Non deductible meal and entertainment expenses

Program(s) affected: T2 Document created: April 14, 2004 Tax year(s): 2004 Document last modified: May 25, 2004 Version(s): Problem status: Fixed

Why is the amount reported on line 28 of form CO-17.A.1 respecting non deductible meal and entertainment expenses not matching the amount I calculated manually?

This problem, found in version 7.20, only occurs in a situation where there is a limitation of the amount of deductible meal and entertainment expenses due to the 1% cap on gross income calculated according to the number of days in the fiscal period that come after June 12, 2003. In such a case, DT Max erroneously reports the deductible expenses on line 28 of form CO-17.A.1 instead of the non deductible expenses.

As a workaround, select the option CO-17.A.1 in the keyword Override, enter 128 in the keyword FIELD-DATA, then enter the amount of non deductible meal and entertainment expenses.

This problem is fixed in Internet version 7.25.
