Recapture of capital cost allowance (CCA) occurs when the sale of the assets causes the UCC [undepreciated capital cost] balance of the class to fall below zero (i.e. a negative balance is created in the class). This means the assets have not depreciated ... Therefore the difference must be "recaptured" and reported as income. 2, record 1, English, - recovery%20of%20capital%20cost%20allowance
