If you've considered attending a cruise that relates to your business-you won't want to miss this episode. Learn the ways you can and can't write off a cruise as a business expense. Facebook Group for Tax ProfessionalsFacebook Group for Real Estate Investors [00:00:00] [00:00:00] Welcome to Real Estate is Taxing, where we talk about all things real estate tax, and break down complex concepts into understandable, entertaining tax topics. My name is Natalie Kolodij, I'm your host, and I am so excited that you've decided to join me.[00:00:23] Hello. Hello everyone. And welcome to this week's episode. The past several months, I have attended multiple conferences, tax conferences, real estate conferences, all across the country. Various venues. And it got me thinking about one of my favorite travel business topic. Overlaps. Which is when you can and when you can not. Deduct travel on a cruise ship. [00:00:53] There's a lot of blogs and articles out there, but they're all fairly vague or they give very [00:01:00] generalized steps and don't really talk about the feasibility of it. Or actual examples of it. I spent some time today searching for some court cases related to this topic. And there really aren't any specific to cruise ship travel as its own deduction. [00:01:19] I couldn't find it as a focus point of a case. I did find some court cases that were semi-related we'll chat about one of those at the end. But outside of that, there's not a ton of guidance because it's pretty cut and dry. [00:01:34] [00:01:34] The code section for this hasn't changed since 1982. So there haven't been any big updates or anything that really needed to be contested in recent years. So let's get into it. There are two different ways you can potentially write off a cruise as a business expense. Both of these are covered in code section [00:02:00] 2 74 M and they are split between addressing conventions on cruise ships. And then a secondary category known as luxury water travel. So starting off with conventions on cruise ships. This is something that I hear about pretty often. I think anyone in the tax industry and real estate in a lot of industries, There are multiple cruises per year related to most industries that you can choose to attend. [00:02:33] It will be in most cases, a seven day cruise. They will buy a room block the same way they would for a conference at a hotel or a resort. And then everything takes place on the cruise. There are however many hours of education. There are, different conference related events and networking. [00:02:51] They're renting out general speaking areas. And attendees pay for the room. And the cruise fare, it's all typically rolled [00:03:00] into one price. So these are marketed pretty frequently. And I have most often seen these marketed as a deductible business expense. But the truth of it is very rarely. Is a conference or an educational event on a cruise ship. Going to just easily be deductible. So let's start off with the first. Addressing of this. [00:03:29] So let's look at how the code words, this. In the case of any individual who attends a convention, seminar, or other meeting, which is held on any cruise ship. No deduction shall be allowed under section 1 62 for expenses allocable to such meeting. Unless the taxpayer meets the requirements of paragraph five. And establishes that the meeting is directly related to the active [00:04:00] conduct of his or her trade or business. So code section 1 62. Is the part of the tax code that explains ordinary and necessary business expenses. As a starting point, attending a convention seminar, et cetera, on a cruise ship. Is only a business deduction. If it directly relates to the taxpayers ongoing trader business, that makes sense. Next part. Again, it is directly related to the active conduct of his or her trader business. And that, and then it goes on to list two requirements. Requirement number one, the cruise ship is a vessel that is registered in the United States. And requirement number two. All ports of call of that cruise ship are located in the United States or in possession of the United States. [00:04:53] So when we just start off with looking at these two initial requirements, I will [00:05:00] let you guess how many cruise ships you think fit the bill? If we are looking at large commercial cruise lines. there's a thousand, 2000 people on board, maybe more. It normally is a week long, goes out to a few islands, go somewhere else. But we're not talking about like a river cruise or one of those little boats that'll fit like a hundred to 300 people, But one of those large commercial cruise ships, where there is a buffet and like a kid's club and water slides and all of that. One we're looking at that level of cruise ship. There is one. Singular ship that meets the requirement. Norwegian cruise lines, pride of America based in Hawaii is us registered. And it is the only large commercial cruise lines, cruise ship. That is us registered. Most cruise ships are registered to other countries for a variety of reasons. So just right off the bat, most cruise [00:06:00] ships are not going to meet this requirement. The vast majority of cruises and cruise ships do not check the boxes. To be able to write off a convention or seminar that is held on a cruise ship. If it did, let's say that. Your industry is hosting a cruise that goes to Hawaii on that pride of America cruise ship. So it is us registered and it is only going to the United States. [00:06:28] then there is a $2,000 expense limit. For the total cost of that cruise with that seminar or convention. Total expense CAPTA, $2,000. In addition to that, if you happen to find a cruise that ticks all of the boxes and does qualify. To write off as a convention or an event that is held on a cruise ship. There's a whole bunch of reporting requirements that are required as [00:07:00] well. for the tax year where you're claiming that deduction. You also need to include. A written statement. Signed by the individual attending the meeting. [00:07:10] That includes information about the trip, the total days that excludes the transport to, and from the cruise ship. The number of hours each day of the trip where you devoted to only business activities. You need to include a program or schedule for all of the business activities or meetings. And any other information that might be required by the secretary. [00:07:36] Additionally, you also need to include. A written statement signed by an officer of the organization or group sponsoring the meeting or the conference. And that has to include. A schedule of the business activities for each day, the number of hours, which you attended those business activity. And any other [00:08:00] information as might be required by the secretary. so for the amount that we are fed and marketed cruises that are a tax deduction and attending these seminars on a cruise that are going to be a write off, they're likely not going to be. And in the rare event, they are. They're a huge pain in the ass to include everything you need to on your tax return to claim that deduction. So that's not a very likely option. [00:08:27] It's not my favorite option. But that's what we have for the availability of writing off a convention or a seminar that is specifically held on a cruise ship.[00:08:39] The next option that I think is the far better choice. Is looking at your crews under the definition of luxury...

TikTok, and other apps like it, are filled with financial advice. Some of it is reliable, some... less so. There are videos about running a business, having a side hustle, generating passive income. And also, there are a lot of tips and tricks, many of them questionable, about saving on your taxes. On this show, we run some of the greatest hits of TikTok tax advice by some bonafide tax experts. We'll talk about whether you can use gambling losses to reduce your tax bill, whether your pets qualify you for tax deductions – and we'll fact check the claim that all rich people own expensive Mercedes G-Wagons... for tax purposes. Along the way, we'll drill down on the concepts like taxable income and the standard deduction. And we'll ask why so many videos on TikTok suggest that you (fraudulently) categorize personal expenses as business expenses. Sometimes with a literal wink and a nod.

Understand that deductions are tax savings that reduce taxable income, not a direct cash benefit. Consistent tracking and strategy of vehicle use are essential for claiming deductions. Adding a wrap or logo to a car does not qualify the vehicle as a full-time, 100% deductible advertising expense.

Even though we know we *should*, we don't always remember to (or aren't able to) put every business expense on our business card.

In today's episode of the Real Estate Syndication Show, we had the pleasure of speaking with Kelsey Head, a seasoned tax expert and partner at Head Tiler LLP. Kelsey brought her 19 years of tax experience to the table, providing invaluable insights into the tax nuances of passive investments, particularly in real estate syndication.Key Takeaways:Passive Loss Limitations: Kelsey clarified a common misconception among new investors regarding passive losses. The IRS allows the collection of passive income without concern, but passive losses can only be deducted against passive income, not active income like wages from a job.Depreciation and Passive Investments: Many investors are enticed by the promise of significant depreciation in the first year of investment. However, Kelsey pointed out that unless you have other passive income, these losses don't provide an immediate tax benefit. They are not lost but carried forward to offset future gains from the sale of the property.Active Participation Requirements: To be considered active in an investment, one would need to contribute at least 500 hours of work to a single activity. For limited partners in a syndication deal, achieving this level of involvement is highly unlikely.Offsetting Gains with Carried Forward Losses: When a property is sold, and a gain is realized, the passive losses that have been carried forward can be used to offset this gain, reducing the potential tax burden.Investment Timing and Strategy: Kelsey suggested that investors might need to be more strategic with their investment timing, especially with the phase-down of bonus depreciation from 100% in 2022 to 80% in 2023 and further reducing in subsequent years.This episode shed light on the intricacies of passive investment taxation, emphasizing the importance of understanding the IRS rules and planning accordingly. Kelsey's expertise highlighted the need for investors to manage their expectations regarding immediate tax benefits and to consider their long-term investment strategy for optimizing tax advantages.Remember to like, subscribe, and share the Real Estate Syndication Show with friends who could benefit from these insights into real estate investing and taxation.VISIT OUR WEBSITEhttps://lifebridgecapital.com/Here are ways you can work with us here at Life Bridge Capital:⚡️START INVESTING TODAY: If you think that real estate syndication may be right for you, contact us today to learn more about our current investment opportunities: https://lifebridgecapital.com/investwithlbc⚡️Watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheRealEstateSyndicationShow

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 1: According to House Ways & Means Chairman Jason Smith (R-MO), two whistleblowers have informed Congress that the Department of Justice intentionally excluded evidence in their investigation into Hunter Biden—and alleged that the U.S. Attorney for the District of Delaware David Weiss “tried to bring charges” against Hunter “in the District of Columbia and was denied.” He also attempted to bring charges in “Central District of California” but “had that request denied” as well. In her recent editorial for The Wall Street Journal, columnist Kimberly Strassel writes of Internal Revenue Service (IRS) whistleblower Gary Shapley's testimony: “Mr. Shapley provided further evidence of influence peddling. He gave the committee a 2017 WhatsApp message in which Hunter tells a Chinese businessman ‘I am sitting here with my father' and pushes the businessman to fulfill a ‘commitment.' He warns the businessman to personally resolve the issue that night, or ‘I will make certain that between the man sitting next to me and every person he knows and my ability to forever hold a grudge that you will regret not following my direction.'” You can read Strassel's full editorial here: https://www.wsj.com/articles/the-hunter-biden-whistle-blows-arrest-doj-irs-firearm-felony-jail-9d114e5f?mod=opinion_featst_pos1 During her Friday press briefing, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said “this is not a conversation I have had with the president” in response to whistleblower allegations being made about Hunter Biden's influence peddling and President Joe Biden's potential knowledge of it. Victor Nava of The New York Post writes of allegations made by an IRS whistleblower, “Hunter Biden illegally deducted tens of thousands of dollars in payments made to a prostitute and a sex club from his taxes,” according to Congressional testimony.

If you have a mortgage, you may be able to deduct interest paid on your tax return. Some may hear that and think “duh - obviously,” but it's actually more complicated than most people consider. First, it's not guaranteed; mortgage interest only counts if you itemize your deductions or if you're a 1099 earner with a home office and you actualize your expenses. But even more difficult to comprehend is the amount you can actually take as a deduction, especially if you have a mortgage balance that exceeds certain thresholds, multiple loans, points, and refinances. In this episode, we'll get into the ways to maximize your deduction and bring clarity to what the IRS rules say on this matter.

In this episode of Anderson Business Advisors, Toby Mathis speaks with Jeff Mason and Chris Hammond about cash balance pension plans for business owners. This is not a 401(k), it's not an IRA, it's a way to defer and even reduce a portion of the taxes you might need to pay and set yourself up with an annual income when you retire - if you are a business owner. This is for all business entities. True pass-throughs, S Corps, sole proprietorships, and partnerships work best in this savings scenario. Many people that have even heard of defined benefit plans, or cash balance plans, might think you can't start contributing until later in life, and that used to be true, but now people like Chris and Jeff are designing plans for people in their 30s. Jeff and Chris will go over what the benefits, timelines, and rules are regarding these plans, give you some sample scenarios with actual clients they have helped, and also answer some specific questions that Toby has about their validity, value and future potential for participants. Highlights/Topics: The basics - How business owners can set up an income for themselves at retirement, the requirements to contribute, how much you can put in, how much you can take out and the tax implications Some examples of Jeff's clients and the actual numbers they are working with Deadlines and potential increases in contribution limits from the IRS Are Jeff and Chris going to try to “sell you” stuff if you go to them for help? No- the retirement community is very small, everyone would know if you were operating in an unethical way. We want more referrals, not less, so everything is highly ethical and we don't take advantage of people Get in touch with Jeff and Chris - there's no cost for your initial consultation and even developing a sample plan - they just want to see if their services can help you!

In the last episode, we covered how to deduct your personal vehicle if you're using it for business. So if you have a vehicle under your personal name and you're using it once in a while for business, we gave you a couple of ways to deduct that. Now we're moving into deducting a dedicated business vehicle, meaning it is used more than 50% for business. In this case, you are going to want to consider putting it in your business's name in order to take advantage of depreciation. I'm going to break down this strategy and give you some things to think about when it comes to purchasing a business vehicle. * Questions about this episode?
