A Financial-Aid Bias?
For the self-employed, these are a cost of doing business no different from a corporation's spending on raw materials or advertising, but America's private colleges add them back to income when they calculate the resources a family has available to pay for college. It's something that most self-employed parents may not realize, and with good reason: The financial-aid determination process is pretty much a black box. You put your data in, whether on the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) form handled by the U.S. Education Department or the College Scholarship Service (CSS) form processed by the College Board, send along last year's tax forms and out the other end come scholarship and loan packages from the colleges that have accepted your child. How those numbers are determined is up to each school's own financial-aid office.
Trane Sale Details Finalized
The company sold its bath and kitchen unit to Bain Capital Partners LLC in October, and then spun-off the Wabco Holdings Inc. vehicle-control unit in August, said Skip Colcord, Trane's director of global media relations. Then last month American Standard officially changed its name to Trane, the only remaining company left in the business.When Trane opened itself up to stand on its own, which Colcord said was the company's plan, it became an attractive buy for Ingersoll-Rand.Heymann said Ingersoll-Rand's focus on "green" commercial buildings would make Trane a perfect fit as it looks to the HVAC systems to be a part of the ever-increasingly popular green movement.While the company's drive to be green is heavily influenced by Trane's commercial systems, the residential sector will only be a minor factor in the equation.
