I don't want to withdraw -- this Challenge is way too much fun to abandon! Thanks for letting me continue :).
So, with your permission, I'll money-cheat enough to cover the bill (less the 500 that Minnie should pay from her own bank). I'm so glad I kept detailed notes about her finances. See, this is why the IRS wants you to keep 7 years of tax info! (USA reference -- I don't know about tax record requirements in other countries :)).
Good info regarding what is used in calculating bills. Given that Cash-on-hand is not used in the calculation, Minnie's tax bill makes even less sense. Makes me even more inclined to think it's a bug.
As far as cheats, I have used none, except the initial cheat to bring her cash-on-hand down to 300. Other than that, I have not used any cheats at all, not even for cosmetic purposes. However, I did not manually close the cheat console after using that first cheat. I assumed (incorrectly?) that it closes on its own and definitely closes after any lot-to-lot movement (any time you see a loading screen).

Update:
Last night, her bill was 15,872. This morning it was 15,297. Nothing else changed between the time I logged off and the time I logged on. Weirder and weirder.
Her cash-on-hand was exactly 9,967 (I had rounded it to 10,000 last night).
To keep things on the up-and-up, here's exactly what I did just now:
Beginning Cash .................... 9,967
Cheat-in .............................. 14,797
Pay bills ............................... <15,297>
Ending Cash ......................... 9,467
I hope this is the last of the glitches in the file. Heh I doubt it will be, but a gal can dream, right?
