Imtixaanku oo dhab ahaantii waafaqsan

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.

Meesha abuurayaasha ay ku dhacaan

• Dharka. The rule isn't "did I wear it for work" — it's whether the item is unsuitable for everyday wear. Costumes iyo muuqata toogasho-ugu yaraan qaybaha waa la difaaci karaa. dhar aad sidoo kale ku xidhan tahay ma aha, laakiin runtii aad iibsatay si ay u toogtaan.
• Guurka. Runtii la isku dayay sida shakhsiga ah, maxaa yeelay dadka badankood waa. ugu xoog badan marka la xidhiidha in ay soo qaado gaar ah oo si cad ka sii dheer oo ka sii caadi ah oo dayactirka.
• Waxyaabaha isku dhafan-u isticmaalka. Telefonka, internetka, guriga aad. Sheeko qaybta ganacsiga run ah, ma aha dhammaan. A 100% sheegashada telefoonka kaliya waa mid ka mid ah wax ugu fudud ee qof kasta oo su'aal.

Kuwa dadka ka maqan

The under-sheegayaa waa caadi ahaan ka sii xun ka badan in ka badan-sheegayaa. Guddiga Hay'adda, chatter iyo editor lacagaha, adeegyada qaado, noocan oo kale ah software, xisaabaadka lacagaha, caymiska ganacsiga, mitir si ay u soo bandhigaan, iyo hoos u dhaca ku saabsan qalabka aad iibsatay sano ka hor iyo weli isticmaalka - dhammaan deductible, dhammaan guud ahaan la ilaaway.

Ilaalinta qoraalka

A dhimista aad ma awoodi kartid caddayn waa dhimista aad ku lumin doontaa haddii qof kasta oo marnaba weydiiso. Aqoonsiga, taariikhda, qiimaha, iyo qoraalka mid-line on sababta ganacsiga. "Amazon $ 340" waa dhibaato; "waxyaabaha lagu xiro 14 March shoot" ma aha.
