問(wèn)題:In June 2012 Pale Ltd sold its freehold office building for £600,000 giving rise to an indexed gain of £360,000. Half of the building had always been rented out for a commercial rent.
  In August 2012, the company purchased for £400,000 a new office block, which will be occupied solely for the purposes of its trade.
  How much of the gain is eligible for rollover relief?
  A. £120,000
  B. £360,000
  C. £160,000
  D. £180,000
  答案:The correct answer is: £180,000.
  Gain from use in taxpayer's trade
  = £360,000 x 1/2
  = £180,000.
  Proceeds, relating to this half, of £300,000 are fully reinvested so all of the gain of this half is eligible for rollover relief.
