Schedule E, Rental Partnership - Unreimbursed Partnership Expense
Quick question for a tax professional, I've read extensively and started to draft a modification for our partnership operating agreement - but want to verify that this method works.
Since we use our personal vehicles for doing rental activities, and have racked up quite a bit of mileage - there is a section in Schedule E instructions about unreimbursed partnership expense (https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/i1040se.pdf). Is there any issue with just doing standard mileage deduction ($0.575/mile) as unreimbursed partnership expense? We have extremely detailed mileage logs (we keep booklets in our car).
I should also note that we do not want to do actual cash reimbursements or have mileage credited towards capital accounts, etc. We want to do mileage this way if we can.
I'm planning on telling my accountant on doing it this year - but if there is an issue I hate to spend a bunch of money having him research it if not familiar.
