148F Lessor under long funding operating lease: termination of lease
(1) This section applies in calculating for income tax purposes the profits of a person carrying on a trade if the person is the lessor immediately before the termination of a long funding operating lease.
(2) If the termination amount exceeds the sum of the amounts in subsection (3), an amount equal to the excess is treated as income of the person attributable to the lease arising in the period of account in which it terminates.
(3) The amounts referred to in subsection (2) are—
(a) the total amounts paid to the lessee that are calculated by reference to the termination value,
(b) the excess relevant value for section 148D (see subsection (6)), and
(c) the excess expenditure for section 148E (see subsection (7)).
(4) If the sum of the amounts in subsection (3) exceeds the termination amount, the excess is treated as a revenue expense incurred by the person in connection with the lease in the period of account in which it terminates.
(5) No deduction is allowed in respect of any sums within subsection (3)(a).
(6) “The excess relevant value for section 148D” is the amount (if any) by which—
(a) the starting value of the plant or machinery for the purposes of section 148D(4) (lessor under long funding operating lease: periodic deduction), exceeds
(b) the total of the deductions allowable under section 148D for periods of account for the whole or part of which the person was the lessor.
(7) “The excess expenditure for section 148E” is the amount (if any) by which—
(a) the total of any amounts of capital expenditure incurred by the person which constitute additional expenditure in the case of the lease for the purposes of section 148E (long funding operating lease: lessor's additional expenditure), exceeds
(b) the total of any deductions allowable under section 148E for periods of account for the whole or part of which the person was the lessor.
(8) For the meaning of “termination amount” and “termination value”, see sections 70YG and 70YH of CAA 2001 (as applied by section 148J(4)).

(a) is (apart from those sections) allowable as a deduction in calculating the profits or losses of the trade, and
(b) is so allowable as a result of the plant or machinery forming part of the trading stock of the trade.
(3) For the purposes of this section the cases in which expenditure incurred by a person carrying on a trade on the acquisition of any plant or machinery for leasing under a lease is allowable as such a deduction include any case where—
(a) the person becomes entitled to the deduction at any time after the expenditure is incurred, and
(b) the deduction arises as a result of the plant or machinery forming part of the trading stock of the trade at that time.
(4) If—
(a) at any time any of sections 148A to 148F has applied for determining the amounts to be taken into account in calculating the profits or losses of the trade, and

(b) the person enters into a lease (“lease B”) of any of that plant or machinery (as lessor), and
(c) lease B is a long funding lease.
(2) Sections 148A to 148F do not apply in relation to lease B.
(3) If by virtue of section 70H of CAA 2001 (tax return by lessee treating lease as long funding lease) lease A becomes a long funding lease (and does not cease to be such a lease), treat this section as never having applied in relation to lease B.
148FC Cases where ss. 148A to 148F do not apply: other avoidance
(1) Sections 148A to 148F do not apply in the case of a person carrying on a trade who is or has been the lessor of any plant or machinery under a long funding lease if conditions A to C are met.
(2) Condition A is that the long funding lease forms part of any arrangement entered into by the person which includes one or more other transactions (whether the arrangement is entered into before or after or at the inception of the lease).
(3) Condition B is that the main purpose, or one of the main purposes, of the arrangement is to secure that, over the relevant period, there would be a substantial difference between—
(a) the total amount of the amounts under the arrangement which are, in accordance with generally accepted accounting practice, recognised in determining the profit or loss of the trade for any period or taken into account in calculating the amounts which are so recognised, and
(b) the total amount of the amounts under the arrangement which are taken into account in calculating the profits or losses of the trade.
(4) For the purposes of condition B “the relevant period” means the period which begins with the inception of the lease and ends with the end of the term of the lease.
(5) Condition C is that the difference would be attributable (wholly or partly) to the application of any of sections 148A to 148F in relation to the person by reference to the plant or machinery under the lease.
(6) The reference in this section to an amount being recognised in determining the profit or loss of a trade for a period is to an amount being recognised for accounting purposes—

(b) in the statement of recognised gains and losses or statement of changes in equity relating to the trade, or
(c) in any other statement of items brought into account in calculating the profits and losses of the trade for that period.
(7) For the purposes of this section it does not matter whether the parties to any transaction which forms part of the arrangement differ from the parties to any of the other transactions.
(8) For the purposes of this section the cases in which two or more transactions are to be taken as forming part of an arrangement include any case in which it would be reasonable to assume that one or more of them—

(b) if entered into independently of the other or others, would not have taken the same form or been on the same terms.
(9) If—
(a) at any time any of sections 148A to 148F has applied for determining the amounts to be taken into account in calculating the profits or losses of the trade, and
(b) conditions A to C are met at any subsequent time,
those amounts, and any other amounts which (as a result of this section) are to be so taken into account, are subject to such adjustments as are just and reasonable.
(10) All such assessments and adjustments of assessments are to be made as are necessary to give effect to subsection (9).

(a) the amount deducted in respect of amounts payable under the lease,
must not exceed
(b) the amounts which, in accordance with generally accepted accounting practice, fall (or would fall) to be shown in the person's accounts as finance charges , or interest expenses, in respect of the lease.
(3) If the lease is one which, under generally accepted accounting practice, falls (or would fall) to be treated as a loan, subsection (2) applies as if the lease were one which, under generally accepted accounting practice, fell to be treated as a finance lease.
148GA Lessee under long funding finance leases: right-of-use leases
(1) This section applies if—
(a) for the whole or part of any period of account, a person carrying on a trade, profession or vocation is the lessee of any plant or machinery under a right-of-use lease that is a long funding finance lease,
(b) there is a change in the amounts payable under the lease, and
(c) as a result of the change and in accordance with generally accepted accounting practice—
(i) a remeasurement of the lease liability is shown in the person's accounts for the period of account, or
(ii) a deduction is shown in those accounts other than as an interest expense under the lease or an amount of depreciation, or an impairment, in respect of the right-of-use asset arising from the lease.
(2) In calculating the profits of the person's trade, vocation or profession for the period of account, the amount deducted in respect of amounts payable under the lease (after taking account of any limitation as a result of section 148G) is to be increased or decreased so as to take account of the remeasurement or deduction mentioned in subsection (1)(c).
(3) No adjustment is to be made under subsection (2) if the remeasurement or deduction results in the person being treated by section 70D of CAA 2001 (long funding finance lease: additional expenditure: allowances for lessee) as having incurred further capital expenditure on the provision of the plant or machinery.
148H Lessee under long funding finance lease: termination
(1) This section applies where—
(a) a person carrying on a trade, profession or vocation is or has been the lessee under a long funding finance lease, and
(b) in connection with the termination of the lease, a payment calculated by reference to the termination value falls to be made to the person.
(2) The payment is not to be brought into account in calculating the profits of the person for any period of account.
(3) Subsection (2) does not affect the amount of any disposal value that falls to be brought into account by the person under CAA 2001.
(1) This section applies for the purpose of calculating the profits of a person carrying on a trade, profession or vocation for a period of account in which the person is the lessee of any plant or machinery under a long funding operating lease.
(2) The deductions that may be allowed in calculating the profits of the person for the period of account are to be reduced in accordance with the following provisions of this section.
(3) The amount of the reduction for any period of account is to be determined as follows.
(4) First, find the “relevant value” for the purposes of subsection (6)(a), which is—
(a) the market value of the plant or machinery at the commencement of the term of the lease, unless paragraph (b) applies;
(b) if the lessee—
(i) owns the plant or machinery as a result of having incurred expenditure on its provision for purposes other than those of a qualifying activity, but
(ii) brings the plant or machinery into use for the purposes of a qualifying activity on or after 1st April 2006,
the lower of first use market value and first use amortised market value.
(5) In subsection (4)—
“first use amortised market value” means the value that the plant or machinery would have—
at the time when it is first brought into use for the purposes of the qualifying activity, but
on the assumption that the market value of the plant or machinery at the commencement of the term of the lease had been written off on a straight line basis over the remaining useful economic life of the plant or machinery;
“first use market value” means the market value of the plant or machinery at the time when it is first brought into use for the purposes of the qualifying activity.
(6) From—
(a) the relevant value determined in accordance with subsection (4),
subtract
(b) the amount which, at the commencement of the term of the lease, is (or, in a case falling within subsection (4)(b), would have been) expected to be the market value of the plant or machinery at the end of the term of the lease,
to find the expected gross reduction over the term of the lease.
(7) Apportion the amount of that expected gross reduction to each period of account in which any part of the term of the lease falls.
(8) The apportionment must be on a time basis according to the proportion of the term of the lease that falls in each period of account.
(9) The amount of the reduction for any period of account is the amount so apportioned to that period.
(1) This section has effect for the interpretation of this Chapter.
(2) In this Chapter—
“qualifying activity” has the same meaning as in Part 2 of CAA 2001;
“residual value”, in relation to any plant or machinery leased under a long funding operating lease, means—
the estimated market value of the plant or machinery on a disposal at the end of the term of the lease,
less
the estimated costs of that disposal.
(3) Any reference in this Chapter to a sum being written off on a straight line basis over a period of time (the “writing-off period”) is a reference to—
(a) the sum being apportioned between each of the periods of account in which any part of the writing-off period falls,
(b) that apportionment being made on a time basis, according to the proportion of the writing-off period that falls in each of the periods of account, and
(c) the sum being written off accordingly.
(4) Chapter 6A of Part 2 of CAA 2001 (interpretation of that Part so far as relating to long funding leases) also applies for the purposes of this Chapter.
