Q. What is the advantage of using the per diem method?
A. The per diem allowance can be used when traveling
away from home and allows the traveler freedom from collecting receipts.
The employee receives $30 per day (SPU rate) to use on food and
miscellaneous incidentals and only records the date of travel, business
purpose and employees who are traveling. If the employee expects
to spend more than the per diem amount on these items, it is to
their advantage to keep receipts and be reimbursed for actual expenses.
