End of year farm expense 2023 or 2024

Not the cheque it is when the invoice is dated for

Edit as the first reply said

Let's hope you are not asked for invoice. Are you registered for VAT or the VAT 58 form

Cheque book stub would do. You could always put it in as an accrual too.

2023

2023 had a few cheques that were not lodged until March, they obviously were dated in order from the cheque book. Its actually early you could still date cheques for another few week's

😉😉

As an aside it a good idea to keep a screen copy of Donedeal adverts where you buy something that you pay for by cheque or even cash.

I'm in a similar position, in so far as I have one bill from 2023 still to be paid. It's going to be January before it's paid now. I'll be paying by cheque, and planned to put a December '23 date on the cheque. Would it work if I put a January '24 date on the actual cheque, and put a December '23 date on the cheque stub, which will be used to show the accountant it was a 2023 expense?

Is it tax deductible anyway or does it have to be written off over several years?

Anyone know the rules around that stuff?

Jeeps, trailers, quads all the same?

Building repairs/modification would be a direct cost or capital expenditures?

What do you mean by "White goods on a rental property". The reason I ask is I've a rental that I had to replace the dishwasher, Microwave and TV last year. I thought I could use the expense of these against the income from the rent.

feck that's like depreciation, similar to farm machinery is that what you mean? It would be messy to be trying to track white goods like I've had Microwaves that have lasted less than 2 years. I always thought I could use 100% of the cost of the item as an expense.
