Whats a company car - laptop - and phone really worth ????
I am considering a job change currently I have a car-phone-aircard-and laptop that the compay pays for, also included is a hotel card and gas credit card.....I am looking at a job that might not include the perks, so I am looking for a $$$$ figure to add to salary
any of you guys that have them can you place a salary value on a company car, a company paid phone and a lap top with aircard service ?
along with car add the fact you have a fuel card and a hotel card for trips and such......I think there really is a difference if you have to lay out the monies and then have to be reimbursed 2-3 weeks later...
what I am really asking here is if you make $ X with a car, laptop, phone, expense account and don't have to lay out any funds....
would it be the same as a job at $ X + ????? ( this is the amount I am trying to figure out ) for having to use your own vehicle, getting reimbursed for fuel and a phone - aircard, and having to purchase your own laptop ??
thank you

I hope the "guys" can, because the IRS sure does. Ever heard of "imputed income?" Basically, any personal use of these perks translates into taxable income for you.
