In the CGT question where there was a gift of 40,000 shares at 2.15 per 50p share; what was the value of those shares?I assumed 40000 x 2.15 but wondering if it should have been half of that due to them being 50p shares?
I did the same. Then i think i taxed at 10%. I said it used the 18% rather then the other CGT disposal.
December 10, 2015 at 9:46 pm #290727Yantem, updated all 15 questions with probable answers.
I would appreciate your help to elaborate question # 14. I am somehow unable to recall this question. What was the question and what were the possible options?
December 10, 2015 at 9:47 pm #290729Depending on VAT question and Chargability question I have either 12, 13 or 14. Pretty happy with that
December 10, 2015 at 9:49 pm #29073014) company made a loss of 62k in period but made trading profit of 46k in prior period. In addition the company also made property business losses too. What is the maximum that can be relieved from the prior year?

December 10, 2015 at 9:53 pm #290734With the IHT question what did u mean about the tax being more then the value of shares? I think i got a transfer of value of about 570k and IHT of about Β£200k ish.

The tax payable was Β£228,000
Crazy huh?
December 10, 2015 at 9:56 pm #290738I want to brainstorm section b now. I cant sleep
December 10, 2015 at 9:56 pm #290739@yentam said:
So looks like I got 11/15. Need 28 marks from Part B. Think I’ve passed πGood job I have got 9/15 so need 32 more from Sec B, I think I should be able to get 32 out of 70 π
December 10, 2015 at 9:57 pm #290740@yentam said:
Cant rmemebr exactly the wording.But there were losses to be relieved. You had Β£46k of TP in the prior year. And over Β£50k in employment income. So the entire Β£62k could be relieved because you claim against profits of the same trade (without a limit) and there’s a limit of 50k otherwise, but since the remainder of the loss if less than that, you claim the whole lot!
Oh I remember now. I chose 50k assuming we have to take higher of 25% of 62k or 50k. so i got it wrong. I scored 10/15 π need 30 from part B to pass.
December 10, 2015 at 9:57 pm #290741I put that in my notes after the question, I knew it wasn’t worth a mark but I found it interesting. Probably one of the reasons I didn’t finish the paper lol

My ttp in q6 wasn’t in marginal relief either. I had it at higher rate, but with the first nine months at FY2013 rates and the rest at FY2014 rates.Same for me with the years. I dont know if its because i didnt do anything with the losses from the 4 month CAP. I didnt deduct it frm my ttp for 30.06.14.
And i used 19 associates. I just cant remember the wording of the question about how mamy associates there were. I just presumed 19 included the company we were doing

I got 11/15 mcqs right, can anyone tell me about antique chattle question cause I got 1500 gainI need to read the wording of the question for this one. As i got 2000 based on 6900 but not sure if i should have used 7200
December 10, 2015 at 10:21 pm #290765@yentam said:
Q6 wasn’t in the marginal rate. It was in the main rate.I think I got the inheritance tax correct, the capital gains ques correct, the basis of assessment correct except the overlap profits (Stupid mistake), the cash/accruals – some of it correct, but forgot to do Capital allowances. Re the Trading profit ques, I got Samson’s calcs right but for Delilah, didn’t include the chaffeur’s cost as a benefit, partnership profit was pretty simple. VAT – had to guess a few so maybe half marks, and the corporation tax – well, I got the capital allowances correct, the PBP correct, included the IA for the capital loss incorrectly, remembered to divide by 20 for the limits, and so overall, I think I got more than half marks in part B π
What was ur mistake with overlapping profits? Vat i rambled some rubbish.

what I did was 6900-6000 x 5/3 = 1500 anyways its wrong I guess!Thats what i did. Im so unsure about this mcq
