    Could you help me with this question please?

    Q. Liam purchased an antique vase for £22000 on 30 March 2002, incurring legal fees of £800.

    The market value for an antique glassware has since slumped and Liam sold the vase for £5500 on 1 January 2017 incurring auctioneer fees of £300.

    What is Liam’s allowable loss on this disposal?

    Thanks!!

    P.s I have the answer but I’m unsure why it’s saying the disposal proceeds are £6000, when it was sold for £5500.

    Thanks.

    That would suggest you have not read the OT notes (chapter 12 page 82 section 5 on chattels) nor watched the lectures – I would strongly advise you do both to acquire the knowledge you need.
