Salon Expense & Mileage Ledger | Schedule C Tax Spreadsheet (Google Sheets)

Form to sheet: log it in-the-moment on a Google Form on your phone, and the entry lands organized in your Google Sheet. No app, no re-typing. That's how every Ledger & Light tool works.

Your business costs and your business miles, logged from your phone into one sheet.

Booth rent is due on the first whether the book is full or not. Between rent days the costs arrive small and constant: a tube of color, a sleeve of foils, a box of gloves, the booking app, and the card reader's share of every service.

Log the color order or the new pair of shears in-the-moment, between clients, and it travels form to sheet into the category where it belongs.

Your Expense & Mileage Ledger keeps those costs and your business miles together in one sheet. Log an expense or a trip from your phone and it lands sorted and totaled on its own — and the miles you drive for beauty supply runs, education classes and trade shows, on-location bridal and event work, shear sharpening, and trips to the bank become a running deduction at the IRS standard mileage rate.

I designed this ledger myself — the category logic, the Schedule C mapping, the formulas, the dashboard, and the mobile forms are all my own work, built for how a salon professional really spends and drives.

Your instruction PDF is available immediately after purchase — no waiting, no shipping.

These tools help you stay organized. I'm not a CPA and nothing here is tax advice — your accountant has the final word.

The spreadsheet system, formulas, and tax categories are my own original design; AI tools assisted with the decorative illustrations.
