Business expense refund?



I have my own private practice. What percentage of my business expenses occurred throughout the year can I expect to get back?

It is not based on a percentage basis, but on the actual expenditure incurred in earning the income generated. The most however you can expect to benefit from is 40% for individuals and self-employed people and 28% for registered entities due to that being the rate of tax.
