Capital allowances are a key tax relief that allows UK businesses to deduct the cost of certain capital assets from their taxable profits. Understanding and maximizing these allowances can significantly reduce your corporation tax bill.

What Are Capital Allowances?
Capital allowances provide tax relief on qualifying capital expenditure such as machinery, equipment, and energy-efficient assets. Instead of expensing these costs immediately, businesses claim allowances over several years.
Types of Capital Allowances
- Annual Investment Allowance (AIA) – 100% deduction on qualifying expenditure up to a limit.
- Writing Down Allowance (WDA) – Annual percentage deduction for remaining expenditure.
