THE Treasurer delivered the Federal Budget on Tuesday 11 May 2021.
Temporary full expensing of depreciating assets will be extended for an additional 12 months until 30 June 2023, allowing businesses to deduct the full cost of eligible depreciable assets acquired from 6 October 2020 and first used or installed ready for use by 30 June 2023.
- Owners should be preparing detailed listing of depreciating assets as part of the tender process thus capturing more detail and potentially more write offs at the time of completion. A detailed analysis of variations that may have happened should pick up the rest of the write offs at completion of the project.
- There is opportunity to bring “forward” capital projects for refurbishments and upgrades.
- Any projects that are on the drawing board at this time (for investment not trading stock) and potentially due for completion by June 23 should capture the potential write off amounts for their feasibility calculations. The cash flow benefit will significantly increase as a result of the write offs.
