I own an S-Corp with my wife. We have a single local part-time employee that generally works from home (plus our kids working a few hours here and there).
I recently started going to a Crossfit gym just down the street from my office. I'm wondering how it will work if I run this expense through the business. Would this be considered a fringe benefit, or would I need to offer it to our employee as well - who wouldn't take advantage of it since she lives 30 miles away.
I read through some IRS documents, and it looks like it would be considered taxable income. I pay myself a fairly modest W-2 salary as any profits are just being reinvested in the business. So, adding $1,500 a year to my taxable income wouldn't be a big deal and if that also added a $1,500 deduction it seems like it would basically balance out. Am I looking at this the right way or is there something I'm missing?
