Episode #8: Deducting Business Expenses in an Unprofitable Business

Business expenses are the cost of carrying on a trade or business. These expenses are usually deductible if the business operates to make a profit.  Even without income, you may be able to deduct your expenses, as long as you meet certain IRS guidelines. Your business loss can offset other income on your tax return and lower your overall tax bill. The test for being able to deduct your expenses is whether you are operating a true business and not practicing a hobby. Let's Talk About!

Episode 5: Show Me What You Got (The Crypto Tax Remix)

Episode 5: Show Me What You Got (The Crypto Tax Remix)

Who is old as dirt like me and remembers Jay-Z's song "Show Me What You Got?" That song is a straight classic! Well, the IRS just dropped the remix to that classic song! The IRS is looking for new ways to find out about your cryptocurrency transactions. Starting on the 2019 tax returns, there will be a question regarding virtual currencies. The new question will be “At any time during 2019, did you receive, sell, send, exchange or otherwise acquire any financial interest in any virtual currency?” Your two options to the question will be simply “yes” or “no.” As we all know, nothing about taxes are simple.

Just listen to Jade and "Don't walk away." In this episode, I will discuss the reasons why you should respond to the letters.
