Our Experts Answer:
Unfortunately, you are correct. In order to transfer the properties into the LAQC, you must use the market value and the market value must be determined by an independent person, as you have done. However, the amount of depreciation that can be claimed in the LAQC is limited to whatever you claimed previously when the property was owned in your personal name. This also means that you cannot use a chattel valuation in the LAQC if you did not use a chattel valuation when it was in your personal name.Kenina Court is a director of Acorn Solutions Limited, an accounting firm dedicated to working with clients to help them create wealth.
