Podcasts about deductions

Thinking about buying a new vehicle? Dr. Friday explains the new rules for deducting auto loan interest and who qualifies based on income. Transcript G'day, I'm Dr. Friday, president of Dr. Friday's Tax and Financial Firm. To get more info, go to www.drfriday.com. This is a one-minute moment. Auto loans can deduct up to ten thousand dollars of interest, but there's always a but—it has to be new. It has to be a new car, minivan, SUV, pickup truck, or motorcycle after the year of 2024. And you need to have, again, limitations to income: $100,000 for individuals and $200,000 if filing joint. If your income is above that, you will not be able to qualify. If it's under, you might be able to qualify. So maybe this is a good time to think—do I need a car now or within the next few months? Because if you don't buy at the right time and the right car, you may not be able to deduct this interest, which normally we can't. Check me out, drfriday.com.

There's a lot of confusion about the new $6,000 deduction for seniors. Dr. Friday clears up the difference between a deduction and a credit. Transcript G'day, I'm Dr. Friday, president of Dr. Friday's Tax and Financial Firm. To get more info, go to www.drfriday.com. This is a one-minute moment. I'm gonna talk a lot about the OBBB, because especially for seniors, Social Security, there's a lot of myths and things going on out there that you're gonna get $6,000 if you have Social Security. It's not going to be the same thing. This is a deduction, right? Deductions mean we get to reduce our income. Credits mean we get to put the money in our pocket dollar for dollar. So if we have a $6,000 deduction that you'll be able to add if you have taxable Social Security and your income source is trackable, that's great. But you're not going to be $6,000 in your pocket. That is not a refundable credit. If you got more questions, call us 615-367-0819. You can catch the Dr. Friday Call-in Show live every Saturday afternoon from 2 to 3 p.m. right here on 99.7 WTN.

Driving for work? Dr. Friday explains the rules for mileage deductions, who qualifies, and what trips don't count toward your tax write-offs. Transcript G'day, I'm Dr. Friday, president of Dr. Friday's Tax and Financial Firm. To get more info, go to www.drfriday.com. This is a one-minute moment. For all of my people that drive their car for making money—meaning your Ubers, or if you're a real estate individual and you're tracking your miles—this is a perfect time. We get 70 cents a mile for true business miles. Now that does not include commuting. So if you're at home and you're going to your office and then you're coming back home, even if you have a home office, in some cases you cannot deduct two offices. If you're working from home for your own purpose, that's not gonna be a deduction. If you're doing it because the boss says, “Hey, we don't have room in the office, you work from home,” then that home office may qualify as long as you're on a 1099. You have any more questions, just give our office a call. You can catch the Dr. Friday Call-in Show live every Saturday afternoon from 2 to 3 p.m. right here on 99.7 WTN.

Tax Relief with Timalyn Bowens Charitable Contributions Episode 68:  In this episode, Timalyn continues the discussion begun in Episode 64 about the One Big Beautiful Bill Act.   Today, she's explaining the charitable contribution deduction and the changes that have been made to it under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act. What is a charitable contribution? Charitable contributions are money or property that are given to a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations, religious organizations, educational institutions, fraternal organizations, public cemetaries, and certain government organizations. The IRS has a search tool that can be used to look up tax exempt organizations.  Charitable Contributions Deduction The IRS allows taxpayers to receive a deduction for the charitable contributions they give to qualified organizations. This deduction lowers the taxpayer's taxable income. In the past this deduction has been reserved for taxpayer's who itemize deductions. During COVID taxpayers who didn't itemize could receive a partial charitable contribution deduction . The One Big Beautiful Bill Act brings this back with an increased amount. Taxpayers who do not itemize can still deduct up to $1,000 of their charitable contributions ($2,000 if married filing jointly).  For those who do itemize the One Big Beautiful Bill Act introduces a floor to this deduction. Taxpayers can deduct the amount they have given that is over .5% of their adjusted gross income (AGI). Timalyn uses the example of a taxpayer having an AGI of $100,000. .5% of that is $500. That means the taxpayer can deduct the amount they have given to charitable organizations that is over $500. Donation Tax Deduction Limit The amount that can be deducted for charitable contributions is not unlimited. For cash donations it is limited to 60% of the taxpayer's adjusted gross income. So for the taxpayer who has an AGI of $100,000 they cannot deduct more than $60,000 in cash donations for the current tax year.  If the taxpayer has given more than 60% of their AGI in charitable contributions the amount that exceeds the limit rolls over to the next year. This does not apply to those who receive will take the partial charitable contribution deduction.  Deductions given to private foundations and cemetery organizations are limited to 30% of taxpayer's adjusted gross income.  Charitable Contribution Record Keeping Taxpayers are responsible for keeping track of their donations. For any cash donation of $250 or more a contemporaneous statement from the organization is required to substantiate the deduction.  If volunteering the value of the taxpayer's time may not be deducted. However, the mileage they drive with their personal vehicle can be deducted at 14 cents per mile (2025). Also the direct costs associated with volunteering may be deducted. For non-cash donations of at least $500 written acknowledgement from the organization from the charity and Form 8283, Noncash Charitable Contributions is required.  For non-cash donations valued at $5,000 or more a qualified appraiser must do an appraisal of the property, complete section B of Form 8283, and sign it along with someone from the charity.    Need Tax Help Now?

Veronique de Rugy critiques US tax "carveouts," identifying them as inefficient special interest deductions that often fail to incentivize desired behaviors, citing employer health insurance and mortgage interest deductions. While a flat tax would streamline the system and boost economic growth by focusing on consumption, de Rugy emphasizes that no tax system alone can resolve the severe US debt crisis; crucial reforms to Social Security and Medicare are indispensable. 1870 SIEGE OF PARIS

In this Tax Tuesday episode, Anderson tax attorneys Amanda Wynalda, Esq., and Eliot Thomas, Esq., tackle a diverse range of tax questions covering rental property strategies, depreciation rules, and business structure optimization. They explain the tax implications of renting property to family members below market rates, including income reporting requirements and limited deduction capabilities. The attorneys discuss gifting rental properties to children and the associated gift tax filing requirements, while exploring sophisticated property management company structures for generating earned income and maximizing retirement contributions. They provide detailed guidance on utilizing IRS sections 168 and 179 for depreciation and bonus depreciation, clarifying the current 100% bonus depreciation rules and debunking outdated 80% figures. Other topics include S-corp benefits for 1099 contractors, holistic health business taxation, accountable plan cell phone deductions backed by IRS Notice 2011-72, vehicle deduction methods and limitations, and even professional gambling expense deductions for Vegas visitors. Throughout the episode, they emphasize proper entity structuring, asset protection, and tax planning strategies. Submit your tax question to taxtuesday@andersonadvisors.com Highlights/Topics: "I have a question about tax implications of renting my property to my parents. If I rent it to them for less than fair market value, are there any tax incentives or exemptions in this situation? I'm trying to understand whether I would still need to report the income and if I would lose the ability to deduct expenses associated with the property." - Must report income; IRS treats below-market family rentals as not-for-profit activities. "In 2024, I deeded some rental properties to my children about $250,000 each. Is there a way to write this off?" - No deduction available; must file Form 709 for gift tax reporting. "I have four rental properties. I personally manage them through an LLC. Can I use my company as a management company and charge a 20% fee for managing it to be able to show I have earned income and then contribute to an IRA? Also, would I be able to establish a Roth IRA?" - Yes, with reasonable fees and proper structure; enables IRA contributions. "How do I utilize IRS code section 168 and 179 for depreciation and bonus depreciation? How do I buy cars and furniture right off up to 80% of the value of the property every time I buy a house rental or asset? Can I utilize AI or any AI software with these to automate and hands off anything?" - Use 179 first, then 168 bonus depreciation; now 100% not 80%. "I'm a 1099 independent contractor. I own two pieces of property, one is my primary residence, the other has a home and a small apartment on it that I rent out long term under the table. My thoughts are that I need to create an LLC for my business, possibly an S corp. As I understand the tax laws, there will be no way to use any of the rental properties to reduce the tax burden of my 1099 income. Am I on the right track here?" - Report all income; S-corp saves self-employment tax; passive losses don't offset. "I'm going to start a consulting business that focuses on holistic health. What should I be looking for in the next six months or so when I launch? Is taxation different from real estate and in what way?" - Consider S-corp for self-employment tax savings; business expenses differ significantly. "With an accountable plan, can I deduct a hundred percent of a cell phone? Is there some documentation that backs this up? Prove it." - Yes, 100% deductible with S/C-corp; IRS Notice 2011-72 provides documentation. "I have a question about vehicle deductions. There are two methods available, the standard mileage deduction and the actual expense method. Can I use the actual method to claim all the depreciation in one year, then switch to the standard mileage deduction in subsequent years. If this is possible, how does it work? Assume the vehicle is used a hundred percent for business purposes." - Three methods exist; business-owned vehicles allow 100% bonus depreciation benefits. "Since you're in Vegas, you might know the answer to this one. My friend won a reportable jackpot, mid five figures, and he was wondering if he could deduct the travel lodging expenses just as he might do if he made this money as a business deal or future excursions to Sin City to try and extend his winnings." - Only if professional gambler with business intent and meticulous records.

In this special solo episode, Melissa Joy, CFP®, CDFA, breaks down the newly passed One Big, Beautiful Bill Act—yes, that's really the name! Signed into law on July 4th, this sweeping piece of legislation (affectionately nicknamed “OB3”) will impact everything from your tax brackets to your charitable deductions, and much more in between. Whether you're a retiree, parent, small business owner, or high earner, Melissa walks through what's changing, what's staying, and what you need to know to navigate the financial road ahead.⚖️ Key Topics Covered:

Tax can be overwhelming, especially when it feels like the rules keep changing and the grey areas keep growing. In a recent episode of Business Built Freedom, Lawrence Petruzzelli from MDB Taxation & Business Advisors unpacked the most common traps and misconceptions around business tax deductions, vehicle claims, and business structures. Whether you are starting out or scaling fast, getting this stuff right can save you money, stress, and even your business.  Key Takeaways  The ATO only allows business tax deductions that have a direct connection to generating business income, so not everything “business-related” is claimable.  High-end vehicles and luxury claims attract serious ATO scrutiny, especially without proper Fringe Benefits Tax documentation.  Everyday items like phones and internet still require proportionate claims and supporting records.  Structuring your business properly from the beginning can prevent tax headaches and protect your assets.  Late lodgements can be more damaging than late payments, with serious consequences for directors if ATO debt builds up.  Read More

As tax season approaches, property investors are being urged to plan early and strategically to optimise their returns and stay compliant. In this episode of The Smart Property Investment Show, journalist Emilie Lauer sits down with Munzurul Khan from KHI Partners to discuss how investors should approach tax planning, deductions, and structures. Munzurul stresses the importance of pre-30 June actions, like bringing forward deductible expenses, and outlines key deductions investors often overlook, including purchase-related costs and lender's mortgage insurance. Munzurul warns against common errors, such as confusing capital improvements with repairs or failing to claim interest correctly. Maintaining clear monthly records and substantiating all claims are vital, especially in the event of an Australian Taxation Office audit. For investors using negative gearing, Munzurul explains that its value lies in offsetting rental losses, though it's limited by taxable income. He also discusses the tax implications of changing property use and how ownership structure can influence tax outcomes. Finally, Munzurul notes that while trusts and companies can offer tax benefits, they carry added complexity, so investors should stay informed and seek professional advice for long-term success.
