It seems a little strange to me, but what do I know.
In our case the per diem deduction may raise a flag.
I agree that the numbers look skewed towards the lower income range, but this is based on what the taxpayer reported in income, rather than what the Feds may believe should have been reported as income.
If you're not getting audited, you're not trying hard enough.
