Unrecovered amounts arising from a chit foreman's obligation to make good subscriber defaults qualify for deduction as bad debts or, alternatively, business losses. Consistent allowance of interest on security deposits and commission and gifts paid to associated entities should continue where facts, legal position and operating arrangements remain unchanged. Royalty for a non-exclusive, non-transferable logo licence, without ownership or acquisition of an enduring asset, is revenue expenditure. Overdraft-interest disallowance is unwarranted where surplus funds are sufficient to make interest-free advances.
