I came across a number of problems which refer that issue costs for loan/ share issue accounted for x percent of gross finance. I want to ask whether issue costs for loan/ shares are tax -deductible expenses? Whether these cost are directly deducted from the finance acquired or treated as expenses in the period?
Ask the Tutor ACCA AFM
issue cost for share issue and bond issue
Every past exam question that I can remember has specifically stated whether they are tax allowable or not (and usually the question says they are not tax allowable). If a question does not make it clear then assume either way but (as always in Paper AFM) state your assumption - you then will get the marks :-)
