Section 148EA — Corporation Tax Act 2010: Determination of remaining residual value resulting from lessor's first additional expenditure

Determination of remaining residual value resulting from lessor's first additional expenditure 148EA 1 This section sets out how the remaining residual value of the plant or machinery resulting from the additional expenditure (“RRV”) is determined for the purposes of section 148E(4) if section 148E has not applied in relation to any previous additional expenditure incurred by the person in relation to the leased plant or machinery.

2 RRV depends on whether—

a the amount (“ARV”) which is expected to be the residual value of the plant or machinery at the time when the additional expenditure is incurred, exceeds b the amount (“CRV”) which at the commencement of the term of the lease is expected to be its residual value (or, if section 148DB applies, would have been expected to be that value had that value been estimated at that time).

3 If ARV exceeds CRV, RRV is the part of the excess that is a result of the additional expenditure.

4 Otherwise, RRV is nil.

5 For the meaning of “residual value”, see section 148J(2).
