No, for several reasons...the only reason the Assoc fees are deductible is because they are actually paid as a tax to a tax authority....the penalty is not.

Just about anything that is a penalty of any type is NOT deductible. Getting a benefit from paying a penalty (doing a bad thing) is against public policy.

What does the term tax deductible means?

"Tax deductible" generally refers to an expense that can be deducted from your gross income when you file your tax return for the year in which the expense was incurred. For instance, if you spent $1200.00 on a college tuition and $275.00 on books and supplies for that course, you could deduct $1475.00 from your gross income for the year, thereby lowring your taxable income. If your tax bracket based on your income level was 15%, you would receive $1475 x 15% = $221.25 reduction in the income tax you pay for that year. Presuming that the tax was already deducted by your emplolyer (as would normally be the case), you would then receive a tax refund of $221.25 for that particular tax-deductible item.


Is credit card interest deductible?

Sadly interest is not tax deductible, especially for individual borrowers that don't have a business. Business owners *might* be able to argue their case if they absolutely had to borrow money in order to start a business, but interest on personal credit cannot be deducted... * note: that might depends on how lenient the IRS feels for a particular industry, or even what year it is. Typically, they want all the money they can collect.

If deductible being deducted from settlement value why do they still deduct salvage value?

A deductible is a product of first party vehicle coverage. You are able to choose the amount of that deductible. The higher your deductible, the lower your premium. Remember, insurance is a 'shared risk'; if you choose NO DEDUCTIBLE, your rate will be higher - if you choose a high deductible, your rate will be lower. The salvage value has no relationship to the deductible at all. You will owe your deductible whether your vehicle is repaired or considered a total loss. Your premimums are based on the deductible you chose, so at no time will your company waive that deductible. You are given the choice of the deductible amount when you purchase the policy. The salvage value is not technically deducted, it is actually added back IN, after the vehicle is sold at salvage market. YOU, as policyholder, have the option to 'retain the salvage', that is, retain the vehicle, in which case, the salvage value would REMAIN deducted, i.e., remain 'out of' the settlement value. Deductible: an option given at the time of policy inception; policyholder controls that amount by choosing ... Salvage value: the amount at which the vehicle sells at a salvage auction, unless the policyholder/owner wishes to retain the vehicle (i.e. 'retain the salvage')
