Hello,
Please can you assist?I chapter 10, the first video goes through example 1.
https://opentuition.com/acca/tx/chapter-10-pension-schemes-acca-taxation-tx-uk-lectures/
“Aston made the following gross amount of contributions into his pension scheme in earlier tax years:
2020/21 £62,000
2021/22 £30,000
2022/23 £25,000
Aston has an annual salary of £120,000.
Compute the total pension input allowed for Aston for the 2022/23 tax year”The answer given is that the annual allowance in 2022/23 is £40k
PLUS only £25k is used in 2022/23, therefore ADD (40k-25k) = £15k
Is this an error or am I misunderstanding the rules? Why is the £40k annual allowance available for the same year seeminly twice?
Many thanks.

I have looked at the example again and I can see what you mean.
I think – and apologise – that it may be the years that are wrong in the question.
You are right – and I’m sorry for the confusion.
I have made a note to amend the question going forward.July 6, 2023 at 8:50 pm #687718Ah fantastic. Thank you for the clarification 🙂

November 16, 2023 at 10:59 am #694956Can you confirm what the correct answer should be in this lecture please?
I thought it would be £50k being, £40K plus the unused £10 k from the previous tax year?
November 16, 2023 at 4:24 pm #694968I think you’re right and the answer has been rewritten for next year – £50k is correct.
