   For accounting purposes, personal expense is separate for business purposes. Therefore, you cannot deduct personal cash outs against your business or vice versa.

   If your office is part of your house, then you may find it hard to prove it to the IRS—for more advice, see a CPA or a tax expert.

   Only if you work at home in this office because you own a business or because your employer requires you to work at home. There are other requirements too, so check these out…separate door, clients in the office, etc.
