Deductions & credits

You can deduct the amount of your cell phone bill (that includes the payments you are making towards the phone) based on the percentage that you use it for business. For example, lets say your cell phone bill was $500.00 (used 100% of the time). You calculated that you used your phone 30% of the time for business and 70% of the time for personal. So $500.00 multiplied by 30%= $150.00. You can write off $150.00 as a business expense, and $350.00 would be a personal expense.
