Capital Gains Tax 10 - Do you want to use the computation worksheet for any of your disposals

The worksheet is for simple calculations of gains or losses and can be used for the disposal of land or other assets. You can also use it for the disposal of shares but only if it is the disposal of the whole of your holding of a particular class of shares.

You will not be able to use the worksheet in all cases. For example:

Choose 'Yes' if you want to use the worksheet for one or more of your asset disposals, you can complete a maximum of 20 worksheets, otherwise, choose 'No'.

Any details of gains or losses on disposals for which Business Asset Disposal Relief (previously Entrepreneurs' Relief) has been claimed must be included as 'Other property, assets and gains'.

If you use a computation worksheet this will automatically be added as an attachment to your return and information from the worksheet will be included in your Capital Gains summary details which you will see later.

You will also have the opportunity later to include summary details of any disposals that are not included in a worksheet. Computations of those disposals must then be provided either in the additional information section at the end of the Capital Gains section or as an attachment to your return.
