in order to unlock the art and mind of the world's first Asperger's pop star.

In this book, the film historian Paul Sutton has assembled and preserved a fascinating international collection of hundreds of James Dean clippings that span eight decades and three continents, to illustrate the contemporary and continuing responses to the great American star who became a global phenomenon.

The golden days of the film poster are often remembered in print and at the auction house but the newsprint adverts for film are a vanishing breed. Historian, Paul Sutton, believes that the print ads themselves are art. In this pioneering collection, he presents and preserves 350 rare black-and-white horror film adverts from England, America, France, Germany, Italy and Mexico. The adverts tell a history of the horror film, from the silent cinema of Germany and the Hammer Horrors of England, through to Italian Zombies and Ridley Scott's Alien.

Dave Turnip is a cathartic alter-ego, existing through narrative fragmentation yet searching for unity. He believes left-liberalism and its aesthetics are the funeral music of a ruthless elite, whose utopianism denies his identity through monolithic diversity and intellectual serfdom. This volume details his own diversification, from the unknown chronicler of the 2006 Ipswich murders to the silent lyricist of UVB-76.

A lavish pictorial celebration of the richly entertaining films about the sexual misadventures of three teenage boys in Tel Aviv. Lemon Popsicle spawned seven sequels, several spin-off films, and a U.S. remake, The Last American Virgin, and helped to establish the producers, Golan and Globus, as a force in Hollywood.
