I have a Ltd company and I've developed some software that I hope to be of commercial value in the future. I developed this in free time - no outside providers were used and the software is a product offering of the company.
Is there a way to record this as an asset given that to date no money has changed hands? How can I assess the book value of the software - do I use hours required to build, or income generated? Or does the software have no value?
Is there a tax advantage of recording the asset this way - e.g. could I use depreciation of the asset to reduce corporate tax liability in year 2?
