Small Business: Year-end Tax Planning Tips


Consider Buying Assets Before the End of the Year

If you have been considering purchasing assets for your business, we would recommend that you purchase these assets before the end of the year, instead of waiting until next year.

If you purchase these assets in December, you will be entitled to a half-year tax depreciation in the current year and a full-year tax depreciation in the next year. But if you waited until January, you would only be entitled to a half-year tax depreciation in the next year and a full-year tax depreciation in the following year.

You should also be aware that the assets have to be available-for-use to qualify for the half-year tax depreciation in the year of purchase.
