What is an expense?
Before you can start entering things into any accounting system, such as QuickBooks, you will need to know what you can and cannot enter.
Ordinary and Necessary
The IRS has decided that a business expense needs to be ordinary or necessary.
That is a very broad definition of a business expense.

Mobile Notary workers would be able to expense the business use of the car.
They would use a mileage log, actual expenses with a percentage of personal use, or actual expenses 100% business use; depending.

a)Standard Mileage means using a log to record your mileage, or Actual Expenses using receipts.
β)If you used Standard Mileage (recording it in a log), then you have the option of switching back and forth for whichever gives you the higher deduction.
γ)If you took Actual Expenses, then you have to continue using receipts the entire time this car is in the service of that business.
Lawyers would expense the bar association dues and the continuing education they are required by law to take.
