Write It Off! Deduct It!: The A-to-Z Guide to Tax Deductions for Home-Based Businesses

Are you paying more taxes than you have to? There are more than nineteen million home-based businesses in the United States―56 percent of all businesses―and they generate $102 billion in annual revenue. As far as the IRS is concerned a home business is no different than any other business. But there is a difference: not only can you deduct the business expenses that every business is entitled to you can turn personal nondeductible expenses into tax-deductible business expenses―if you are careful to follow the rules. No tax software or accountant knows the details of your home-based business like you do and the IRS is certainly not going to tell you about a deduction you failed to take. This invaluable book not only lists the individual items that are deductible in your home-based business―from utilities to that part of the home where you work―but also explains where to list them on your income tax forms.
