I'm not a tax person, but a few years ago a mates son was a bicycle courier and he claimed his, along with maintenance costs.Now I'm having a bit of a grave dig here! so excuse me for bringing this back up. But it is a legitimate question none the less.
So at the time of purchasing my bike, I was working full time as a trail builder and using my bike to ride and test the trails that were being built. Over the duration of working full-time I literally only used my bike once or twice outside of work (flogged after work weeks and weren't riding much at the time)
now am I able to claim this as work related expense as it was actually used for my work? I'd prefer to follow the rules etc, I just can't find much info about it.
Thanks!
yep, as it's being used for work; i cant see why not.I'm not a tax person, but a few years ago a mates son was a bicycle courier and he claimed his, along with maintenance costs.
Can't see how this is any different. Its a tool of trade.
you monster! They are organic corn shops, stone ground.as opposed to someone who sits on a pc all day watching porn, masturbating and eating doritos.
This should actually be fine.Now I'm having a bit of a grave dig here! so excuse me for bringing this back up. But it is a legitimate question none the less.

Isn't this your actual job description?yep, as it's being used for work; i cant see why not.
no different to me being able to claim PC related costs due to my field, as opposed to someone who sits on a pc all day watching porn, masturbating and eating doritos.
A good point I missed in my post.You'd probably be asked to provide a usage log to "prove" your claim. Also the depreciation would probably be based on % pa. I doubt they'd agree to 33% pa.
I make porn :no idea: just put it down as research everytime.no different to me being able to claim PC related costs due to my field, as opposed to someone who sits on a pc all day watching porn, masturbating and eating doritos.
You got a new gig? Not changing the lives of the misfits and social retards booted out of school anymore?you monster! They are organic corn shops, stone ground.
Ive contemplated the above with my new job. Getting paid to ride with my client a couple of times a week, and him using my bike. Could be the perfect crime :spy:
Why not? Computers and such are 33% p.a?You'd probably be asked to provide a usage log to "prove" your claim. Also the depreciation would probably be based on % pa. I doubt they'd agree to 33% pa.
That IS my new gig, cock eyes. Sounds like I have, or should be, teaching YOU.You got a new gig? Not changing the lives of the misfits and social retards booted out of school anymore?
