Depreciation on a cellphone
By Alicia Human · Updated
I have a pay as you go cellphone that I bought cash. Thus I unfortunately do not have monthly statements to determine an exact break between business and personal use. I spend about R300 pm on airtime and I receive a cellphone allowance of R750 pm from my employer. How do I calculate and show the depreciation amount and do I need a letter of consent if the allowance is shown on my salary slips?

If SARS does request supporting documents, you may need to provide a letter from your employer and you will also need to provide some justification for how you calculated the spilt between personal and business use.
