Answer 1

Answer:

Subscription to the "Journal of Taxation" for a tax attorney

Explanation:

Dues and subscriptions are professional expenses. They are tax-deductible subject to the 2% Adjusted Gross Income.

Professional subscriptions refer to any fees that the person may have to pay to get his business or profession registered with a "governing body" for which a license is required.

One cannot claim tax back on professional fees and subscriptions.

Subscription to the "Journal of Taxation" for a tax attorney is deductible as dues, subscriptions, or publications.
