HOW TO SAVE ON TAXES II
Expense Account Deductions
Tightening of the exense account rules has been so much
in the headlines in recent months that you easily may have
forgotten that the strict, new limits on expense account de
ductions enacted by the 1962 tax law do not apply to the
year 1962. I repeat, the strict new limits do not apply to
money you, as a businessman, salesman or professional man
spent for business travel, entertainment or gifts in 1962, even
though It is now 1963 and you are now filing, your return
for 1962. Here's why this can mean many dollars of tax
savings for you.
Under the 1962 tax law, the Internal Revenue Service
has just adopted regulations which will bar any deduction
for business travel, entertainment and gifts unless the Items
are properly entered in diaries or other statements, properly
supported by receipts if in excess of a certain amount, etc.
But if you failed to keep these records for your 1962
expenses, you don't necessarily lose your deductions. You
are entitled to the benefit of the so-called "Cohan" rule
which was established by the courts and recognized by the
Treasury until Congress put an end to it for 1963 and on.
Under this Cohan rule, 11 you can prova that you look
a business trip say, as a traveling salesman with a reg
ular route or that you are in a business or prolesslon
in which business entertainment is common practice, you
are entitled lo deduct a reasonable estimate oi what you
must have spent. This holds despite your lack of apecliie
records lo prove the exact amounts you ipenl on various
items oi lravel and entertainment in 1962. In the absence
oi apecliie records, you may, oi course, have a hassle with
lhe Treasury over what is a reasonable estimate, but you
are not completely barred from any deduction as you will
be under the new law, applying lo 1963.
If you entertained customers, prospects or clients in 1962
to build goodwill without expecting any Immediate business
from them, you can deduct your entertainment outlays as
ordinary and necessary business expenses on your 1962
tax return. This holds, even though the 1962 tax law can bar
any deduction for similar expenses In 1963.
If you gave deductible business gifts In 1962, you can
deduct your full cost of these gifts as business expenses on
your 1962 return. This holds, even though the law will limit
your deductions to $25 year per donee for 1963 on.
If you paid dues, to belong to a social, golf or other ath
letic club in 1962, keep this pint In mind. For the year 1963
and on, you won't be able to deduct any part of the dues
for such club memberships as entertainment expenses un
less you use the club more than 50 per cent of the time for
business purposes. But this does not apply to 1962. Thus,
if only 25 per cent of your golf club visits during 1962 were
for unquestionable business contracts, you can deduct 25
per cent of the year's dues, even though you didn't use the
club more than 50 per cent of the time for business purposes.
If you look a business trip in 1962 and then wenl on a
vacation after finishing your business, you can deduct
your lull transportation costs lo and back home from the
business destination. For similar combined business-vacation
trips from 1963 on, you may lose the deduction for a
proportionate part oi your transportation costs ii th trip
lasts more than a week and 25 per cent or mora li lhe
time you spend on the trip is ior such personal activities
as vacationing.
If you, as an individual or firm, report your Income on
a 12-month fiscal year instead of a calendar year basis, you're
in for a double headache when it comes to your expense
account deductions.
Say that instead of reporting your income for the cal
endar year 1982, which runs from Jan. 1 though Dec. 31,
1962, you report on a fiscal year running from July I, 1962,
which runs from Jan. 1 through Dec. 31, 1962, your report
on a fiscal year running from July 1, 1962, to June 30, 1963,
Your outlays made or incurred for travel, entertainment and
business gifts during the period ending Dec. 31, 1H8Z, win
be deductible according to the old rules. Your outlays made
or incurred for the period after Dec. 31. 1962, may be de
ducted only If they meet the new, stricter tests of the 1982
tax law.

By ALVIN B. WEBB Jr.
Cape Canaveral - (UPD - In
cold mathematics, the man
power ratio of America's as
tronaut p-'uKidm is rather
poor. It takes only one man
to fly a spaceship, but more
than 30,000 to get him up and
back down.
At the moment, it can't be
helped. But for scientists and
engineers plotting the future
of man's role in space, it is a
major headache.
Manned spaceflights may
someday become an everyday
proposition but not as long
as a force of men equal to the
population of Hackensack,
.J., must be scattered to
earth's four corners for each
and every mission.
The problem now is that
landing techniques are a hit
vague. The smallness of the
early Mercury capsules dic
tated that the landing system
be lightweight and simple. A
parachute arrangement for a
touchdown" in the ocean was
selected.
In America's first three
manned orbital flights, it
worked admirably. But it was
roughly akin to using the en
tire power output of Grand
Coulee dam just to make sure
one lightbulb worked.
Of the roughly 30,000 men
working on each of the three
shots, the bulk was deployed
In the recovery forces cen
tered in the Atlantic Ocean
for John Glenn and Scott
Carpenter, In the Pacific for
waiter Schirra.
The forthcoming 34-hour
flight of astronaut L. Gordon
Cooper Jr. will place even
more stringent manpower de
mands on the ships, helicop
ters and airplanes In the re
covery force. Main recov
ery areas will be set un In
both the Atlantic and Pacific.
Scientists, who sometimes
indicate a disdain for money,
recognize the economic limita
tions to this sort of thing.
Anyway, as one space agency
official put it, "There s some
thing inelegant and unsophis
ticated about a parachute
landing."
One serious proposal is the
so-called "paragllder," an odd'
looking bat winged gadget
that looks strikingly similar
to an Idea Leonardo da Vinci
put on paper about the time
Columbus was discovering
America.
Some experts say that such
a wing, about 45 feet wide,
could be used with America's
upcoming two-man Gemini
space capsules to give me
astronauts enough control to
pick their return spot, per
haps on land instead of the
tricky sea.
West Texas has been pro
posed as a landing base, but
there are hints that politics
had more than a little to do
with this suggestion.
Da Vinci didn't pursue his
invention. Perhaps he knew
someting that scientists today
are lust finding out. Tha
modern paraglider is report
ed to have failed in four o
its first five "drop" tests at
Edwards Air Force Base,
Calif.
So It may be that, when the
first Gemini flights are mada
in 1964, the astronauts will
still be using the old and
faithful parachute. And tha
oceans again will be covered
with men waiting for their
return.
