kcjenkins Posted April 19, 2015 Report Share Posted April 19, 2015 Clearly, her mistake was the standard "too much information" error. Had it been listed simply as 'office supplies' it would never be questioned. LOL 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jklcpa Posted April 19, 2015 Report Share Posted April 19, 2015 She should have had a business meeting with someone, documented it, and shared a piece of that candy. /s 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richcpaman Posted April 20, 2015 Report Share Posted April 20, 2015 No. If she was "audited" for 89 cents? Me? I give candy bars to my clients. And I might have one as a snack. And I am deducting ALL of them. No M&E deduction, or anything like that. She was in tax court for other reasons. Rich 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BulldogTom Posted April 20, 2015 Report Share Posted April 20, 2015 I have a candy dish on my desk, and I ask every one of my clients to take a piece. I tell them if I am audited, I am going to call every single one of them as a witness at tax court to get my $24 deduction every year.

Max W Posted April 20, 2015 Report Share Posted April 20, 2015 This story does not add up. The form shown is 2106 and the 89 is written in the dollars column, so when the entry clerk entered it, it would be $89, not 89 cts. 2nd. being that is on a 2106 and there do not appear to be any other expenses, the amount whether 80cts of $89 would not have exceeded the 2% bar, so it seems unlikely that the IRS would waste their time on something that would not generate additional tax. There must be more to the story than this. To paraphrase Paul Harvey- What's the rest of the story? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jklcpa Posted April 20, 2015 Report Share Posted April 20, 2015 LOL It's not real. It's posted by SnickersBrand© and labeled as comedy on Youtube, the same Snickers© that has the current commercial starring the Brady Bunch. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gail in Virginia Posted April 21, 2015 Report Share Posted April 21, 2015 I thought that it was a little nutty myself. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
