Small businesses can currently claim a full deduction in their tax return for depreciable assets purchased and installed that cost less than $20,000 up to 30 June 2019.

The Federal Government announced a new proposal on 29 January 2019 to increase the instant asset write-off threshold from $20,000 to $25,000 for new depreciable asset purchases from 29 January 2019 to 30 June 2020.

Points to note:

  • • The announced increase to the threshold is a proposal and not yet law.
  • • The instant asset write-off threshold is GST exclusive.
