Transferable PA

Ssaif02bd9y ago
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
