I bought a printer, a scanner and an inexpensive laptop. Each item was under $300, so I'd rather expense them than depreciate. Where do I put them - in Office Expenses?

Or in Other Miscellaneous Expenses?  I don't see inexpensive equipment listed in an expense category in Turbo Tax.

Yes, you may enter these type of purchases under any reasonable business expense category found under "Other Common Expenses" (see screenshot #1 below - click to enlarge).

Office Expenses is one choice, or you can enter a custom description under Other Miscellaneous Expenses (screenshot #2).

Note:  If you enter a general business expense in the wrong category, it will not affect your taxes. Just be sure you don't enter the same expense twice.

The comment that if you put expenses in the wrong category it won't affect your taxes, just don't enter them twice. So no flags will be raised if a larger $ appears let's say in utilities versus Other or Office expenses?
