Capital is to be calculated at its current market value or surrender value less—

a

where there would be expenses attributable to sale, 10%; and

b

the amount of any encumbrances secured on it.

2

The market value of a capital asset possessed by a person in a country outside the United Kingdom is—

a

if there is no prohibition in that country against the transfer of an amount equal to the value of that asset to the United Kingdom, the market value in that country; or

b

if there is such a prohibition, the amount it would raise if sold in the United Kingdom to a willing buyer.

3

Where capital is held in currency other than sterling, it is to be calculated after the deduction of any banking charge or commission payable in converting that capital into sterling.
