Not long ago, I came across this online gem that has been floating around for while. The spoof of the most well known scene of the movie "A Few Good Men" questions the whether lap dances at a strip club can be reimbursed as a business expense.
The video is entertaining, but a more substantive discussion on the issue can be found at Bloomberg.com. The article correctly identifies the questions as whether a lap dance is an ordinary and necessary business expense under Internal Revenue Code section 162 and whether the expenses can be adequately substantiated. The article generally concludes that a claimed lap dance deduction will not likely hold up on audit. However, it is a fact based inquiry that will depend on the circumstances.
