Aaron Ketwkk Out Wed March Farm Report A- A WALL Agricultural Representative for York Region Farm business meetings are in progress this week at several centres in York and the list of complex business items seems to get longer and longer Taxes account for a lot of the difficulties and the tax on capital gains is the most complex Establishing the cost or valuation day value involves splitting the total between house farm buildings and land and allowing for improvements made overall several years Sorting out a selling price can be difficult too Capital recapture on machinery and buildings is high on the complexity scale too With prices going up steadily machinery often trades for more than its depreciated value and since all machinery purchased since has to be on the declining balance system any gain is really added to income Recapture can be important too on buildings and silos when farms are soW Its obvious that professional help from ac countants lawyers and appraisers is needed when farms are sold Transfers within a family may not have much changing hands but good tax advice is needed just the same There are special provisions for switching assets from
