    Hi, I believe its to do with the capital goods scheme.

    It is relevant where a partially exempt business buys a building for more than £250,000 and there is a change in the partial exemption % during the 10 year adjustment period.

    Here the recoverable input VAT drops from 70% to 55% then 50%, so Viola Ltd has to pay back some of the input VAT initially reclaimed.

    There is also a final adjustment in the year of disposal for the reminder of the 10 year adjustment period – i.e. 7/10, 7 years remaining in scheme.

    I hope this helps

    Dorian

    I’m also sitting P6 UK for the first time in June’14. I will be using BPP learning material. I have always used them, and I find them to be very useful. I’ve got the Study Text, Pass Cards and the Audio Success CD. The kits are released on the 31/01/14 and I shall be getting that once it is released.

    As the previous comment said: Make sure that you get the latest edition based on FA2013.

    Good Luck with the P6 exam!

    Yes this is true. Last time I received both email and sms. Just over a week to go…I’m dreading it!

    Cazza99 – I did exactly the same for the performance gap. I also agree that the transferring of the marketing costs made no different to the overall profit of the company. I had Plan A missing the performance target and Plan B exceeding the target.

    I answered Questions 3 & 4. I had a blank on the performance pyramid, otherwise I would have done question2.

    I also think that time management/exam technique was key in this exam, I hadn’t realised that variable costs was in units at first, so I had to re-calculate the first requirement in Q1, so I was playing catch-up from the start. I gave myself 1h15 for section B and managed to finish in time.

    This was my first attempt at P5, so I’m hopeful that I’ve done enough to pass! I have P2 on Tuesday so I must get back to the books.
