What qualifies as embedded fixtures and fittings?
To put it simply, if a property was tipped upside down, everything remaining in the building could potentially qualify for tax relief when considering the function these items carry for the trade to operate.
Some items will be claimed through invoices by the accountant and some items will have been either inherent within the property at the time of acquisition or have been subsequently installed (which can make a critical difference to the value when selling the property).
If we were to complete a capital allowance claim on an office building, as an example, let’s look at a selection of some qualifying items.
Claimed through accounting routines:
-
Chairs
-
Desks
-
Computers
-
Printers
Qualifying items embedded within a commercial property:
-
Heating Systems
-
Plumbing Systems
-
Lifts
-
Radiators and Air Conditioning
