• Date of expenditure – enter the date of the expenditure, which must be within the accounting period and be within 1/4/2021 and 31/3/2023.

• Balancing charge – on the disposal of an asset on which special rate allowances was previously claimed results in a balancing charge which is 50% of the proceeds.
