Corporation Tax Act 2009

Write the words of this act the way you think they should read. Solon shows your change as a redline against the published text and pins it to that exact text, so it can never be applied to wording you did not see.

744 Effect of part realisation of asset

(1) The tax written-down value of an intangible asset that has been the subject of a part realisation is determined as follows. (2) Immediately after the part realisation the tax written-down value of the asset is— WDVB × AVA AVB where— WDVB is the tax written-down value of the asset immediately before the part realisation, AVA is the accounting value of the asset immediately after the part realisation, and AVB is the accounting value immediately before the part realisation. (3) Subsequently, the tax written-down value of the asset is determined in accordance with section 742 or 743, but subject to subsections (4) and (5). (4) The cost of the asset recognised for tax purposes is the sum of— (a) the tax written-down value in accordance with subsection (2), and (b) the cost recognised for tax purposes of subsequent expenditure on the asset that is capitalised for accounting purposes. (5) Only credits and debits brought into account for tax purposes after the part realisation are taken account of. (6) If there is a further part realisation, subsections (1) to (5) apply again. (7) If there is a subsequent change of accounting policy affecting the asset, Chapter 15 (adjustments on change of accounting policy) applies.

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.
