In the Budget and Finance Act 2008, an accelerated capital allowances regime was introduced to encourage the use by companies of certain energy efficient equipment. Under this regime, a company could claim capital allowances of 100% of the expenditure incurred in the year the equipment is purchased. The Minister has now broadened the scope of this regime, to include refrigeration and cooling systems, electro-mechanical systems, catering and hospitality equipment. | | | | | | | | | | The above is intended as a general guide to the measures announced in Budget 2010.
