The rate will increase to 58.5 cents a mile for all business miles driven from July 1, 2008, through Dec. 31, 2008.

As mentioned by the IRS, several business and the others due to a high gas prices may claim the increase of gas Mileage reimbursement. As told by the tax agency, the optional universal rate to compute the Deductible operating expenses for business vehicles will increase from 50.5 cents per mile to 58.5 cents for the next six months of 2008. The rate can also be applied to businesses and others that are entitled to reduction allowances that manage automobiles for medical, moving or charitable purposes. Increasing of gas prices is having a great impact on most Americans. According to Dough Shulman, the commissioner of Internal Revenue Service, the IRS is controlling the universal rates for Mileage in order to reveal the actual cost of operating a car. He said that the agency, since 2005 has been monitoring the gas prices to guide the new rate so business establishments can do the midyear adjustments. The IRS also said that the rate for the computation of Deductible moving or medical expenses is changing from 19 cents to 27 cents per mile for the next six months of the year and that could be applied to people who are not entitled to reduction allowances. It is suggested that in order to maintain the 14 cents per mile, the federal government should submit legislation in changing the rate to provide services to charitable institutions. It is no longer questionable that the expense of operating a vehicle is continuously rising, since gas pr ... Source: www.newsindia-times.com --- 74 days ago

In recognition of recent gasoline price increases, the IRS made this special adjustment for the final months of 2008. The IRS normally updates the Mileage rates once a year in the fall for the next calendar year. "Rising gas prices are having a major impact on individual Americans. Given the increase in prices, the IRS is adjusting the standard Mileage rates to better reflect the real cost of operating an automobile," said IRS Commissioner Doug Shulman.

When Gruber first linked the TripLog/1040 UI by Stevens Creek , I wasn’t kind either. Bright colors, controls seemingly placed at random. It was the opposite of what designers strive for in our circles. A mess. Soon the Flickr page was a schoolyard of insults. And then something interesting happened. TripLog’s designer Steve Patt posted a comment amidst the bile to share the rationale behind his design. The many who chose not to listen to him won’t learn anything, but the rest of us may find fruit in Mr. Patt’s thoughtful explanation and twenty years of software experience. The first charge against TripLog is “clutter,” that there’s too much on the screen at once. We’ll get to clutter, but first we have to talk about speed. Patt explains that the #1 purpose of TripLog is to help people track their Deductible or reimbursable Mileage. If people can’t enter their trips very quickly, the friction of entering data will overpower the motivation to track. For customers, untracked data means miles that aren’t reimbursed. So speed is Patt’s top priority. What does speed have to do with clutter? I once saw Tufte give a workshop in Chicago where he introduced a valuable concept. He said information may be displayed adjacent in space or stacked in time . Take a book for example. If two dots are on the same spread, they are adjacent in space. All it takes to switch between them is movement of your eye. Compare that to a dot on one page stacked ...
Unless you're an accountant or a salesman, you may not have noticed the IRS just upped the Mileage deduction rate for privately owned vehicles to 58.5 cents per mile. Sounds like the perfect time to find out how far we could turn our daily driver into a government tax rebate on wheels. We've decided to use my daily driver as an example to see if we could, hypothetically of course, deduct as much as we're actually spending to drive it. Without further ado, here's our quick guide to deducting the cost of your car. First of all, the IRS lets you determine the amount of your Deductible car expense using one of two methods: the standard Mileage rate method or the actual expense method. To use the standard Mileage rate there's a variety of tests you need to meet, but they're all pretty straightforward — you must own or lease the car; the car must not be used for hire, for example as a taxi; you must not operate five or more cars at the same time, as in a fleet operation; etc. To use the actual expense method, you must determine what it actually costs to operate the car for business purposes. Include gas, oil, repairs, tires, insurance, registration fees, licenses, and depreciation (or lease payments) attributable to business miles driven. Because of the recent rate change, it's probably more relevant for us to talk about method, but the IRS suggests you should run the numbers both ways to see which offers the greater deduction. Since we ...
Those of you who use your car for business purposes can rejoice a little bit. The Internal Revenue Service increased the optional standard Mileage rates for the rest of the year because of rising gas prices. For every business mile driven from July 1 to December 31, 2008 taxpayers can use the rate of 58.5 cents to calculate Deductible costs, 8 cents more than the 50.5 than the first half of 2008. The IRS also increased the standard Deductible rates for medical/moving purposes from 19 to 27 cents. The agency doesn't normally change rates midyear, but decided it was necessary due to rising gas prices. This change means that federal government employees who use their own cars for government work may see an increase in their reimbursement rates since the U.S. General Services Administration announced they're reviewing privately owned vehicle reimbursement rates . It seems whenever I post about something related to gas prices I get a few comments about specific types of cars. So I thought I'd mention that 55 years ago today the first Chevrolet Corvette rolled off the assembly line in Flint, Michigan. The Environmental Protection Agency recently adjusted automobile gasoline mile per gallon estimates to take into account idling and other driver habits to make them more realistic. Fueleconomy.gov applied these new estimates to every automobile manufactured since 1985. I am curious to how many miles per gallon of gasoline the 1955 Corvette got. ...
Mileage reimbursement rates for federal employees using their own personal vehicle for government business could go up by 8 cents, if the government continues to use the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) standard rate for calculating the tax-Deductible costs for operating an automobile for business purposes. For those unfamiliar with the reimbursement program, federal employees are allowed to request the use of their own personal vehicle when there is no government transportation available or if it is more advantageous for the government through their management. When approved, the member fills out a travel reimbursement for the Mileage to be paid at the government approved rate. Even though the IRS has raised its standard rate, an increase for federal employees is not guaranteed. The General Services Administration (GSA) sets the Mileage reimbursement rate(s) for federal employees and uniformed members. Currently, the $.505/mile rate is at the ‘business travel’ (TDY) ceiling established by the IRS. Historically, the GSA has followed the IRS rate. By federal law, TDY Mileage rates are based on cost data collected by General Services Administration (GSA) and even then, the TDY Mileage rate can never be higher that the rate allowed by IRS. Normally, the IRS updates Mileage rates once in the fall for the next calendar year, however, due to the increasing fuel prices, the IRS is adjusting the standard Mileage rates to better reflect t ...
