    Aside from the fact I had a nightmare with this paper could someone please answer the question in the IHT question that asked why it’s more beneficial to leave your estate to grandchildren rather than children??

    I am at a complete loss, wrote nothing! I know that was only 2 points so no big deal (least of my worries!) but it’s bugging me!

    Did everyone else have lots of Cs in the MCQ?

    Iht is paid only once, one generation is skipped

    depooling refers to short life assets. assets which are expected to have a useful life less than 8 years and which are land and buildings or fixed plant and machinery are depooled. that is they are included in a separate asset pool.

    I am pretty sure thats what it was said

    If you agree that it stated felicity purchased the 40000 shares at par value then that means that they cost £1 each, therefore totalling £40000 for all 80000(40000 original plus 40000bonus) shares. Meaning that the cost deducted from the MV proceeds is an eighth of 40000 which is £5000.

    What was the answer in the MCQ related to the compliance check?

    The answer was 30 April 2017 as the return date was 31 March 2016 which is a late filing, therefore HMRC has until the quarter day following the 1st anniversary of the actual late filing date.

    I just realize there was a question 6 ? in the final minutes why was it place between a blank page with no instruction as to turn to next page very upset at Acca,,,,,

    It did say on the blank page that question 6 was on the next page and it tells you on the front that there are 6 questions in section B

    I’m sure the entitlement fell into the same tax year but the payment was in the next. Oh well, at worst it’s only 1 point

    hi

    Leaving estate to grandkids rather than children avoids paying tax twice i.e. a house could be left to your DD who pays IHT on it and then when she dies and leaves it to her DD/DS , IHT will be due again..
    so if your kids are already financially in a good position it makes sense to skip a generation and leave inheritance to grandkids

    I think the last bonus entitlement was dated 1 April, so it would fall in the relevant tax year.

    leaving to grandchildren means that IHT wouldn’t be paid twice on same estate.

    If a man dies and his children are given all the inheritance, they pay IHT. When the children die, they pass estate on to their children and IHT is paid AGAIN.

    So skipping one generation avoids this.

    Hi, thanks for your response. I remember that there was a motor car which had sale proceeds much higher than it’s purchase cost.

    But the disposals would have to be restricted to the lower of the proceeds or the cost, wouldn’t it? So I put the costs figure for the disposals, and I didn’t get a negative pool balance when I deducted this from the TWDV + acquisition cost of the motor car. Similarly for the other pool, mine wasn’t negative. Do you remember the figures so I could see where I went wrong? I’m usually strong at capital allowances 🙁

    Hello everyone, for the group vat did u include all the companies because I can remember open tuition tutor saying all can be added but it’s advisable to leave out companies making exempt supplies as this will make the group to be partially exempt and can affect input tax and also it’s good to leave zero rated companies so they can continue making monthly returns.

    Hello
    In the question it was asked about benefits of leaving estate to children rather to grandchildren OR leaving estate to grandchildren rather to children?
    PS: i could not remember exactly.
