Interest paid on delayed VAT was examined under the principle that business expenses must be incurred wholly and exclusively for business. Applying the precedent that interest on sales-tax arrears is compensatory rather than penal, the article concludes the assessing authorities erred in disallowing such interest; accordingly the interest debited in the profit and loss account should be allowed as a deductible business expenditure under section 37(1).
