    Hi. this is a question from kaplan text:

    new trade commences: 1 jun 2011. year end is 30 apr.
    profits are:

    to 30 apr 12 – 11,000
    to 30 apr 13 – 18,000
    to 30 apr 14 – 22,000

    up till year 3, ie for tax years 11/12, 12/13, 13/14, my calculations are correct.

    i am unable to understand year 4: 14/15

    this is what i am doing:

    is there a period end in this year? the answer is YES. it is 30 apr 14.
    is this period =12, <12 or >12 months? the answer is =12 months
    therefore, the basis of assessment is CYB
    basis period: 1 may 14 – 30 apr 15

    but we dont have data to 30 apr 15.

    the answer for year 4 is 22,000 cyb.

    and in my workings, i do get till the cyb portion…

    can u pls explain where i am going wrong?

    thank u

    In the 14/15 tax year the CYB basis period is the year ended 30 April 2014 NOT 2015!!!
