I had tkr in March 2009 on my left knee. Everything went terrific. My range of motion was great, I did good in PT, I was a star patient according to my therapist - did everything much sooner than most supposedly. Then in Aug. 2010, my darn knee started hurting.
Costs you can Deduct or Capitalize. Business start-up and organizational costs are generally capital expenditures, which are funds used to acquire assets such as furniture, buildings and machinery. There are certain start-up costs that you can elect to either deduct or capitalize.
However, you can elect to deduct up to $5,000 of business start-up and $5,000 of organizational costs paid or incurred after October 22, 2004. The $5,000 deduction is reduced by the amount your total start-up or organizational costs exceed $50,000. Any remaining costs must be amortized.
