Question

On 6th April 2020, Tilda sold a freehold warehouse (BUILDING 2) for £265,000 which 
she had purchased on 10th March 2004 for £140,000. 
In the tax year 2004/5, Tilda made a claim to rollover the maximum possible gain into the 
base cost of BUILDING 2. This was after she sold an old office freehold (BUILDING 1) for 
£150,000 on 15th April 2004, (Tilda had acquired this building on 20th September 2000 for 
£120,000). 
Both buildings have always been used entirely for business purposes in the wholesale 
business Tilda runs as a sole trader. 
• Required: Calculate the net chargeable gain Tilda will be taxed on in 2020/21, on 
the disposal of BUILDING 2, assuming Tilda makes no other capital disposals in 
the tax year.
