Body Oil
Do you plan on becoming a bodybuilder? Then you might consider special vitamin supplements and buffalo meat, both used to enhance strength and muscle development, as a business expense… but the IRS will disagree with you.
However, one beauty builder found that it’s perfectly acceptable to deduct body oil used to make muscles glisten in the lights during competitions.
What a strange world we live in…
Free Beer
Alcohol and gasoline do not mix! Well… they shouldn’t under normal circumstances, but for tax purposes? The IRS says it’s OK!
When a service station started offering a free beer with a fill-up, their gasoline sales went up. As such, the Tax Court said it’s alright to deduct the cost of the beer as a business expense, even if the IRS initially disagreed.
