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 passMarch 2, 2021 at 5:18 pm #612740edit: Whoops, this is TX, not ATX…
March 2, 2021 at 5:32 pm #612750I 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.
March 2, 2021 at 6:01 pm #612761I 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
March 2, 2021 at 6:04 pm #612763Can anyone remember answers to section C?
March 2, 2021 at 6:09 pm #612767If i recall correctly it asked for total taxable income, so after the personal allowance, which was 0 as it exceeded 150k income

i guessed qual for both
March 2, 2021 at 7:04 pm #612791I put did not qualify but I think it does, I was thrown often by the gifting scenario
March 2, 2021 at 7:30 pm #612800Your 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.
March 2, 2021 at 7:34 pm #612808Hey Jargal
What did you put for investors relief and Entrepreneur relief question, did they qualify or not?
March 2, 2021 at 8:48 pm #612831They 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.
March 2, 2021 at 9:38 pm #612849Last question for me there was a share matching question in c, was it for a company or individual? Can’t remember!
March 2, 2021 at 10:04 pm #612852Hello, Situation does not qualify for both relief as i see
March 2, 2021 at 11:04 pm #612863I 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.March 3, 2021 at 12:49 am #612869Another 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…
March 3, 2021 at 2:17 am #612876anyone found the corporation tax and tax planning question too difficult??
March 3, 2021 at 6:01 am #612885Corporation 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.
March 3, 2021 at 6:04 am #612887The 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
March 3, 2021 at 6:09 am #612888*pension
March 3, 2021 at 8:28 am #612911For the IHT question in section B, was the wife entitled to the RNRB of the husband who had died?
March 3, 2021 at 8:36 am #612917Yes and as it’s passed to kids it’s fully usuable
March 3, 2021 at 8:40 am #612919Hmm I don’t think I got the same corporation tax planning question, did you have the question to compare net income while employed vs when she was an employee after nic and income tax?
March 3, 2021 at 8:42 am #612921I thought so too!
