and Valuation Briefng

RICS South East Rural Update
2014
Inheritance tax
Is Woodland:
1. A Business Asset?
2. Agricultural Property?
3. None of the above?
Woodland as a Business
Asset
• Business Property Relief
– Not investment business
(Balfour)

• How to demonstrate
Business Nature?
Woodland as agricultural
property
• Agricultural Property
Relief
– Nature of ‘agricultural
property’
– ‘with’ and ‘ancillary’

• ‘Agricultural Value’
None of the Above
• Woodlands Relief
– Prairie Value – the custom
and practice
– What the IHTA 1984 (s125)
says
An example
10 acre woodland,
broadleaf, Home
Counties, vacant
possession
Various scenarios
Values
•
•
•
•

Freehold market value £70,000
Agricultural value £40,000
Prairie value £15,000
Value of trees and underwood £20,000
BPR
• Claim at 100% of MV
• Nil IHT
APR
• Claim at 100% of Agricultural Value
(£40,000)
• BPR on balance (£30,000)
• Nil IHT
• BPR not available? IHT on £30,000, ie
£12,000
Woodlands Relief (1)
• Value to Prairie Value
• IHT due on £15,000 @ 40% = £6,000
• Further IHT on subsequent sale of
timber (if ever)
Woodlands Relief (2)
Literal interpretation
• Market Value – Timber and underwood
value
• £70,000 - £20,000 = £50,000
• IHT on £50,000 @ 40% = £20,000
No claim for relief
• Market Value at 40% IHT
• £28,000
One wood
Five different IHT scenarios
•
•
•
•
•

No relief: £28,000
Literal Woodland Relief: £20,000
Prairie Value Woodland Relief: £6,000
APR but no BPR: £12,000
Full BPR and/or APR: Nil
The striking impact of Amenity
Value
Timber and Underwood

The rest: Amenity Value?

Prairie Value

Where does
this go?
Capital gains tax
Commercial Woodland and
CGT
•
•
•
•
•

TCGA 1992, s250
Managed
Occupier
Commercial Basis
View to realisation of profits
 Value of trees is excluded
How?
• TCGA  silent

• VOA Manual  ‘just and reasonable
basis’
Our example wood again
•
•
•
•

Just sold for £70,000
Acquired for £30,000
Value of standing timber £20,000
Prairie value £15,000
One approach
• Deduct timber value from MV
– £70,000 - £20,000 = £50,000
– Apply same ratio to base cost = £21,500
– Gain therefore £28,500
– CGT at 28% £7,980
Another approach
• Divide the synergistic amenity value
– Prairie value:standing timber: 15:20
– Applied to £70,000 - £40,000 is timber
value; therefore £30,000 for land
– Base cost on same basis: £12,900
– Chargeable Gain therefore £17,100
– CGT at 28%: £4,788
Non commercial
• CGT on full gain
• £70,000 - £30,000 = £40,000
• £40,000 gain at 28% CGT = £11,200
So 3 potential CGT bills
• £7,980
• £4,788
• £11,200
The moral of this story
MAKE IT AND
KEEP IT
COMMERCIAL

AND be
able to
prove it!

  • 12. Woodlands Relief (2) Literal interpretation • Market Value – Timber and underwood value • £70,000 - £20,000 = £50,000 • IHT on £50,000 @ 40% = £20,000
  • 13. No claim for relief • Market Value at 40% IHT • £28,000
  • 14. One wood Five different IHT scenarios • • • • • No relief: £28,000 Literal Woodland Relief: £20,000 Prairie Value Woodland Relief: £6,000 APR but no BPR: £12,000 Full BPR and/or APR: Nil
  • 15. The striking impact of Amenity Value Timber and Underwood The rest: Amenity Value? Prairie Value Where does this go?
  • 17. Commercial Woodland and CGT • • • • • TCGA 1992, s250 Managed Occupier Commercial Basis View to realisation of profits  Value of trees is excluded
  • 18. How? • TCGA  silent • VOA Manual  ‘just and reasonable basis’
  • 19. Our example wood again • • • • Just sold for £70,000 Acquired for £30,000 Value of standing timber £20,000 Prairie value £15,000
  • 20. One approach • Deduct timber value from MV – £70,000 - £20,000 = £50,000 – Apply same ratio to base cost = £21,500 – Gain therefore £28,500 – CGT at 28% £7,980
  • 21. Another approach • Divide the synergistic amenity value – Prairie value:standing timber: 15:20 – Applied to £70,000 - £40,000 is timber value; therefore £30,000 for land – Base cost on same basis: £12,900 – Chargeable Gain therefore £17,100 – CGT at 28%: £4,788
  • 22. Non commercial • CGT on full gain • £70,000 - £30,000 = £40,000 • £40,000 gain at 28% CGT = £11,200
  • 23. So 3 potential CGT bills • £7,980 • £4,788 • £11,200
  • 24. The moral of this story MAKE IT AND KEEP IT COMMERCIAL AND be able to prove it!
