Signage is an important asset for any business, letting customers know who you are and what you do.
Signage, depending on the expenditure, can be either an operating (tax-deductible) expense or a depreciable asset in which case it can be claimed under the instant asset write off scheme.
The ATO has recently extended the instant asset write-off scheme until June 30th 2022 and the threshold amount for each asset is now $150,000. The instant asset write-off helps to improve cash flow for businesses by bringing forward tax deductions for eligible expenditure.
To be eligible for the write-off in this financial year (June 2022), the asset must be first used or installed ready for use before June 30th. If you were thinking of upgrading your signage, now is the time!
