seven evidence by showing consistent advantage for the business enterprises in relocating the
depreciable asset/machinery in a new place. As per “Taxation ruling of TD 92/126” the cost
incurred at the outset of setting new machinery is considered as the revenue for the business
as this cost is generally considered under cost of capital and cannot be entitled for allowable
deductions (Pyrmont 2014).
