Dues and Subsciprtions

Most people think about magazine subscriptions when they see this category. But this is not what this necessarily means. It includes any dues you pay to belong to an organization such as the Better Business Bureau, Chamber of Commerce or other type of business association. For apartment rentals, it would include apartment association dues or other real estate associations. Some dues may be a one time charge such as dues to Costco or may be a recurring annual or monthly charge.
