正确答案：
(c) Claims for capital losses
Where the value of shares (a chargeable asset) has become negligible (defined as <5% of the original cost), a claim can be
made to treat the asset as though it was sold and then immediately reacquired for its current market value. This is known as
a negligible value claim.
The sale and reacquisition is treated as taking place at the time that the claim is made or at a specified time (up to 2 years
before the start of the tax year in which the claim was made) if the asset was of negligible value at that time.
As the loss is on unquoted shares, a further relief (s.574 ICTA 1988) allows the loss to be relieved against the total income
of the taxpayer for the year in which the loss arose, and/or against the total income of the previous year.
Losses are first relieved against current year income, with any excess being available for offset against the prior year’s income.
Bob can therefore make a negligible value claim as at 1 December 2004. This will give rise to a loss of ￡14,500
(￡500 – ￡15,000) which will be deemed to arise in the year 2004/05. By doing so, his taxable income for that year will be
reduced from ￡36,875 to ￡22,375.

(iii) Tethys Ltd – Sale of the manufacturing premises
Value added tax (VAT)
– The building is not a new building (i.e. it is more than three years old). Accordingly, the sale of the building is an
exempt supply and VAT should not be charged unless Tethys Ltd has opted to tax the building in the past.
Taxable profits on sale
– There will be no balancing adjustment in respect of industrial building allowances as the building is to be sold on
or after 21 March 2007.
– The capital gain arising on the sale of the building will be ￡97,760 (￡240,000 – (￡112,000 x 1·27)).
Rollover relief
– Tethys Ltd is not in a capital gains group with Saturn Ltd. Accordingly, rollover relief will only be available if Tethys
Ltd, rather than any of the other Saturn Ltd group companies, acquires sufficient qualifying business assets.
– The amount of sales proceeds not spent in the qualifying period is chargeable, i.e. ￡40,000 (￡240,000 –
￡200,000). The balance of the gain, ￡57,760 (￡97,760 – ￡40,000), can be rolled over.
– Qualifying business assets include land and buildings and fixed plant and machinery. The assets must be brought
into immediate use in the company’s trade.
– The assets must be acquired in the four-year period beginning one year prior to the sale of the manufacturing
premises.
Further information required:
– Whether or not Tethys Ltd has opted to tax the building in the past for the purposes of VAT.

正确答案：
(b) Both companies are listed. The only difference will be in the availability of inheritance tax relief – specifically business property
relief (BPR). If Stuart and Rebecca jointly hold in excess of 50% of the share capital of a listed company, BPR will apply at
the rate of 50%. Otherwise, no BPR is available.
Stuart can only buy 1,005,000 (￡422,100/￡0·42) shares in Omikron plc. This represents a shareholding of 2·00%
(1,005,000/50,250,000). As the shares in Omikron plc are listed, a 2% holding will not qualify for BPR.
At the moment, both Stuart and Rebecca own 2,400,000 shares in Omega plc. Their shareholdings are amalgamated for
IHT purposes under the related property rules. With a joint holding of 48%, BPR is not available. A further 200,001 shares
will be required to attain a 50% holding. Assuming Stuart and Rebecca can buy these shares, they must then hold their 50%
interest in the company for the period of at least two years in order to ensure that BPR applies.
On the basis that Stuart is expected to survive for two to three years, he should therefore buy further shares in Omega plc in
order to take advantage of the BPR available.
