Has anyone been to the gas pumps lately? Soon $3 a gallon will be the asking price and we’ll either have to become cyclists or create some additional income. I plan to do both of course because you can balance thrift and greed pretty well as you ride your bike to work.I only live a few miles from my place of employment so riding my bike there is no big deal. I’ve already made a few practice runs, time and safest route. The problem is I live in S. Flor
New changes in the tax laws have made it easier than ever to claim Home Office Deductions and keep more of what you earn.
If your home is a place of business, many of your personal expenses can be deducted as business expenses resulting in lower taxes.
You may be thinking, "I have an Accountant/CPA/Tax Preparer/Tax Software who knows all about tax deductions so I don't have to know anything about them."
There are several reasons why that thinking could be costing you thousands of tax dollars. Some of those reasons are:
- Most Accountants/CPA's/Tax Preparers do not "specialize" in Home-Based Businesses and do not keep up with the ever-changing laws pertaining to them.
- You are ultimately responsible for knowing what you can and cannot deduct as business expenses. Why? YOU are accountable to the IRS for your deductions, not the tax preparer.
- If you pay someone to do your taxes you still need to know what you can deduct so that you can gather all relevant paperwork.
- The most compelling reason: Getting the greatest benefit from your deductions.
To qualify for these deductions you must meet 2 conditions, which most, if not all, Internet Marketers meet.

Before sharing these recommendations, I suggest that you have a way of tracking your expenses. This will give you a clear picture of what you spend daily, weekly and/or monthly and aid you in reducing expenses where needed.1) Accept the fact you are in debt and forgive yourself.

Condition 2: Are you in business to make a profit?
Whether you made a profit or not is immaterial. Even if you lost money but intended to make a profit these deductions are still available to you.
If you answered yes to both of these questions then you do own a Home-Based Business and as such you are qualified to deduct Business Assets, Direct and Indirect Expenses.
Business Assets include business equipment such as computer, fax machines, business furniture such as desk (your dining room table for instance), desk chair and filing cabinets. These are 100% deductible if they are used "exclusively" for business purposes.
If these assets are not used "exclusively' for business the amount you can deduct is proportionally related to how much these things are used in your business. It is possible to deduct a portion of your living room, sofa, DVD player etc if you meet certain conditions.
