The hourly rate determined by the ATO for deducting home office expenses has been increased from 34c to 45c per hour for individual taxpayers, effective 1 July 2014.
According to PS LA 2001/6 (para 2 and 12), individual taxpayers who claim deductions for work or business related home office running expenses comprising electricity, gas and decline in value of office furniture may claim either a deduction for the actual expenses incurred or a deduction calculated at the rate of 45 cents per hour (which was increased from 34 cents per hour on 1 July 2014). Taxpayers should be reminded that a deduction would be allowable only where additional running costs are incurred because of their income producing activities.
