From HM Revenue & Customs · Life Assurance Manual

Consider a set of computations with the following figures:

DescriptionAmount
BLAGAB trade profit (BTP) of the period800,000
BLAGAB losses brought forward300,000
BLAGAB non-taxable distributions (BNTD)150,000
Income (I) calculated under steps 1 to 3 of FA12/S731,450,000
FA12/S104 example: adjusted amount of BLAGAB trade profits
BLAGAB trade profit800,000
losses b/f(300,000)
Shareholders’ share of BTND(75,000)
Adjusted amount of BLAGAB trade profits425,000

FA12/S105 example: shareholders’ share of BLAGAB non-taxable distributions

(BTP) 800,000 x (BNTD) 150,000 = 75,000

(BTND) 150,000 + (I) 1,450,000

Therefore the Shareholders’ share of BLAGAB non-taxable distributions in this example is 75,000.

FA12/S103 example: the policyholders’ share of the I-E profit

Where there is an I-E profit, a comparison is made between the I-E profit and the adjusted amount of BLAGAB trade profit for the period (see LAM06030) to calculate the policyholders’ share of the I-E profit (if any).

  • Scenario 1: if the company does not have a BLAGAB trade profit for that period, the policyholders’ share of the I-E profit is the whole of that profit;

  • Scenario 2: if the adjusted amount of a company’s BLAGAB trade profit is less than the I-E profit for the period, the difference between those amounts represents the policyholders’ share;

  • Scenario 3: if the adjusted amount of a company’s BLAGAB trade profit is equal to or more than the I-E profit for the period, there is no policyholders’ share.
