Income and Corporation Taxes Act 1988

Yn ddilys o 19/07/2006

18(1)This paragraph applies if the period of the loss in which a ring fence loss is incurred is the deemed accounting period under paragraph 3(3) beginning on 1st January 2006 (“the deemed accounting period”).

(2)The amount of the ring fence loss in the deemed accounting period is determined as follows.

  • Step 1

  • Calculate so much of the ring fence loss in the straddling period as, for the purposes of Part 4 of Schedule 19B, is attributable to qualifying E&A allowances for the straddling period.

  • The amount given by this step is “the qualifying Schedule 19B amount”.

  • Step 2

  • Calculate so much of the ring fence loss in the straddling period as is attributable to allowances for the straddling period under Part 6 of the Capital Allowances Act in respect of relevant expenditure.

  • For the purposes of this step “relevant expenditure” means expenditure incurred by the company on or after 1st January 2006 which, but for that fact, would be qualifying E&A expenditure for the purposes of Schedule 19B.

  • For the purposes of this step a ring fence loss is attributable to those allowances to the extent that the amount of the loss (less the qualifying Schedule 19B amount) does not exceed the amount of those allowances for that period.

  • The amount given by this step is “the amount of the post-1st January 2006 E&A allowances”.

  • Step 3

  • Deduct the qualifying Schedule 19B amount and the amount of the post-1st January 2006 E&A allowances from the amount of the ring fence loss in the straddling period.

  • Step 4

  • Apportion the remaining amount of that loss (if any) to the deemed accounting period in proportion to the number of days in the deemed accounting period that fall in the straddling period.

  • The amount given by this step is “the amount of the apportioned loss”.

  • Step 5

  • The amount of the ring fence loss in the deemed accounting period is the amount of the apportioned loss plus the amount of the post-1st January 2006 E&A allowances.

(3)In this paragraph “the straddling period”, in relation to a qualifying company, means an accounting period of the company—

(a)beginning before 1st January 2006, and

(b)ending on or after that date,

disregarding paragraph 3(3).

(4)In this paragraph references to the ring fence loss in the straddling period are to that loss determined on the assumption that the straddling period is the period of the loss for the purposes of paragraph 17.

(5)This paragraph has effect for the purposes of this Part of this Schedule.
