Caravan Park Depreciation Schedules
Maximise the tax deductions available on your caravan park or holiday park with a professionally prepared depreciation schedule, tailored to the unique mix of buildings, infrastructure and assets.
What is a Caravan Park Depreciation Schedule?
A caravan park depreciation schedule outlines the available tax deductions for buildings, assets and site improvements, in accordance with the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (ITAA 1997).
These deductions are generally claimed under:
Division 43 – Capital Works (buildings and structural improvements)
Division 40 – Plant & Equipment (removable and mechanical assets)
Caravan parks typically include a wide range of depreciable components, making a professionally prepared schedule particularly valuable.
