    If an individual sells some shares, and makes 2 or more purchase within 30 days.

    Is the cost of purchase to offset against gains based on the average cost of the combined post-sale purchases (ie those within 30 days)?

    Or is it on another a basis, FIFO or LIFO perhaps?

    Thanks

    also 2nd question

    Do bonus shares and rights issues follow the ‘same day’ and ‘within 30 day’ rules as normal acquisitions?

    Thanks

    1) If more than one acquisition takes place in the following 30 days then a FIFO basis would apply in recognising which shares have been sold

    2) A disposal will not take place immediately prior to a rights or bonus issue
