Deduct Travel and Meal Expenses Business-related travel and meal expenses are deductible, with travel expenses typically fully deductible, and meals being 50% deductible. Example: Business Travel Expenses: $5,000 (flights, hotels, car rental) Meals: $2,000 (50% deductible = $1,000) Total Deductible Expenses: $5,000 (travel) + $1,000 (meals) = $6,000 Revenue: $100,000 Taxable Income: $100,000 - $6,000 = $94,000 Travel and meals incurred for business purposes can be deducted, reducing the taxable income. #tax #accounting #Bookkeeping #audit #payroll

📅 FAQ Accountancy Friday: What Are the Tax-Free Rates for Staff Travel Expenses? Many employees believe they fully understand the rules for claiming travel expenses, but it's often more complex than it seems. While companies can set their own travel policies, HMRC imposes strict thresholds for what it considers reasonable. A company can adopt the standard rates or negotiate bespoke rates with HMRC. If staff spend more than the standard or bespoke rates, they will be charged income tax and national insurance contributions via the P11D form, which employers must submit every July. Here’s a breakdown of HMRC's meal allowance rates (eligible only when away from work for at least 5 hours): 👉 5+ hours: Max claim £5 👉 10+ hours: Max claim £10 👉 12+ hours: Max claim £15 👉 24+ hours: Max claim £25 For mileage, HMRC’s approved rates are: - Cars/vans: 45p per mile (up to 10,000 miles), 25p thereafter - Motorcycles: 24p per mile - Bicycles: 20p per mile To avoid unexpected tax charges, make sure to stay within HMRC-approved rates and keep your travel expenses in check! ✅ #FAQFriday #StaffExpenses #MileageClaims #TaxCompliance #Accountancy
