Section 793: Calculating the amount of income treated as received
2329.This section specifies how the amount of income treated as received by the previous section is to be calculated. It is based on section 75 of FA 2005.
2330.The basic proposition is that the amount is the reduction in the individual’s contribution to the firm resulting from the application of the regulations. Nevertheless, the amount of income treated as received cannot exceed the amount of post‑1 December 2004 trade losses claimed (and not reclaimed). Neither can it exceed the excess of the trade losses claimed (and not reclaimed) over the contribution to the firm.
2331.There is a change from “contribution to the trade” in the source legislation to “contribution to the firm”. See the overview commentary on Chapter 3 of Part 4 (restrictions on relief for certain partners) and Change 16 in Annex 1.
