Question
If I buy something to review it can I write it off? Im not working with the brand or anything, I'm just choosing to review it on my channel. Thank you!
AI accountant’s answer:
Absolutely! If you're buying items to review on your channel and that's part of your business, you can typically deduct these as business expenses. The key is that the purchase must be ordinary and necessary for your business. So, if you're a tech reviewer buying the latest gadgets, or a fashion blogger buying new clothes to review, those purchases are directly related to your business and can be written off. Just make sure to keep good records of these purchases in case the IRS ever asks.
