    Well
    Cooperation part question 35-36 was quite tough
    Very different from Kitt
    First 15 questions were quite easy
    But i lost a lot carelessly.
    I started with the last 6 questions for saving time
    Then i went to senarios
    And finally last 15s
    But really time management will decrease marks
    Hope to pass

    I cant believe i changed my answer for the simplied invoice question to customer name and exclusive vat amount, my original answer was tax point and customer name doesnt have to be on a simplied invoice.

    I got quite confused in section c. They were asking for the net income after tax. Did we have to calculate the income tax and ni contributions? Seemed like a lot of work for 5 marks

    Your video lecture is by far the best. I watched UK Tax Videos and completed UK Tax Course note for 4 days without sleep with RedBuLL. Today’s exam seemed easy. Thank you all for creating the best lectures and providing the most user-friendly course notes.

    Hey Jargal

    They did not qualify for both relief. Entrepreneur relief minimum percentage is 5% & Investor relief is available for newly subscribed shares. He purchased it from an existing shareholder.

    I had none of the question you guys mentioned 🙂
    For me the exam wasn’t too difficult in general aside from dates and administration which I neglected and there were more questions from this area than I expected. Also, I had a section B question with IHT which was pretty tough for me too, lots of PETs and CLTs.
    Part C was easier, both 15 mark question had a lot of profit adjustments, which I was happy with.
    Should be a pass.

    Another question I got stuck on was the one where he bought something years ago for 5k and sold it to his son for 20k when market value was like 300k. I put down the gains was 0, is this wrong ? My logic was it got sold under market value to his son by huge margin

    there will be chargable gain as proceeds was excess of cost…(20k-5k)=15k…

    Corporation tax question I had, had rollover relief at under sale so gain chargeable now is lower of proceeds not reinvested and total chargeable gain. It also had a chargeable gain group sale so nil gain nil loss. It was v tricky. Not like anything in the book.

    The ir er question I had I didn’t tick either the person didn’t have 5% of the trading shares, and for ir I’m not sure they were newly subscribed shares.

    The tax planning question was also tricky because mine had employer occupational tax donations. Somehow remembered they are deducted from employer Corp tax calculation but v tricky I think
