106Cash equivalent: cost of accommodation over £75,000U.K.
(1)The cash equivalent is calculated under this section if the cost of providing the living accommodation exceeds £75,000.
(2)To calculate the cash equivalent—
Step 1
Calculate the amount that would be the cash equivalent if section 105 applied (cash equivalent: cost of accommodation not over £75,000).
Step 2
Calculate the following amount (“the additional yearly rent”)—
where—
ORI is the official rate of interest in force for the purposes of Chapter 7 of this Part (taxable benefits: loans) on 6th April in the tax year, and
C is the cost of providing the accommodation calculated—
(a) in accordance with section 104 (general rule for calculating cost of accommodation), or
(b) in a case where section 107 applies (special rule for calculating cost of providing accommodation), in accordance with that section instead.
Step 3
Calculate the rent which would have been payable for the taxable period if the property had been let to the employee at the additional yearly rent calculated under step 2.
Step 4
Calculate the cash equivalent by—
(a)adding together the amounts calculated under steps 1 and 3, and
(b)(if allowed by subsection (3)) subtracting from that total the excess rent paid by the employee.
(3)In step 4—
(a)paragraph (b) only applies if, in respect of the taxable period, the rent paid by the employee in respect of the accommodation to the person providing it exceeds the rental value of the accommodation for that period as set out in section 105(3) or (4)(b), as applicable, and
(b)“the excess rent” means the total amount of that excess.
