    I did. Deminimis passed on test 2, for annual testing I did’nt have any clue so i wrote general points regarding claiming next years total input VAT if current annual test is passed and wrote advantages like lower administration costs etc, it was a fluke anyways can’t recall rest of the question.

    Might be wrong – on Terminal loss I think I got £24,500, included the trading loss and the overlap profits. Then carried the relief back on LIFO basis

    I did this, got 8500 and 16000 in year before that, then put something about the saving of 20% as the co paid that CT rate

    There was a loan from a director to a company (usually it’s the other way around) – I went on about loan to a participator/close company , pay 25% to HMRC etc.

    Anyone write something similar?

    yeah it was proceed less cgt= 30,000.

    Yeah unfortunately for me I think that’s right.
    But does anyone have a formula to arrive at the answer? Instead of trial and error…

    I did…but realised that its where the co loans to the employee that HMRC requires 25% form the close co, and started to rethink my answer, but couldnt really think what to put, so left it

    I dont think it was right though ufortunatelty, and if not it was a pretty sneaky question in my opinion

    I dont think that was right, my colleague who also sat the exam said something about entrepreneurs relief – but i really dont think that was right

    I wrote that this was qualifying loan to personal company and he will be able to deduct interest in his income computation before personal allowance. I was thinking about loan to participator but read question again. Don’t know if it’s right.

    i think the examiner asked from the perspective of the director and not the company. So I wrote it being a qualifying interest expense from his employment income as he had more than 5 percent shareholding and also wrote that interest received from the company will be taxed as saving income.

    In the end I also felt that there would be no impact on the income as such because interest received would be set off by the interest paid to the bank because both transactions were at normal commercial terms.

    I appear to be the odd-one-out, but I believe the Substantial Shareholding Exemption DID apply to the disposal in question 3, owing to the FA2011 changes to SSE. Namely, the qualifying 12 month period can include the time when the assets owned by the company being sold were used within a trade carried on by the group before being transferred to the company being sold.

    Hence, the time that the trade was carried on by the predecessor company (Aero?) may count towards the qualifying period.

    Am I missing the point?

    Q4 part 1 the correct answer is 888 shares.

    X= number of shares sold
    sale proceeds = 45X
    Cost = 5X
    Gain = 40X
    CGT @ 28% = 11.2X

    Therefore

    30000 = 45X – 11.2X
    33.8X = 30000
    X = 887.57 or 888 shares

    That looks wrong…. Take the proceeds less cost as you would any cgt, less 28% ignoring annual relief and you don’t get that answer.

    I think it said that A/E of 11000 is used up as he make cap gains. But i believe it is correct as few other ppl have same result.
    Thanks for noticing it.

    The number of shares which I did not work out at the time due to time pressure which I have managed to work out now is 1041.68 shares x45 = 46876. Take off cost of purchase
    1041.68 sharesx5=5208. This equals £41667. Take off CGT @28%=11667.
    Net gain =£30,000

    It did not ask for net gain.
    It had asked for after tax proceeds.
