Part 2

Plant and machinery allowances
Chapter 1

Introduction

Use for other purposes of plant or machinery previously used for long funding leasing
13A
1
This section applies if a person who has been using plant or machinery for the purpose of leasing it under a long funding lease (see Chapter 6A)—
a
ceases to use the plant or machinery for that purpose without ceasing to use it for the purposes of a qualifying activity carried on by him, and
b
on the date of the cessation, owns the plant or machinery as a result of having incurred capital expenditure on its provision for the purposes of the qualifying activity.
2
The person is to be treated—
a
as having incurred capital expenditure (“notional expenditure”) on the provision of the plant or machinery for the purposes of the qualifying activity on the day after the cessation,
b
as owning the plant or machinery as a result of having incurred that expenditure, and
c
as if the plant or machinery on and after that day were different plant or machinery from the plant or machinery before that day.
3
The amount of the notional expenditure is an amount equal to the termination amount, determined in accordance with section 70YG, in the case of the long funding lease under which the plant or machinery was last leased before the cessation.
