Are the tickets or the auction items tax deductible?
Yes and No. If you receive a benefit as a result of making a contribution to a qualified organization, you can deduct only the amount of your contribution that is more than the value of the benefit you receive. Also see Contributions From Which You Benefit under Contributions You Cannot Deduct, later. If you pay more than fair market value to a qualified organization for merchandise, goods, or services, the amount you pay that is more than the value of the item can be a charitable contribution. For the excess amount to qualify, you must pay it with the intent to make a charitable contribution. In this instance, tickets are not deductible because the fair market value is higher than the ticket price. Items purchased at auction may be if the fair market value is below what you actually pay for them. Please discuss with a qualified tax accountant for further details.
