    sir,I have an issue about transferable PA.
    say A & B are married couple.
    A has a net income of 10k
    B has a net income of 22k.
    calculate the income tax liability
    solution:
    A’s net income: 10000
    Pa. :(10600)=Nil
    so,A has unused PA of 600
    and B is basic taxpayer.
    my concern is the transferable amount is 1060 but A has only 600 unused PA.
    should we still transfer 1060X20% ie. 222 tax reducer to the tax liability calculation?
    and importantly in some questions say if A has net income 0f 8k,then it showed like:
    A’s net income: 8000
    pa.(10600-1060)=(9540)= nil.
    A had 2600 unused PA that’s why we show 1060 as a deduction in this calculation?
    plz explain sir..

    If the election is made then £1,060 of the PA of A will be transferred reducing the PA down to £9,540 and therefore if A has income of £10,000 then this will create a taxable income for A of £460.
    Remember that we do not transfer the PA of £1,060 to B but we instead will then reduce the tax liability of B by £212
