The Simplified Method is based on the number of months you use the home office at least 15 days out of the month. The percentage of your entire home is only used for the actual expenses method.

 

Example:

Home office = 300 sq ft

Use the home office for any period of time every weekday (20 days/month) for 9 out of 12 months = 75%

Simple Method = 300 sq ft x 75% = 225 x $5 = $1,125
