- | Time apportionment | 拢46,620 x 57 11/12 / 58 11/12= | (45,828) |
Note: The loss to be compared with the rebased loss is the loss after time-apportionment. See also the note to Example 1 at CG16740 regarding indexation.
Allowable loss = (45,828)
Example 3 - rebasing creates a loss
A company purchased an asset costing 拢2,000 on 1 May 1967. 31 March 1982 market value 拢8,000. Asset sold (at arm鈥檚 length) for 拢24,000 on 6 March 2013.
REBASED LOSS
- | - | - | 拢 |
---|---|---|---|
- | Disposal proceeds | - | 24,000 |
less | Cost (value at 31 March 1982) | - | 8,000 |
- | Unindexed gain | - | 16,000 |
Less | Indexation | 8,000 x 2.131 | 17,048 |
- | Loss | - | (1,048) |
GAIN ON OLD RULES
- | - | - | 拢 |
---|---|---|---|
- | Disposal proceeds | - | 24,000 |

- | Unindexed gain | - | 22,000 |
Less | Indexation | 8,000 x 2.131 | 17,048 |
- | Gain | - | 4,952 |
See the note to Example 1 at CG16740 regarding indexation.
As there is a rebased loss but a gain on the old rules, neither a gain nor a loss is deemed to arise.
Example 4 - no gain or loss
A company purchased an asset costing 拢2,000 on 1 May 1967. 31 March 1982 market value 拢8,000. Asset sold (at arm鈥檚 length) for 拢19,048 on 6 March 2013.
GAIN ON OLD RULES
- | - | - | 拢 |
---|---|---|---|
- | Disposal proceeds | - | 19,048 |
less | Cost (on 1 May 1967) | - | 2,000 |
- | Unindexed gain | - | 17,048 |
Less | Indexation | 8,000 x 2.131 | 17,048 |
- | - | - | Nil |
As neither a gain nor a loss arises on the old rules, neither a gain nor a loss is deemed to arise following rebasing.
Example 5 - disposal following no gain/no loss transfer
Asset cost 拢8,000 on 1 March 1980. 31 March 1982 market value 拢7,000. Asset sold to a company in same group for 拢16,000 on 6 April 1992.
These are the same dates and amounts as in CG16740. As a disposal between companies in the same group is is deemed to be at no gain/no loss, see CG45200+, then this is a specified no gain/no loss disposal, see CG16880.
The second company is to be treated as acquiring the asset for 拢13,976 (that is, cost 拢8,000 plus indexation allowance 拢5,976) and rebasing will apply on any subsequent disposal of the asset by her.
Example 6 - gain rolled over before 31 March 1982
Asset A was sold in 1980 for 拢1,000 realising a gain of 拢500.
A company acquired asset B in 1981 for 拢2,000 and a CGTA79/S115 (now TCGA92/S152) roll-over relief claim was made reducing its cost for CGT purposes to 拢1,500.
Asset B was sold in March 2013 for 拢15,000 The market value of asset B at 31 March 1982 was 拢3,000.
REBASED GAIN
- | - | - | 拢 |
---|---|---|---|
- | Disposal proceeds | - | 15,000 |
less | Cost (market value at 31 March 1982) | - | 3,000 |
- | Unindexed gain | - | 12,000 |
Less | Indexation | 3,000 x 2.131 | 6,393 |
- | Gain | - | 5,607 |
Note: No adjustment is made to the 31 March 1982 market value of asset B for the gain on asset A which was rolled over before 31 March 1982 against the acquisition cost of asset B.
