301 Calculation of non-trading profits and deficits from loan relationships: non-trading credits and debits

(1) Whether a company has non-trading profits or a non-trading deficit from its loan relationships for an accounting period is determined in accordance with subsections (4) to (7), using the non-trading credits and non-trading debits given by this Part for the accounting period. (1A) In the case of a non-UK resident company, subsections (4) to (7) need to be read with section 5(3), (3A)(b) and (3B)(b) (territorial scope of charge to corporation tax). (2) In this Part— (a) “non-trading credits” means credits for any accounting period in respect of a company's loan relationships that are not brought into account under section 297(2), and (b) “non-trading debits” means debits for any accounting period in respect of a company's loan relationships that are not brought into account under section 297(3). (3) But see also— (a) section 330 (debits in respect of pre-trading expenditure), and (b) section 482(1) (under which credits or debits to be brought into account under Chapter 2 of Part 6 (relevant non-lending relationships) are treated as non-trading credits or debits). (4) A company has non-trading profits for an accounting period from its loan relationships if the non-trading credits for the period exceed the non-trading debits for the period or there are no such debits. (5) The non-trading profits are equal to those credits, less any such debits. (6) A company has a non-trading deficit for an accounting period from its loan relationships if the non-trading debits for the period exceed the non-trading credits for the period or there are no such credits. (7) The non-trading deficit is equal to those debits, less any such credits.

One line that says what changes, such as "Halve the dog tax".

Who it helps, what it costs, what it fixes. It is what persuades people to support it.

A proposal here is not law. Support on Solon is evidence that people want the change; the official route says what it takes to make it law.

Think it through

Ask what your change would do, who would gain and who would bear a cost, and where something like it is already law. The assistant reads your draft as it stands, cites the law and the studies it finds, and takes no side. What you file stays yours.
