Can any advise how treat the expenditure when computing corporation tax on the following second-hand freehold office building for £378,000. I understand the integral features are eligible to AIA for capital gains allowance but what do I need to do with the £378,000?
It’s taken from June 2011 exam q 2
“Purchase of a second-hand freehold office building for £378,000. This figure included £32,000 for a ventilation system and £46,000 for a lift. Both the ventilation system and the lift are integral to the office building. During May 2010 Molten-Metal plc spent a further £97,400 on repairs. The office building was not usable until these repairs were carried out, and this fact was represented by a reduced purchase price.”
