does everyone knock off 40p a mile for tax purposes or a % of the vehicle usage?
looking into gettin a van and have been charging the 40 p a mile but thinking of changing it to a % on the van as it will be mainly for work
any feedback
I do mine on % of total running costs.
Not saying it's the best way. It's just the way I've always done it.
My van is my only vehicle. I offset 85% of total running costs against the business as I do have some private use out of it. This % also applies to loan interest that relates to the van and the same % of the capital allowance.
If I had a private car, it would be 100%.
