Incidental cost
=Gain before indexation
Indexation factor (0.1) x to the initial costs incurred, acquisition and incidental- check facts
for indexation- applies to initial and subsequent expenditure but not purchase value
= deduct this from the gain before indexation
Apply reliefs to gains:
Roll over relief on the replacement of a qualifying business asset TCGA 152
- 159
Qualifying business assets:
- Land
-Buildings
Must be used in the company’s trade as opposed to being held as an investment
- Company shares are NOT qualifying assets
- Separate relief for goodwill
- Plant and machinery is qualifying but rare to produce a gain due to depreciation.
Time limits: the replacement either needs to be purchased one year before or within 3
years of the original disposal
The gain after indexation on the disposal will be deducted from the acquisition cost- and
the tax payable is postponed until the replacement is sold = DO NOT NEED TO PAY TAX
ON THE GAIN FOR THAT YEAR
Can keep rolling over as long as they keep reinvesting the gain.
= ROLLS OVER THE GAIN TO WHEN THE REPLACEMENT ASSET IS DISPOSED OF
( If the gain is £30,000 and replacement is £80,000 written down value is £50,000 but the
tax will be higher on the disposal).
