Tax filing and Cost Saving - Revenue Expenses vs Capital Expenditure?

Tax filing - Revenue Expenses vs Capital Expenditure?

When completing your annual Tax returns, always research what is a Revenue expenses ( Income/Corporation Tax deductible) vs Capital Expenses ( Capital Gains/Corp Tax deductible)

For example. typically, a new Gas Boiler, swapping out an older Model for a newer one of the same make, would result in a Revenue Expense, and is tax deductible, rather than Capital Expenditure, thus reducing your annual tax bill.

However, does, swapping out a Combi Boiler, for a heat pump, come under the category of Capital expenditure , rather than Revenue?. This,  due to the change of the design ,and Architecture of the heating system, and therefore, is only available as a tax deductible item, once the property is Sold.

Always check with the latest HMRC advise and your tax specialist before changing items like Gas Boilers for Heat Pumps, to ensure you receive the same tax benefits as a like for like replacement.
