Calculate the balancing adjustment for the accounting period ended 31 March 2023 6. Preparing the Capital Allowance Computation It is essential to follow a set format in dealing with the additions and disposals of assets in the
accounting period in the preparation of the capital allowance computation for plant and machinery:
1.
List any tax written down values (unrelieved expenditure) on the pools and any non-pool assets
at the start of the accounting period as given within the question.
2.
List expenditure qualifying for AIA, in order, firstly special rate pool and then main pool.
3.
Add any expenditure in excess of the AIA limit to the relevant pool.
4.
Add to relevant pool (main or special rate) the cost of any cars qualifying for WDA ie cars with
CO2 emissions.
5.
Deduct sale proceeds, to a maximum of original cost, of assets sold during the accounting
period from the relevant pool balance.
6.
Deduct sale proceeds, to a maximum of original cost from the tax WDV of any non-pool assets
and compute the relevant balancing adjustment.
7.
Compute available WDA’s on the TWDV’s computed and deduct therefrom.
8.
List any new electric zero emission cars purchased during the accounting period and claim the
available 100% FYA.
