Who can claim Capital Allowances?
Any UK businesses can claim capital allowances, whether that be a Sole Trader, Partnership or Limited Company. A claim for capital allowances is made in the accounting period in which the expenditure is incurred and is deducted from taxable profits, saving tax at either 20% / 40% / 45% for sole traders and partnerships or at 19% for limited companies.
What expenditure qualifies for Capital Allowances?
Various expenditure can qualify for capital allowances, such as:
- Plant and Machinery (including alterations to a building to house plant and machinery)
- Fixtures and Fittings – fire alarms, CCTV, fitted kitchens and bathroom suites
- Integral Features – air-conditioning systems, hot and cold water systems, electrical and lighting systems
- Construction/renovation of non-residential buildings
How can we help?
Determining what assets qualify for what allowances can often be extremely complex, especially when multiple assets have been purchased or large refurbishment works have been undertaken. Here at Armstrong Watson we can help you maximise the total allowances available to claim on expenditure incurred by undertaking a capital allowances review.
With extensive knowledge and experience of helping clients, our tax consultancy team can assist you in identifying which expenditure will qualify for which allowances and ensure all allowances are included in the claim to maximise any tax saving.
