Multi-member LLC & deductions

My friends and I have started a multi member LLC. How do tax deductions work? For example, can we each deduct our cell phones, home offices from our personal taxes?

 

Thanks!

Multi-member LLC & deductions

Schedule K-1 reports the member’s share of LLC income, deduction, and tax credit items. These amounts are then included on the member’s personal tax return.
