If you have been considering a new company car then this might be a great time of year to take action. In addition to some of the great deals that come available from car manufacturers, you might be able to combine those deals with the instant asset write-off, tax deductions, or other purchase and planning decisions as we move into the next financial year.

During tax time you may be able to utilise the Federal Government’s instant asset write-off. This is a fantastic opportunity for small business owners to purchase a new or used car, as you can claim an instant deduction of up to $30,000.
There are guidelines as to what can be claimed and it’s best to check in with your financial advisor or accountant on how to the Instant Asset Write-off can benefit you this financial year.
What deductions could I be making?
For any small business, the end of the financial year can be a great time for work-related purchases. Many business owners spend this time investing in assets to grow and expand their business, as well as maximise deductions. It’s time to look at equipment, office supplies or any additional items your company may need.
It’s important to spend time researching exactly what you can and can’t use as deductions for your company. The government has a lot of information online you can check to better understand what you can claim. Alternatively, your accountant or registered tax agent can assist you with this.
