Cessation of Trading and CGT

Cessation of Trading and CGT

Didn't find your answer?

Hi,

I have a clients who many years ago decided to demolish the garage to the rear of their residential property [a bungalow] and build a small two room office on the same site. The prospect of retirement now looms and the question of CGT and Vat arises. The Vat registered business [sole proprietor at the time of the build] reclaimed Vat on certain of the construction work and the question is:

Is it necessary to have the small office building of two rooms and no other facilities [which under the planning permission is required to revert to residential on the  

business ceasing] independently valued for both Vat and CGT purposes?

Many Thanks,

Peter Reader
