Note - Covid 19 $5000 Low Value Asset Write-off Threshold Ends 16th March

Kim from Epiphany Accounting Solutions

The 12 month Inland Revenue Covid 19 assistance of being able to expense any asset purchase below $5000 is coming to an end. This option ends on the 16th of March 2021. This was a one-time/year deal.

The 12 month Inland Revenue Covid 19 assistance of being able to expense any asset purchase below $5000 is coming to an end. This option ends on the 16th of March 2021. This was a one-time/year deal.

If you are thinking about buying an asset for your company or sole trader organisation then it may be worth getting your purchase in before this date so that it can be immediately expensed rather than held as an asset and depreciated over a number of years. Thereby reducing this year's income tax.

I.e. New Asset $4500 - claim GST of $586.96, Net Asset Expensed $3913.04 = Reduction of Income Tax at the company rate of 28% =$1095.65

From the 17th of March the new rate of $1000 applies to the low-value asset write-off threshold.

But remember this only works out financially if it was actually an asset that you needed to buy in the coming months. I can't tell you the number of times I have heard of people spending money on things they did not really need in order to reduce their tax. It is a misunderstanding that is all too common.

Approximately 35% of our population suffer from varicose veins. Varicose veins can lead to leg aching, tiredness, heaviness. Often the long-term problems of swelling, itchiness, leg cramps and ulcers are not recognized as being associated with veins. 

Modern-day treatment is usually non-surgical (injections or laser), and greatly improves a varicose vein sufferer’s quality of life.

Most health insurance companies cover varicose vein treatment but not cosmetic (thread vein) treatment.

At Vein & Laser Dr Elisabeth De Felice will see you for each of your appointments to ensure continuity of care.

GEMS AND PEARLS

Kenneth from Northcote Point

Ther's more to life than cash and cars
Spending big with credit cards.


Mobile phones, the latest fashions,
Keeping up with societies fashions.

Ther's more to life than cash and cars
Spending big with credit cards.


Mobile phones, the latest fashions,
Keeping up with societies fashions.


Joy abounds...if you look around
Peoples faces, sights...and sounds!


Breathe the air, STARE at the clouds
Find a quiet spot to SCREEEAAAMM aloud!


Wrap your arms around a tree
Smell the flowers, for you are free.


Stay up late to watch the moon
In all her grace at midnights noon.


Take some bread, a glass of wine
Some tangy cheese, a taste devine.


We strive for happiness in material things,
Yet stress and anger are all they bring.


We look inside ourselves
And think we'll be happy with gems and pearls.


We came to earth with nothing but love
And when we leave to soar above
We'll take not with us gems and pearls....
But, hopefully, wisdom and love to the netherworld....
