    current second hand value, not a strict rule but a general one

    I would-in fact to be more accurate, I did! :)
  • What does Fixtures and fittings mean under Assest and does the section on the online form for Assets where it says Cash in bank, building society or similar account only required for cash over £1000

    Fixtures and fittings are furniture and things like that I think. Unless you have something of particular high value, again, just write None.

    You should write down the balance of your accounts, even if its very small.

    Hi F&F's would mostly be used by businessess for example a pub may have 50 tables and 100 seats so worth the OR doing something about them

    Thanks debtinfo, that clears that up-when I first got my SOA I was ready to list my wardrobes and everything :rolleyes: bet the OR would have loved that-would have given them a laugh anyway :)

    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker
    someone told me that if the money you have at br date is what is allocated for monthly living expenses, then you don't put anything under cash assets. however if you have £500 above what is allocated, then you declare this.

    is this right peeps?

    List in both I would think. The OR will know its the same account by the sortcode/acc number.
