AIA on cessation
Permalink  

A hairdresser was self employed for several years, renting a chair in a salon.

When lockdown hit, she gave up her rental chair, and refurbished a spare room in her house as a salon, starting working from there in Sept 2020.

She stopped hairdressing altogether in Aug 2021.

Should I claim all the salon conversion costs on the 2020/21 tax return, even though trading stopped less than a year later?

Would the assets such as the chairs and dryers etc just revert to her personally? As they're only worth around £1,500 used, they would fall within the CGT allowance?

Is there anything else I need to consider?

Thank you

You can declare AIA on the 20-21 tax return, but they will have to be accounted for as a balancing payment at market value on cessation in September 2021.

It isn't a capital gain, as you will have claimed tax relief for it in the 20-21 accounts.

Would need more details on the refurb but would imagine these come under capital costs and therefore not tax deductable.

Anything else to consider. A few. Some not all, claiming for a bit of paint and a shelf in one room could result in CGT when sell the house. Worth it? Need to repay seiss?
