Writing down allowances is a common type of capital allowance which you can use to deduct a percentage of your cars value from your profits each year. Most cars usually fall within the main rate pool, but this largely comes down to your cars CO2 emissions.
Taxpayers can choose to use either the standard mileage rate or actual expenses to compute their allowable business deduction. They may want to figure the deduction using both methods to see which provides a larger deduction.
