Course Details
The capital allowances regime has possibly never been more complex than it is today, with a long list of potential allowances available, and a convoluted maze governing who qualifies for what and when. Recording and categorising capital expenditure correctly and choosing the best allowances for your business to claim, are the keys to maximising the benefits: both now and in the future.
Topics which are covered include:
- Overview of the capital allowances regime, what is available, and to who
- Categorising capital expenditure: identifying qualifying plant and machinery; is it a car or a van; is it really capital expenditure after all; other issues to consider
- Timing issues: hire purchase, extended credit, when is expenditure incurred for capital allowances purposes?
- Why the 130% super-deduction may still be relevant and what to look out for
- Allowances coming to an end soon: buy now, or pay the price later
- Choosing the best allowances for your business: the hierarchy
