    Hi Sir,
    Hope you are well!
    In BPP kit in the above mentioned question I am unabel to understand the Annual allowance calculation performed :
    Ques – Each tax year since 6 April 2013 (including the tax year 2020/21), Downtown plc has
    contributed £25,000 into the company’s HM Revenue & Customs’ registered money
    purchase occupational pension scheme on Petula’s behalf. Petula has never personally
    made any pension contributions. Petula’s adjusted income for 2017/18, 2018/19 and
    2019/20 was below £150,000. CY income is >312,000

    Advise Petula of the total amount of her unused pension annual allowances which are
    available to carry forward to the tax year 2021/22.

    Now I understand that for CY of 2020/21 there will be max of 4,000 and for rest 3 years will be :
    19/20 Brought forward 15000
    18/19 Brought forward 15000
    17/18 Brought forward 15000
    max contribution 45000

    I am not sure what next where I am getting wrong here ?

    The question as you have written above is asking –
    “Advise Petula of the total amount of her unused pension annual allowances which are available to carry forward to the tax year 2021/22”.
    It is not asking you to calculate the max contributions in 2020/21.
    I presume the answer will then show the calculation of the amount to be c/f to 2021/22

    Work out what the total pension allowance available is for 20/21 – how much of that would be used in 20/21 and therefore what was to be c/f to 21/22 – once again I would have thought the BPP answer would show the calculation?
