What I am now planning to do is the following:
Weekdays without games: Home -> Work -> Home = Personal Miles
Weekends with games: Home -> Gym -> Home = Commuting Miles
Weekdays with games: Home -> Work = Commuting Miles
Work -> Gym = Business Miles
Gym -> Home = Commuting Miles
Does that make sense?
Another Questions: I got paid in March 2015 for games worked from Dec 2014 to March 2015. I got paid in Nov 2015 for games worked from March 2015 to Oct 2015. Should I deduct miles from Dec 2014 through Nov 2015 (I think so) or from Jan 2015 though Dec 2015? |
No, it does not make sense.
home -> work -> home is commuting miles.
home ->run errands (go on vacation, gop out to dinner, etc) are personal miles
Deduct the miles in the year they were driven.
Add the income in the year it was received.
