Limited Company - Can i expense a MacBook Pro?

[1manshow]

On a side note your 'developer colleague' is an idiot.... Or more likely talking rubbish to sound like a billy big bollox.

Well I heard him arguing with his accountant over it - so I don't think he is talking rubbish. The idiot part I agree with.

I was more leaning to someone who uses it quite significantly for personal use (e.g. when they finish work, they use it as their primary laptop for streaming porn and playing WoW).

Doesn't matter.

He's probably arguing with the accountant as the accountant is saying "if it is actually generating business, and you can prove it, you can claim it as a personal expense but not a business expense as it's business entertaining, which has no VAT or CT relief"

Sounds like he has a drinking problem though.

If staying away in hotels for several nights a week, with an expense bill of £10k p.a. including beer (that's easy enough to do) is fine as an expense.
