Mileage tracker tax deduction spreadsheet, built to stop the one mistake every mileage log makes: you write down the drive out and forget the drive back.
So this one asks for the one-way distance and a tick box. Drove there and back? Tick it. The sheet doubles the miles for you, every time, without you having to remember. You type in one tab and everything else fills itself in — your business miles and your deduction add themselves up as you go, on the front page and broken out month by month. No reconstructing a year of driving from calendar entries the week before a deadline.
WHAT’S INSIDE — 3 TABS
- ✓ Trips — 500 rows, with dropdowns for round trip and for category (Business, Personal, Medical, Charity). Only Business counts toward the deduction, so you can keep one honest log of everything you drive.
- ✓ Monthly Summary — business miles, deduction value, all miles and trip count for every month, plus a year total.
- ✓ Read Me First — your rate, your tax year, and the two numbers you actually want: business miles and what they are worth.
KEY FEATURES ✓ Round-trip doubling, done by the sheet rather than by you. ✓ Locked formulas. Grey cells are protected, yellow cells are yours, and no password is set. ✓ Dropdowns for category and round trip, so a year of rows stays consistent. ✓ No rate is printed in the file. The standard rate changes most years and has been revised mid-year before, so it is a cell you set, with a pointer to irs.gov. A wrong rate in a tax tool is worse than no rate at all. ✓ 4-page quickstart PDF included.
PERFECT FOR self-employed drivers, 1099 contractors, rideshare and delivery drivers, real estate agents, mobile trades, and anyone claiming vehicle miles.
PLEASE NOTE. Digital download; nothing is shipped. Personal and internal business use, no resale. A record-keeping tool, not tax advice — which trips qualify, and whether the standard rate or actual expenses suits you better, is a question for your accountant.
The listing images use demonstration names and numbers. The download is the reusable template, with entry rows ready for your own work.
