Rob keeps track of his mileage and drives mostly for work. During this year, he has driven 34,000 km for work and only 6,000 km for personal use. His employer has provided him with a car - a 4X4 Jeep. The company leased his 4×4 from Jeep on January 1, 2022, for $900 per month, plus HST for a total of $1017 for an annual total of $12,204 which excludes insurance of $1,200. The manufacturer's suggested list price for the vehicle was $45,000. The operating cost for the year paid directly by the employer was $5,000 including GST but excluding parking. Rob reimbursed his employer 5 cents for every kilometer of personal use. Assume the rate per km is 29 cents for operating costs.
The company does not give him an office. Thus, he has partitioned a workspace in his home for his office. The office space takes up about 20% of the home and is used for no other purpose, except when his dog Max gets into it and makes a mess.
The costs associated with his office are as follows:
Gas and hydro $4,000
Cell phone service-monthly fee 5,000
Mortgage interest 6,000
Long-distance calls for work 1,000
Realty taxes 3,200
Computer equipment needed for work 2,500
Repairs and maintenance 3,000
Contents and property insurance 100
Supplies for the office 400
Under Rob's contract of employment, he is required to maintain his own office
