    A

    Explanation:

    Deductible expenses are cost that can be subtracted from an individual's income before tax is paid.

    Joe as a self employed will gets no deductions for his annual dues, initiation fees and personal meal with family. But a 50% deduction is allowed under law of the Internal Revenue Code for charges related to business use and are adequately supported by business records ... If he spends $4000 for charges related to business use

    There 50% * 4000

    =$2000 may be deducted
