A spreadsheet that walks US freelancers and 1099 contractors through 45 common business write-offs and estimates how much tax each one saves you.
What’s inside
• Deduction checklist: 45 Schedule C write-offs grouped by category (software, equipment, home office, travel, marketing, health and retirement), each with its Schedule C line and a plain-English rule of thumb
• Tax-savings estimator: enter your bracket, and it shows the approximate federal, state and self-employment tax each deduction saves
• Home office calculator: compares the simplified method ($5 per sq ft, up to 300 sq ft) with the regular method and picks the bigger one
• Receipt log with 300 rows, so you have proof if the IRS asks
Why it pays for itself
Finding one missed deduction, like a $1,200 software stack, typically saves more in tax than this file costs.
Who it’s for
Sole proprietors and single-member LLCs filing Schedule C.
What it isn’t
An educational planning tool, not tax advice. Savings are rough estimates. It covers federal rules only (states differ). Figures are for tax year 2026, checked October 2026. Confirm with a tax professional.
Works in Excel and Google Sheets. One-time payment, instant download.
