Is Neil a sole trader individual as he will have the Annual exemption allowance. Limited companies have indexation allowance but this ceased April 2018.A gain can be deferred by roll over relief if the full proceeds are reinvested in a non wasting asset

The proceeds must be invested within 36 months otherwise the gain is chargeable

Snoopdog thank you for trying to help a fellow student but it would be best if you leave this forum to me.
Gracious – what do you think is the issue being tested here and what is it about the model answer that you do not understand?
