Property Income - Insurance payment

Mmansoor11y ago
Insurance was paid on 29.6.14 for 585 till 31.5.15. i am calculating it as 9 months: jul, A, S, O, N, D, J, F, M but the example takes it as 10 months. can u please explain how it is 10 months?

Having checked through the notes I assume you are referring to Q.7 Peter in the Practice Questions section. The date the amount was paid is entirely irrelevant - we deduct expenses on an accruals basis for the amount incurred in the tax year - look at the question and see that the Insurance payment was for the year ended 31 May 2015 of which 10 months fall into the 14/15 tax year!
