P. residence into business office.

[gman]

Taxpayer has moved out of mobil home that was the principal residence. Has
moved in with daughter. Taxpayer has a cleaning business and has begun
to store all equipment and supplies in mobil home. Has left the phone and
utilities all on, and recieves all invoices and business information there.

Wants to know if it is possible to take all operating expenses of the mobil home
as business now. Any suggestions?

The mobile home is no longer his residence. It is now his office. You can depreciate it and take all expenses related to maintaining it as an office/warehouse.
