Well didn't think I would be posting this! I have just lost my big client due to centralising operations. So I am now going to have to advertise, didn't think I would be in this position right now. I have got a few more weeks work from them then that is it.

I have a new sole trader client. A few years ago he bought a fixed asset to use in the business (with a bit of private use as well) but didn't claim any capital allowances for it as he was doing his own tax return and didn't know he could claim anything. If I take over the accounts now what should I do with it? ...
