Take advantage of the instant asset write-off scheme before it’s too late
The instant asset write-off program has been a popular scheme for SMEs, allowing for costs of assets up to a certain amount, to be written off immediately, rather than depreciating them over time.
For businesses still looking to take advantage of the program, supply chain issues will need to be taken into account, as they may impact the ability to access the scheme before the deadline. The asset needs to be installed and ready for use by June 30 2023, to claim the write-off.
From July 1, 2023, small business entities with an aggregated turnover below $10 million will have to depreciate any assets they purchase worth more than $1,000 over the effective life of the asset. With depreciation comes additional red tape and more onerous rules, which bring added layers of complexity for business owners.
