This is in response to your fax of August 26, 1998, in which you asked us for an insert for the above-mentioned file. Our suggestion is below:
For income tax purposes, expenditures incurred to repair a building are ordinarily deductible in computing taxable income from property or business, as would be the interest on any money borrowed to pay for such repairs. When a taxpayer receives government assistance for such repairs, it reduces the cost of the repairs made, and any excess is included in business or property income. However, since most housing co-operatives corporations qualify as non-profit organizations under the Income Tax Act, no Part I tax is payable on any income that they may earn.
We trust that these comments will be of assistance.
