There's no denying that corporate tax is one of the largest expenses for any successful business. To maximize savings, business owners need to be mindful of money-saving strategies year-round. One of the simplest ways to minimize tax burden is to take advantage of all the tax deductions available. That means collecting receipts of all business expenses no matter how small or large. These expenses add up and will reduce the tax bill come tax time.
For example, as more Canadians begin working from home, entrepreneurs and small business owners should be aware of tax advantages. If the primary place of business is the home, it's possible to claim a percentage of home expenses, typically in relation to the size of the workspace compared to the home. If the workspace is roughly 7% of the home, it's necessary to claim a portion of home expenses that relate to operating the business. Some examples would be utilities, house insurance, cleaning costs, property taxes, and mortgage interest.
If a business has a non-capital loss, years when expenses exceed income, a tax specialist will utilize this loss when the business finally turns a profit.
