What is a Tax Depreciation Schedule?
A tax depreciation schedule is a detailed report that outlines the tax deductions available on an investment property due to the natural wear and tear of the building and its assets over time.
It helps property investors legally reduce their taxable income and maximise cash flow by claiming depreciation deductions each financial year.
Who Can Prepare a Tax Depreciation Schedule?
A depreciation schedule must be prepared by a qualified quantity surveyor, as recognised by the Australian Taxation Office (ATO).
MSQS is registered on the Tax Practitioners Board and is AIQS-certified with 9 years of industry experience.
We ensure that your report is accurate, ATO-compliant, and maximises your tax savings.
Depreciation Methods: Diminishing Value vs Prime Cost
The ATO allows two methods for calculating depreciation:
- Diminishing Value Method – Higher deductions in the early years, gradually decreasing over time.
Prime Cost Method – Equal annual deductions over the asset’s effective life.
We tailor the calculation method to best suit your financial strategy and investment goals.
Understanding Depreciation Categories: Division 40 & Division 43
-
Division 40 (Plant & Equipment Depreciation) – Covers removable assets such as appliances, carpets, blinds, air-conditioning units and hot water systems. These items depreciate at a higher rate and provide significant deductions.
-
Division 43 (Capital Works Depreciation) – Covers structural elements of the property, including walls, floors, roofing and fixed assets like kitchen cabinetry. This provides long-term depreciation benefits over 40 years.
How Much Can You Save?
- On average, property investors can claim $5,000 to $15,000 in tax deductions in the first year alone, depending on the property’s age, construction cost and assets.
- Our guarantee ensures that we return at least double our fee in deductions, or you get your money back.
