Purchasing a lap top

Purchasing a lap top

Didn't find your answer?

I have a client who is a sub-contractor.

He currently uses a Pc from home which he has claimed 100% capital allowances.

Can you see any problem with him now purchasing a lap top to use in his business, and claiming 100% allowances?

Thanks for your help

Potential challenge
I don't see a huge problem, although you might wake up HMIT to the possibility of private use of both desktop and laptop. That is not to say that claiming more than 100% combined is unreasonable.

It would have made sense to accept some private use on the desktop and claim close to (if not actually) 100% of the laptop. You might have a fight saying the desktop is 100% as well, unless he has another PC at home for personal use? Then maybe the business desktop IS 100%, and the laptop is perhaps 95%?
