Mtihani ambao kwa kweli watumika

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.

Mahali ambapo wafanyizaji hukamatwa

  • Mavazi. The rule isn't "did I wear it for work" — it's whether the item is unsuitable for everyday wear. Mavazi ya kushonea na vipande vya wazi vya risasi ni ya kutiliwa hofu.
  • Kuoka choo. Watu wengi hushawishiwa kuwa mtu binafsi, kwa sababu wao hujihisi kuwa na nguvu zaidi wanapopigwa risasi hususa na bila shaka hawawezi kuibeba.
  • Vitu vilivyochanganywa. Asilimia 100 ya watu wanadai kupitia simu yako, mtandao wa intaneti, nyumba yako.

Watu hao wanakosa

Tume ya uwekezaji, upigaji - picha, huduma za upigaji - picha, huduma za uhasibu, ada za uhasibu, bima ya biashara, upigaji risasi, na upigaji picha wa vifaa ulivyonunua miaka mingi iliyopita na bado utumie STyptible, vyote ambavyo kwa kawaida vimesahauliwa.

Andika fomu

Kupunguziwa kodi hakuwezi kuwa uthibitisho wa kupoteza kama kuna mtu yeyote atawahi kuuliza.
