Tax Court rejects living expense deductions for research
Carl R Johnson of Atherton California told the U S Tax Court he was developing a new economic theory and sought to deduct personal living costs as research and development. Judge Quealy said deductions must be business related and Johnson, a salesman, offered no good faith basis for treating living expenses as R and E costs. The court also ruled that reimbursed business travel must be included in income and only excess amounts are deductible.
