Reporting Farm vehicle actual expenses at 75% business use rate
Publication 225 says we can claim 75% use of farm car or light truck as business use without any allocation records and can use either standard mileage rate or actual expenses. My client is wanting to use this method with actual expenses; however, the only way I see to load the actual expenses is in the "Auto & Additional Info" screen of the truck Depreciation record. I loaded the business use % as 75%, but this seems to only affect the depreciation amount. The program is requiring business and total miles to calculate the other actual expenses (gas, oil change, insurance, etc) instead of the business use %, which is less than the 75% rate. Do I need to override the other actual expenses to get the 75% allocation or is there a way to trigger the 75% rate through the program?
