BENEFIT IN KIND

Light Commercial Vehicles attract Benefit in Kind (BIK) tax advantages.

- If your LCV is for unrestricted private use, your 'benefit in kind' liability is currently £3,150 x your marginal tax rate. So a 20% tax payer will pay £630 per year, whilst a 40% tax payer will pay £1,260 per year*

- If fuel is provided by your employer for private use, an additional BIK liability of £594 applies. So the tax payable for a 20% tax payer is £118.80 per year and £237.60 per year for a 40% tax payer*

- Employees who use an LCV solely for business purposes have no BIK tax liability whatsoever

LCV Tax Allowances and Rules for Sole Traders / Partnerships

Sole traders or partnerships are unaffected by the BIK changes to 'Van tax' introduced on 6th April 2007. Tax Allowances fall into three categories:

- Capital Allowances

- VAT Allowances

- Funding Allowances

Capital Allowances

All businesses qualify for an Annual Investment Allowance giving 100% tax relief on the first £100,000 spent on qualifying expenditure in each tax year. (From April 2012 this relief will be restricted to the first £25,000 of qualifying expenditure in each tax year).

VAT Allowances

LCVs qualify for a VAT reclaim subject to the business being VAT-registered and the vehicle being purchased outright or on a finance purchase plan.

Funding Allowances

VAT on hire plan rentals (Leasing or Contract Hire) is fully reclaimable.

VAT

VAT may be reclaimed by VAT-registered businesses which purchase a qualifying commercial vehicle, providing the vehicle is used for taxable purposes. For example, if a vehicle is used 50% for business and 50% for private purposes, then only 50% of the VAT paid can be recovered.
