Description

Provides a reference point for practitioners, who may need to prepare or review a valuation of shares or intangible assets, and acts as a practical guide to the more straightforward valuations which are required for tax purposes.

Practical Share Valuation combines decades of the authors' practical experience in order to provide a reference guide to the valuation of unquoted shares and intangible assets as well as a practical handbook for practitioners preparing more routine valuations for tax purposes.

The book highlights the relevant case law relating to valuations and also provides a handy list of additional data sources to aid the valuer in gaining access to the comparator data and latest valuation standards available.

Whether you need to prepare a valuation or review work prepared by another practitioner, this book provides a wealth of easily accessible information, hints and tips to help you navigate through the potential minefield of share valuations.

- Full analysis of new legislation proposed on bringing non-resident companies with UK taxable income and gains from the disposal of UK residential property interests within the scope of corporation tax;

- Commentary on several well-publicised litigation battles regarding failed tax avoidance schemes, such as HMRC vs Ingenious Media and HMRC vs Rangers Football Club;
- Changes to the Companies Act 2006 and new reporting requirements as a result of the transition to FRS 102 and FRS 105 (effective for accounting periods on or after 1 January 2016);
