Tax Deduction for Vehicles
If you spend a large amount of time in your car as part of your home business then Uncle Sam say you can deduct the cost of your business use. There are two ways monitor your vehicular tax deduction, either through tracking actual costs or use the IRS standard mileage allowance.
If you use the actual expense method then here is a list of the expenses that you may deduct: - Garage rent
- Gas
- Insurance
- Lease payments
- Licenses
- Oil
- Parking
- Servicing
- Tires
- Tolls
- Towing
In addition to these allowances if you own your car you can also depreciate it. Which means you can deduct a portion of the cost of the car. The IRS sets the portion that you can deduct on a yearly basis, so for an exact number either ask you accountant or check out the IRS website at www.irs.com On the other hand, if you don’t want to go through the hassle of deduction the actual business cost of using your personal car for your home business then you can use the IRS standard mileage tax deduction.
