Employees are supposed to log those personal calls and report them to their business office but Indianapolis CPA Gino Johnson with Peachin, Schwartz and Weingardt says that happens rarely. IRS wants a new rule to help it collect uncollected cell phone taxes. it could cost some users effectively over a year it would cost you an extra $50 in taxes.
