    How do we calculate cgt tax liability? If the gain is over 34500 then should we tax the whole amount at 20% or only the difference should be taxed at 20%?
    If chargeable gain is 45000 then cgt liability would be 45000@20% or 34500@10% and the difference ie 10500@20%.

    My understanding is that after you’ve worked out the income tax, any remaining basic rate band is then used towards the capital gain @ 10%, then the excess is charged at 20%. Different rates for residential property that didn’t qualify for PPR relief. And remember to apply the annual tax allowance to the capital gain.

    Correct. Use up the remaining basic band with the basic rate first. This came up in the March 19 exam.
