Purchase new assets before 31st March and maximise savings and improve cashflow with an immediate 20% deduction. (generally when the asset is first used or available for use).
Quick example: $50,000 imaging system = $10,000 immediate deduction, with the remaining $40,000 depreciated normally.
But here's what matters more than the tax benefit: Would you buy this equipment anyway?
The best use of Investment Boost is when you are already planning to invest in something that improves your practice - better patient outcomes, increased capacity, reduced inefficiency.
If the answer is yes and cash flow is the constraint, financing the equipment while still claiming the full deduction is worth exploring. Many practices find they're cash-flow positive in year one when they combine the tax benefit with financing rather than paying upfront.
