Chapter 3 U.K. The credits and debits to be brought into account: general

Rules differing from generally accepted accounting practice U.K.

320 Credits and debits treated as relating to capital expenditure U.K.

[F1 (1) This section applies if—

(a) an amount for an accounting period in respect of a company's loan relationship relates to any of the matters in section 306A(1),

(b) generally accepted accounting practice allows the amount to be treated in the company's accounts as an amount recognised in determining the carrying value of an asset or liability, and

(c) any profit or loss for corporation tax purposes in relation to that asset or liability will not fall to be calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting practice.

(2) Despite that treatment, the amount is to be brought into account as a credit or debit for the purposes of this Part, for the accounting period for which it is recognised, in the same way as an amount which is brought into account as a credit or debit in determining the company's profit or loss for that period in accordance with generally accepted accounting practice.

(3) But subsection (2) does not apply to an amount which relates to an intangible fixed asset to which an election under section 730 (writing down at fixed rate: election for fixed-rate basis) applies.]

(b) so much of any amortisation or depreciation representing a writing-off of that value as is attributable to that debit.]
