in General accounting discussion
Hope someone can advise me on this.
Preparing acs for sole trader who is allowed a 10 perecent wear and tear allowance of turnover for tax purposes. I want to record this allowance in the accounts in the P+L ac as wear and tear allowance however I am a little baffled how to treat the other side of the transaction as it is not money that has been pysically spent. Its like a depreciation.
Any idea what the correct accounting treatment of this would be in the accounts please- cant think where to put.
Bit tired this morning
yawn...
thankyou. advice would be great.

    The only 10% wear and tear allowance i'm aware of relates to furnished letting income, do you mean this?

    This of course isn't trading income.
