Revenue Expenditures Expenditures for ordinary repairs,
maintenance, fuel, insurance or other items needed to maintain and use
buildings, and plant and equipment They go to expense accounts and reduce
the income of the period in which they
incurred, because the benefits from theseexpenditures do not last beyond thatperiod

asset, which become an integral part of the asset, should be depreciated over itsremaining useful life, although in practicethe cost of improvement may be added tothe gross block of the asset and

Repairs Ordinary repairs are expenditures incurred
to maintain assets in good workingcondition
Periodic replacements of fused bulbs andworn-out car tyres, oiling and cleaning of equipment, and painting of buildings aretreated as ordinary repairs since theseexpenditures are fairly regular and theybenefit the year in which they are incurred

Repairs Major repairs are different as they benefit
a number of periods E.g. the benefit of relining a steel furnace

A car bought at a cost of Rs. 2,50,000 two yearsago undergoes some major repairs at a cost of Rs. 40,000
The useful life of the car at the time of thepurchase was estimated at five years, and theresidual value at Rs. 25,000
Depreciation is on the straight-line basis
As a result of the repairs, the life of the car isestimated to be extended by two years, while theresidual value would be unchanged

Depreciation in Income Tax Returns Income Tax rules permit tax payers to claim
depreciation benefits at the prescribed ratesusing written-down-value method
Tax rules do not permit other methods such asthe straight-line method The tax law permits accelerated write-off of
asset costs by prescribing recovery periods that
are shorter than the estimated useful lives for accounting purposes as well as permittingrecovery of a large portion of the cost of theinvestments in the early years
