Hello
First time I'm filling in the CGT section for out tax returns so wanted to check my calcs/understanding is correct please.
Husband and I owned a joint property which we lived in for a number of years, then rented as we moved out and into our new home.
Total ownership 276 mths
Lived in 114 mths
Rented 162 mths
Purchase price and other allowable costs £100,652
Sale proceeds £385.000
Gross Gain £284,348
PRR calculation 114 mths + 18mths = 132/276 x £284,348 = £135,992
Letting relief calculation = £40,000
My questions are:
1. Are the above relief calculations correct?
2. As the property was jointly owned, I assume i show 50% of cost,sale and gain on each of our returns? (ie gain would result in £284,348/2 = £142,174 on each return)
3. In Box 8 Working sheet should I show "LET" as the election code?
4. Assuming the reliefs are correct, do I enter £135,992/2 plus £40k in the box for claim/election?
5. Can't access HMRC at the moment due to service issues, but where should the relief amount be entered? i couldn't see this on the CGT work sheet
Thanks in advance for help & guidance, much appreciated.
