Currently, if cell phones are provided to employees the business must require logs of personal v. business use, and the personal-use portion is considered to be taxable income. That recordkeeping requirement is totally impractical, and even Congress agrees.
Expect that recordkeeping requirement to be repealed by Congress very shortly.

Ron Mueller is one of the nation’s leading authorities on small and home-business tax law, and he has an incredible gift for being able to decipher complicated IRS Tax Code, Government Legislation and Federal Tax Court Rulings, and then put it all into “Plain English” that the average person can easily understand and quickly put to use.
