Home Office Reimbursement

Estimate a monthly accountable-plan reimbursement from rent or ownership costs, allocated by business-use percentage.

Enter the percentage of your home used regularly and exclusively for business.
Square footage used exclusively for business.
Total square footage of the home.
Rent or own Whether you rent or own determines which expense fields apply.

Rental expenses

If Annual, enter the full-year total; the calculator divides by 12 before applying your home office percentage.

Homeownership expenses

If Annual, enter the full-year amount; ÷12 is used for the monthly rate.

If Annual, enter the full-year amount; ÷12 is used for the monthly rate.

Each expense is converted to a monthly rate, then your business-use percentage is applied. Direct office repairs are allocated 100%.

Important disclaimers

  • This calculator is provided for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute tax, legal, accounting, or financial advice.
  • Results are estimates based solely on the information entered and assumptions used by the calculator. Actual reimbursements depend on your written accountable plan, substantiation, and how expenses are actually paid.
  • This tool estimates a monthly reimbursement allocation. It is not a Form 8829 home office deduction calculation.
  • Direct office repairs are allocated 100% to the office. Indirect costs are multiplied by your business-use percentage after converting annual inputs to a monthly rate.

Key Notes

  • Use a written accountable plan and keep receipts so reimbursements stay nontaxable when the rules are met.
  • This is an allocation estimate, not a home office deduction on Form 8829.
  • Confirm the policy and these figures with a qualified tax advisor before reimbursing.
