Fixed Asset Register

Overview

Every business that buys equipment, vehicles, fixtures or property needs two sets of numbers for it. The accounts need depreciation – the cost spread over the asset's useful life – and a fixed assets note. The tax return ignores depreciation and gives capital allowances instead, under HMRC's own rules. This workbook does both from one register. You record each asset once; it works out the depreciation charge for the year, profit or loss on anything sold, a ready-made accounts note by category, and a full capital allowances computation including the Annual Investment Allowance, full expensing, first-year allowances, the main and special rate pools and balancing adjustments.
