What Is It?
A Capital Allowance is a tax deductible allowance available to a company on the purchase of qualifying assets.
Who is it for?
Companies in the UK. It may be claimed on most assets purchased for use in the business, ranging from equipment and research costs, to expenses for building renovations.
How does it work?
You can deduct some or all of the value of the qualifying assets from your profits before you pay tax.
The annual investment allowance which provides 100% tax deduction on qualifying asset on spending up to £1 million each year has been extended by the Government until 1 January 2022.
This provides an excellent opportunity to utilise 100% tax deduction on qualifying asset purchases, saving corporate tax for the company.
