Trading Income Assessment - BPP Kit OT Case No.79

TThuong5y ago
Hi Sir, I'm a little confused so hope you could help me out on this. They commenced the partnership on 1 July 2017, preparing to 30 April. So their basis period would be: - 1st tax year: 1.7.17 to 5.4.18 - 2nd tax year: 1.7.17 to 31.6.18 - 3rd tax year: cyb so year ended 30.4.19 The question asks for trading assessement for the tax year 2019/20 so I thought it would be based on y/e 30.4.19 figures. But the answer uses y/e 30.4.20, isn't this end date in tax year 2020/21? Please let me know if I messed up my thoughts somewhere here. Thank you so much.

Based on the information you have given me you are correct, assuming no changes in partners during this period - the assessment in 2019/20 for each partner will indeed be CYB which with a 30 April year end will be year ended 30 April 2019, with year ended 30 April 2020 being assessed in 2020/21.
