    Yea but i assumed he carried forward in 2015-16 unused allowances for max 3 years as he was member of the scheme, hence c/f 50000-6000 X 2 (for both 2012/13 and 2013/14) but might have been wrong judgement…

    I did the same for the capital contribution towards the list price.

    I didn’t realise that the car was second hand either and gave it FYA!

    In Q #33, when we were told about the used computers bought for the capital allowance computation, did they give information about it’s current market value to throw us off?

    Q5 I put A, also found this definition to back it up: An Extra-Statutory Concession is a relaxation which gives taxpayers a reduction in tax liability to which they would not be entitled under the strict letter of the law. Most concessions are made to deal with what are, on the whole, minor or transitory anomalies under the legislation and to meet cases of hardship at the margins of the code where a statutory remedy would be difficult to devise or would run to a length out of proportion to the intrinsic importance of the matter.

    anyone agrees?:)

    Yeah, I multiplied the amount they actually paid for the comps by 3.

    I ignored the part where we were told about the full price of the comps.

    I done same with pension went back 3 years .. 2 x (50K – 6K) and (40K – 6K)

    Put car 1 in as FYA too.
    Was one of the PC discarded? Think I left one out. Put other two in an SLA column at allowed 18%.

    Paper in general was fair enough. First time I was never stuck for time at end.

    What was the advise in the CLT’s into the trust? … I put that he should gift 325K to it every 7 yrs and would have no iht liability as he was fairly young etc

    Home Entertainment .. I put cost * 20%

    Was it medical insurance or medical bills .. medical bills to return to work are allowable.

    What was the incorporated answer .. I said they weren’t as all control overseas.

    Guessed the ISA one but never realised it overlapped the tax ye.

    I was slightly confused about that, FYA is for new cars. So i decided the put ‘motor car 1’ in the main pool. not sure if right.

    18% was the right percentage.
    I deducted the employee contribution from list price as well.

    Thats exactly what I did . Hope for best

    How was the moving expense for taxable benefit? Up to 8000 is exempt and the excess amount will be taken as taxable benefit… is that correct ?

    Correct, the remaining 2600 was taxable. The way i ve done it:
    Alice – 18%, list price less 5000 contrib, fuel 22100 * 18%, mileage allowance not taxable benefit
    Claude – private telephone exempt, home system cost less 20% * cost (probably not right)
    Buma – loan ( 30000 plus 18000 )/2 * 3%, less interest paid; 18000 as repaid 12000 throughout the year
    Denise – 2600 only taxable, medical costs exempt up to 500 per annum

    Then computed * 13.8% for each to get class 1A

    Anyone else agrees on the above?

    It was an ok exam…..the written parts were cheaper than expected.Unfortunately, I spent too much time on the tricky Objs.
    I bet it is better to start with the written questions.

    Well 22100 x 20% not 18% lol
    and even if it is USED CAR the FYA will still be charged and taken to Capital Allowances.
