QUOTE(mywii @ Mar 23 2011, 03:46 PM) what are the standard 2 questions? Added on March 23, 2011, 3:48 pm ok then ....decided to get one ipad2 .... QUOTE Personal Computer means a desktop computer, laptop computer and handled computer. But, it does not include computer accessories. [Income Tax (Exemption) (No. 4) Order 2008 P.U.(A) 191/2008]. In reference to Paragraph 46(1)(j) Income Tax Act 1967, for purchase of personal computer for individual, an amount limited to a maximum of RM 3,000 is deductible in respect of the purchase of a personal computer. No deduction will be granted if the computer is used for business purpose. This deduction is allowed once in three years. In the case of iPad, one simple question should be answered: A: Does it only have computer features? OR B: Does it also have handphone features in addition to computer features? If the answer is A, this means the purchaser is entitled to the RM3,000 relief (categorised as a personal computer). But, if the answer is B, the purchaser is not entitled to the RM3,000 relief since it cannot be categorised as a personal computer. Thank you. What is "handphone features" ? |
