CAPITAL ALLOWANCES UK

Capital allowances are expenditures that can be claimed by businesses against their taxable profit. They can be claimed on most assets purchased by the business, and fall under different qualifications, which determine the value that can be claimed back on them. While some of the expenditures can be deducted from the taxes in the year in which they were made, others are spread over multiple years. The capital allowance claim should be included in the tax return, which is submitted to HM Revenue & Customs. About Contact us Calculate what you could be entitled to
