Subject:Per Diem Question From:Richard Lewis <tech44writer -at- yahoo -dot- com> To:techwr-l -at- lists -dot- techwr-l -dot- com Date:Tue, 26 Sep 2006 13:20:55 -0700 (PDT)
To all:
For a remote w2 contract job in which per diem would come out of the hourly rate, is it always best to get the most per diem possible?
I have been running comparisons of per diem vs no per diem (just itemized expenses) on various length hypothetical remote contract jobs, and it appears that it is always best (take home pay wise) to get max per diem. However, my hypothetical cases have not been exhaustive.
Thanks,
Richard Lewis
