Theremaybeexceptions,particularlyiftheassetislandthathasbeencompulsorilypurchased.
Example 1The partnership sells a piece of land under an unconditional contract dated 2 April 2013. The land was conveyed to the purchaser on 2 May 2013. The disposal is treated as taking place on 2 April 2013. This date falls in the tax year ending on 5 April 2013 and you should return the disposal in the Partnership Tax Return for that year.
What are the disposal proceeds?Thetotalamountofdisposalproceedsmayinclude:•cashpayablenoworinthefuture,or•thevalueofanyassetreceivedinexchangefor

Example 2The partnership exchanges a piece of land worth £30,000 for a painting worth £33,000. The disposal proceeds of the land are £33,000, the value of the consideration received.

Example 3The partnership sells shares in a company in December 2012 for £50,000, plus a sum equal to 10% of the profits made by the company in the year ended 30 June 2012. You should begin the calculation by bringing in the £50,000 and the sum equal to the percentage of profits to which the partnership is entitled. The sum can be calculated by reference to the company accounts for the period ended 30 June 2012.

Whenthepartnershipreceivestheamountitisentitledto,therewillbeafurtherdisposalofthatright.
Example 4The partnership sells land for £40,000 and will also be entitled to receive 50% of any increase in the value of the land if the purchaser is able to obtain planning permission for a housing development. When the disposal is made you cannot know whether planning permission will be granted or what effect that will have on the value of the land. So you do not know how much the partnership will finally get. The disposal proceeds are £40,000 plus your estimate of the value of the right to receive more money.
Insomecircumstances,theamountthatthepartnershipistoreceiveistakentobethemarketvalueoftheassetithasdisposedof.

Example 5The partnership sells land worth £40,000 to the husband or wife or civil partner of a partner for £25,000. The disposal proceeds are £40,000, the market value.
What is meant by ‘market value’ and ‘connected persons’?

lessthantheircombinedvalue.Whencalculatingthegain,thevalueofeachseparateassetisreplacedbyaproportionofthetotalmarketvalueoftheassetsintheseries.Anydisposalwhichtookplacemorethansixyearsbeforethenextdisposalintheseriescanbeexcluded.
Example 6The partnership owns the freehold interest in a piece of land. That interest is worth £100,000.
Four years later the partnership grants the brother of one of the partners a lease over that land. The lease is worth £20,000.
The partnership then sells the brother the freehold reversion for its market value of £60,000. Because the freehold and the lease considered separately are worth less than the unrestricted freehold, the partnership has only realised a total of £80,000 in disposing of land worth £100,000. Because this was a series of transactions, the £20,000 the partnership got from the grant of the lease must be replaced by £25,000 in working out the gain.
The £60,000 which the partnership got for the freehold reversion must be replaced by £75,000 in working out any gain on that disposal.
