Deductions & Expenses

Factoring Fee Records

Factoring affects income tracking and fee records, so statements should be saved with settlement detail.

Last reviewed: 2026-05-25 Reviewed against current official sources by the TruckTaxHub editorial team General information; review annually

Statement details

  • Invoice face amount
  • Advance amount
  • Factoring fee
  • Reserve held or released
  • Chargebacks

Bookkeeping issue

Gross income, deposits, and factoring fees may need to be recorded separately so profit is not overstated or understated.

Review note

Trucking expenses may be deductible when properly documented and ordinary and necessary for the business. The final treatment depends on facts and current tax rules.

Documents to send the bookkeeper

  • Monthly factoring statements
  • Reserve release detail
  • Chargeback notices
  • Settlement statements tied to factored invoices
  • Bank deposits from the factor

Do not classify from deposits alone

A deposit from a factor may combine invoice advances, reserve releases, or adjustments. Keep the statement detail so the bookkeeper can separate income, fees, and receivable activity before the tax preparer reviews it.
