Software Enhancements
Securities making interest payment in addition to dividend payments
It has been brought to our attention that some securities e.g., 3i Infrastructure a Jersey registered FTSE350 company has been making dividend and interest payments. The payments were being reported in CGT & Dividend scheduling as dividend payments.
For 2021/22 and future years, it is now possible for the program to show both interest and dividends on a foreign stock. This can be seen on 3i Infrastructure.
Quality Improvements
ITS 64022 - Pooling of securities where the gains are liable to Income Tax
For relevant securities (those where the gains are liable to IT and also securities subject to AIS) S106A was incorrectly applied in priority to S105. This has been amended for 2021/22 onwards. After the change, part disposals of holdings that were acquired at different times are matched with acquisitions in the following order:
- Same Day
- Acquisitions within the 30 day period following the disposal.
- Other earlier acquisitions made at any time on a last in first out (LIFO) basis.
Where a taxpayer has the following purchase pattern on a stock:
Purchase/Acquisition |
Sale/Disposal |
||
Number |
Date |
Number |
Date |
12,000 |
6 April 2021 |
9,500 |
10 June 2021 |
The matching of the sale of shares/units is as follows:
Purchase/Acquisition |
Sale/Disposal |

Matched |
Date |

12,000 |

6 April 2021 |

If the sale had been for 16,000 shares/units on 10 June 2021, the matching is
Purchase/Acquisition |
