Is business exp from single member LLC deductible?
A single member LLC for financial service. The business started in 2018 and used a cash basis. In 2018, he had income and the expenses . However, In 2019, he made NO INCOME but had over $70,000 expenses. I had done some research and seems that it is deductible.
All of a taxpayer's business expenses for a tax year are deductible, even if those expenses exceed the taxpayer's income from the trade or business for that year (Reg. Sec. 1.162-1).
the expenses are mainly Meals, travels, supplies and phone. They are all qualified expenses.
what do you think?
