This means that every time you take out a client for dinner and drinks, you get to write off half of the bill.\n\nHowever, you can not go around deducting meals indiscriminately. The IRS has guidelines and tests that help you correctly deduct your meals. These include:\n\nConsidering the business context, the meal must not be lavish or extravagant.\n\nThe taxpayer or an employee of the taxpayer is present at the meal.\n\nThe expense must be an ordinary and necessary expense, under the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) Section 162(a), which is incurred or paid to carry on a trade or business.\n\nFood and beverages must be purchased separately from entertainment in the case that the entertainment activity provides food and beverages.",
