Electric Vehicle & Advisory Rates
We have purchased an EV for an employee. The Employee is charging at work, at public charge points and at home. It's difficult to say what the split of these methods will be, but likely that work will be the highest share. The employee will be using the car for both business and personal mileage. We are paying for the electricity taken from work and reimbursing public charging if it was necessary for work. We are not reimbursing home charging Am I right in saying that: 1. We can decide whether we ask the employee to repay private miles at the advisory, or any reasonable rates (EIM23900) and there is no tax to pay if we decide not to ask the employee to repay 2. If we decide to ask the employee to repay at the advisory rate, the employee can net off home charged miles at the advisory rate i.e. If the employee can show in his car app that he charged (and paid) for a 200 mile charge at home, then the employee could deduct this 200 miles at tge advisory rate from his personal miles repaid? I think I am correct in the above, but wanted to check.
