About this lesson
You'll discover why there are no balancing allowances or charges on disposal, how the remaining 33 and a third year period transfers to the buyer, and crucially, how to handle the capital gains tax adjustment when SBA is reclaimed on sale. Through a worked example involving Jade and Kitty, you'll see step-by-step how to apportion SBA claims across partial years and understand why the original qualifying cost never changes, even when the property sells for a higher price. This is essential knowledge for the TX (Taxation) paper, where disposal scenarios test your ability to apply relief rules accurately and avoid common mistakes.
