TaxTim says: 12 February 2016 at 15:29 Unfortunately then you will not be able to deduct the costs against this allowance, but you could deduct the depreciation of the cell phone - which would be over 3 years. You would need to demonstrate to SARS however what the split between personal and private use was. |
