357UU Northern Ireland supplementary deduction: amount U.K.

(1) This section contains provision for the purposes of section 357UT(2) about the amount of the Northern Ireland supplementary deduction.

(2) If the accounting period falls within only one financial year, the amount of the Northern Ireland supplementary deduction is—

• Step 2 Multiply each amount calculated under step 1 by the proportion of the accounting period that falls within the financial year for which it is calculated.

• Step 3 Add together each amount found under step 2.
