🏭 Capital Allowances Calculator 2026/27

Capital Allowances Calculator

Estimate the tax relief on a business asset purchase in 2026/27 — Annual Investment Allowance, Full Expensing, the new 40% first-year allowance and writing-down allowances. A rough indicator, not a substitute for a capital allowances review.

🏭 Capital Allowances Relief

ℹ️ Key 2026/27 rates: AIA £1m at 100%; Full Expensing 100% (companies, new main-rate assets); main-pool WDA 14% (reduced from 18% on 1 April 2026); special-rate WDA 6%; SBA 3%. This tool gives a simplified first-year estimate only.
⚠️ Important Disclaimer — Please Read CarefullyThis calculator gives a simplified first-year estimate only and is not tax advice. Capital allowances are highly fact-specific: the correct treatment depends on how each asset is classified (main rate, special rate, integral feature, structure), whether full expensing, AIA, the 40% first-year allowance or writing-down allowances apply, AIA sharing across groups, accounting-period timing, and disposals. Embedded fixtures in property are commonly under-claimed and need a specialist survey. Rates shown are for 2026/27 based on information available at the time of publication and may since have changed. The Tax Lead Limited accepts no liability for any loss arising from use of this calculator. Always seek professional advice before making any decisions.

📋 What Qualifies — and What's Often Missed

✓Plant, machinery, equipment, IT and commercial vehicles
✓Integral features in a building — heating, AC, lighting, electrics, lifts
✓Embedded fixtures in a commercial property purchase — frequently unclaimed
✗Land and the building structure itself (SBA at 3% instead)
✗Cars (use writing-down allowances by CO2, or 100% FYA for new electric)
💡 Why a review matters: When you buy or refurbish commercial property, a large share of the price can be embedded fixtures qualifying for allowances. These are routinely missed in standard accounts — a specialist survey can unlock relief years after the purchase.
