Tax time is right around the corner and as such we thought it would be fitting to review some of the often forgot about business-related expenses that small business owners may neglect on their taxes.
Of course, each business and their tax circumstances are unique so this is just a general guideline as to what type of expenses you can deduct. For specific questions regarding your business, consult with a qualified professional.
Don’t forget
1. Business expenses – all ordinary and necessary expenses.
2. Business Entertainment – normally, the law allows the deduction for half of the cost of business-related entertainment .
3. Long term assets – assets you expect to last more than a year: office furniture, computer equipment, medical, dental, or other specialized equipment, buildings, automobiles, and books.
4. Retirement plans – retirement accounts designed for small business owners provide tremendous tax benefits. They allow you to put away a significant amount of money into tax-deferred accounts during your working years.
5. Workers – It’s possible you may be able to deduct most or all of what you pay someone you hire as a business expense. Additionally, expenses associated with hiring an independent contractor who performed services for your business may be deducted as business operating expenses.
