    ACCA · Question 24 · Income tax and NIC liabilities

    Section B - Case 2 (GreenRoots LLP)

    GreenRoots LLP purchased a diesel car (CO2 emissions 110g/km) for £20,000. Sarah uses this car 60% for partnership business and 40% for private use.

    How are the capital allowances for this car calculated in the partnership's tax computation?

    Answer options:

    A.

    The car is placed in a single asset pool. The WDA is calculated at 18% and then restricted to 60%.

    B.

    The car is placed in the main pool (18% WDA). No restriction is made for private use in the partnership computation.

    C.

    The car is placed in the special rate pool (6% WDA) and restricted to 60%.

    D.

    The car qualifies for 100% First Year Allowances.

    How to approach this question

    Determine the correct pool based on CO2 emissions (110g/km > 50g/km = main pool). Remember the special rule for partnerships: assets owned by the partnership do not have capital allowances restricted for a partner's private use.

    Full Answer

    B.The car is placed in the main pool (18% WDA). No restriction is made for private use in the partnership computation.✓ Correct
    .

    Common mistakes

    Restricting the capital allowance for private use (which only applies to sole traders/employees, not partnership-owned assets) or using the wrong emission threshold.
