1, If a gain is taxed using a percentage, is a loss also taxed that way? So if a person makes a gain of £10,000 then the personal allowance is removed and they must pay 20% GCT tax (depending on their rate) of what remains. But if they make a loss, can they use the full amount as a loss? Or is it like a gain where you can only use 20% as your loss after a personal allowance. Sorry for the dumb question.
2, Do losses for any year need to be declared in that year if they are to be allowed to be carried forward. E.g. can a person make a loss in 2014 and keep it to themsleves and then declare it 2016 to offset a gain?
3, Do net losses need to be declared? If a person makes a gain in a year followed by a bigger loss, do they need to tell HMRC?
4, If a person's income is in the lower tax band, do they pay GCT for the higher tax band if their gain was higher than the higer rate of income. E.g. someone earns £25k a year but made a CG of £65k. Do they pay 10% or 20% CGT?
