Solution

The incorrect statement is b. According to section 8-1 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (ITAA97), you cannot deduct a loss or outgoing to the extent that it is a loss or outgoing of capital, or of a capital nature. This is because capital expenses are not considered part of the everyday running costs of a business and therefore are not typically deductible.
