    Hi,

    Here is my question, there is a purchase of motor vehicles amounts to $ 167,000 and $ 17,000 was paid by cash, and balance of $ 150,000 will be financed by hire purchased.

    For the hire purchases, assume no interest element. Repayment will be $ 2,500 per month total will be 60 months.

    The motor vehicles will be subject to 20% p.a. depreciation.

    Furthermore due to the tax regulation, the qualifying expenditure of assets will be restricted to $ 50,000.

    Following are the capital allowance and depreciation:

    Year 1 Year 2
    Capital allowance $ 18,000.00 $ 9,880.00

    Depreciation $ 33,400.00 $ 33,400.00

    (Qualifying expenditure first year will be $ 47,000.00, following year will be $ 1,200.00.)

    Would like to know how does the deferred was being calculated?

    Hi,

    You will need to calculate the carrying value of the motor vehicle using the cost and accumulated depreciation, and then the tax base using the capital allowances. Presumably the amounts are restricted given the limited qualifying expenditure.

    Thanks
