but what i think is she had further gifted to her cousin or something i dnt know im confused
December 2, 2014 at 5:46 pm #216252Were they spouse?
December 2, 2014 at 5:47 pm #216255Q5 ISA was very easy
December 2, 2014 at 5:48 pm #216256in the first part of Q5 – the lady died and her husband who previously died left 40% of his nrb to the lady. The residue is left to the other chap – nephew or who ever it was
December 2, 2014 at 5:48 pm #216257Anniebabe pls tell me it was 40% of husband ….
December 2, 2014 at 5:49 pm #216259Q3:
So i did not do Gains – CGT, i did Sale proceeds – CGT.

^This was my reasoning and ended up with Alternative 2.
anyone with me?
Net proceeds does not equate to chargeable gain imo
December 2, 2014 at 5:49 pm #216261Glad I’m not the only one who found the exam tough I have practiced tonnes of past paper questions and this exam just seemed so hard and fiddly like nothing I’ve seen before!
December 2, 2014 at 5:49 pm #216262Yes you are right anniebabe
December 2, 2014 at 5:49 pm #216263Roision who?
December 2, 2014 at 5:51 pm #216268No I don’t remember that faizi. She made no lifetime gifts. I thought they were spouse” so she had 325@40%+325.
December 2, 2014 at 5:52 pm #216269It was a spouse in q5, you add his unused nrb to hers to get a bigger relief.
December 2, 2014 at 5:52 pm #216270ohhhhh oka thanks i made a mistake i did add 40% but than did it with 325000
December 2, 2014 at 5:52 pm #216271For Q3
This was my cgt for alternative two:
Proceeds 92000
Cost (8000 at £1 par value).( 8000)
Gain = 84000
Qualifies for ER as she was employee n owned 8% shares. Therefore 10% of 84000 = 8400. Net proceeds = 75 600. This was the highest from the 3December 2, 2014 at 5:54 pm #216275saffiyyah i did Q3 the same but i didnot use er’s relief that is my only mistake

I did also the same for NRB available at death estate
325000 + 130000 (325000*40%) which is 455 000 available in totalDecember 2, 2014 at 5:54 pm #216277So net proceeds means chargeable gain?
December 2, 2014 at 5:56 pm #216280Kassy I think it was 40% of 285000 that you added to her 325000 as that was the nrb at the time of the husbands death.

I did the same as Safiyyah as the disposal qualifyes for ER (> 5% holdings), > 1 year detention and employed in the company.
December 2, 2014 at 5:56 pm #216282I was silly coz I thought the spouse NRB is only valid for about 4 years:(
But nevertheless the husband’s nbr was 285000 in that year not 325000. It was 2006 that’s why. Thus was in the question itselfDecember 2, 2014 at 5:58 pm #216284Yazan – net proceeds was proceeds less Cgt liability

No, Ben you have to apply the available %, i.e 40% to the new NRB at time of death, so 40% * 325,000. I already did the mistake in question practice and the tutors told me you need to appy the % available to the new NRB. I hope it was right.Therefore 40% * 325000
December 2, 2014 at 6:02 pm #216289I thought the paper wasn’t too bad – different than past papers but I managed not bad. Question 2 was the only one I struggled with, managed to get through it, so hope I haven’t lost too many marks! Fingers crossed.
Now to finish studying for F8 on ThursdayDecember 2, 2014 at 6:04 pm #216294Oh crap, oh well hopefully only 1 mark lost there!!
December 2, 2014 at 6:07 pm #216295I agree that Q2 was nightmare but otherwise the exam seemed pretty easy for me, I mean we are not trying to become global prize winners, so I think there were plenty of easy marks and possibilities to pass.

Yes you are right but you see if it was just for 10 marks or 15 marks we would have been more confident but 25 marks…wih all the tricks here end there…
