IHTM25105 | Valuing the partnership interest: Agricultural land tenanted by a partnership

A partnership’s tenancy of agricultural land may have a substantial capital value, but quite often this value is not accounted for at all in the accounts. A clue to its existence will be a deduction for rent in the profit and loss account.

You will need to obtain full details of the tenancy from the taxpayer. These should include:

• the name of the landlord

• when the tenancy was granted

• what was the original rent

• what is the rent being paid now

• the length of the tenancy.

You should obtain a copy of any written agreement.

If a value is required you should follow the guidance at (IHTM24162).
