Where to allocate bank transactions for capital costs or borrowing expenses

Learn how to allocate capital costs and borrowing expenses in TaxTank so they're tracked correctly without affecting your tax return.

Updated this week

TaxTank provides dedicated functionality for recording capital costs and borrowing expenses, which ensures these are correctly included in CGT calculations and borrowing expense claims (spread over 5 years).

What if these expenses show up in bank transactions?

If you’ve received bank transactions for capital-related items, such as:

  • Pre-purchase costs

  • Buyer’s agent fees

  • Initial repairs (not building)

  • Other capital costs

  • Borrowing expenses

You can allocate them to the category "Capital, Buying & Setup Costs (Clearing)"

This category will:

  • Add the expense to the property records for tracking

  • Not affect your tax or appear in claimable deductions
