Details

Business and Agricultural Property Relief, 6th edition is a practical guide to the rules of inheritance tax relief for business, farm, woodland and heritage property. It examines both legislation and case law in detail, and provides worked examples to illustrate how principles of tax relief are applied in practice. Numerous references to HMRC guidance and Manuals are also included.

This book discusses everyday situations that are likely to be encountered in practice and provides guidance on compliance, along with tips for saving clients’ tax. Most importantly it contains numerous examples of pitfalls to avoid in this complex area of tax law.

It covers topics and questions such as:

How reliefs may be lost;
Valuable planning ideas;
Specific specialist subjects such as holiday lettings, horses, Lloyd’s underwriters, heritage maintenance funds and the treatment of royalties of deceased composers.
