Daycare and Taxes>Where Would Child Gate Be Filed?
Mrs. CC 06:57 PM 10-29-2011
I am entering my expenses in MMK and have a childgate I purchased to keep the DCK in the play area while we are in there and out of the kitchen while I am making meals/snacks.
How to I tag that? Is it 100% business because I wouldn't have purchased it if I wasn't watching kids in my home or is it Time and Space because we have to use it (it mounts to the wall) when DCK aren't here?
Thank you!

If you don't have young children of your own who need a child gate, you can deduct 100% of the cost of it. Call it equipment.

Thank you! We have a 6 month old, but wouldn't need the gate (mounted to our wall) where it is if I didn't watch children in our house. So, will take the "aggressive" approach and call it equipment! Thank you!
