    Yes, it is a percentage but only if you are self employed.

    Thank you.

     

    Can you be more specific. Percentage of what exactly?

    That’s the idea. Monitor your usage over what you would consider usual usage over a 3-4 month period. Use that percentage to apply to your yearly cost when you do your taxes.
