Egiazki aplikatzen den proba
A business expense has to be ordinary (normal for your line of work) and necessary (helpful and appropriate for it). That's a broad standard, and most of what creators spend money on clears it comfortably. The problems come from three specific places.
Sortzaileak harrapatzen dituzten tokia
- Arropa. The rule isn't "did I wear it for work" — it's whether the item is unsuitable for everyday wear. Jantzi eta filmatzeko soilik diren piezak defendagarriak dira. Erabili ere egiten duzun soinekoa ez da defendagarria, nahiz eta zintzotasunez filmatzeko erosi duzun.
- -Grooming. Normalean, pertsonala bezala erronkatzen da, jende gehienentzat hala delako. Indartsuena tiro zehatz batera lotuta dagoenean eta garbi mantentze arruntetik kanpo.
- Erabilera anitzeko elementuak. Zure telefonoa, zure interneta, zure apartamentua, zure negozioa, ez guztia. Zure telefono bakarraren %100a zurea izatea, errazena da edozeinek galdetzea.
Jendeak faltan botatzen dituenak.
Administrazio komisioak, hizketalari eta editoreen ordainketak, desagertze zerbitzuak, software mota hau, kontularien ordainketak, aseguruak, filmaketa baterako kilometroak, eta orain dela urte batzuk erosi eta oraindik erabiltzen duzun ekipamenduaren deprezioa - denak deduktiboak, denak ohi ahaztuak.
Mantendu paperak.
Egiaztatu ezin duzun kenkari bat galduko duzu inork galdetzen badizu. Ordainketa, data, zenbatekoa eta negozio-helburuari buruzko lerro bakarreko oharra. "Amazon $340" arazoa da; "martxoaren 14ko filmaketarako armairua" ez da.
Ez egin hau zure buruan hilabetero.
