The company has more places to put their new products. According to the research of the storage price, each storage rack is not exceeding RM2,000.   Therefore,  for the tax purpose, the company is able to claim small value assets as the cost of storage rack is not exceeding RM2,000 each. By referring to Income Tax Act 2021, each business is eligible to claim a full deduction of capital allowance in the year of purchase and it is subject to an aggregate limit of RM20,000 per year.  Moreover, AIS is recommended to purchase a new vehicle such as a van via loan for the purpose of delivering their products to their customers. The vehicle will be more helpful to deliver their product in prompt and without delay. As a result, the service provided will increase the reputation of the company. In the tax perspective, if AIS purchases a van via loan, the interest expenses incurred are subject to tax deduction and it is also available to claim capital allowance. A van is classified as a commercial vehicle and it is qualified for capital allowance with a condition that the expenditure must be incurred on or after the commencement date of the business. If such expenditure incurred prior to the commencement of the business, it is not subject to tax deduction. For the capital allowance, it is available for initial allowance in the first year of purchasing the vehicle and annual allowance for each year of assessment. For example, AIS purchased a van via loan of 12% with the cost of RM200,000, it is available for 20% of initial allowance and 20% of annual allowance for the year of assessment. At the same time, it is also eligible for tax deduction on the interest incurred on loan. Therefore, the total claim is the total amount of capital allowance claim and the interest incur.
