⇒ the prescribed average life span of the various assets is as in Appendix 1
⇒ the benefit can be abated if:

   i. Provided for less than a year, or/and 
   ii. Shared with another employee, or/and 
   iii. Used for purpose of the business of the employer.


b) The Prescribed Value Method

⇒ an alternative method to determine the value of the BIK provided by the employer to the employee
⇒ The schedules for the prescribed values of the benefits commonly provided to the employee are as in Appendix 2
