If it is with spouse/family it will be zero sum, no profit. Cost of business is equal to business income. No tax on no profit.

If audited I'd just say it was a spousal game created to show appreciation of the tasks we do for one another, such as laundry- here's $100.

Actually if audited I'd ask my CPA- but any way I wouldn't be paying tax.
