ACAguy wrote: » Update on the classes cancelled by the snow. Finance 1 & 2. Will not be rescheduled we are now required to watch it online. The current online lecture in relation to this was uploaded 3 years ago which is a joke. Cross Marking 1 & 2 Will be held on the 15th April which in my opinion is ridiculous as it's the last full non work day before all of our interim assessment. I also asked them to uploaded Tax Elective 3 &4 to be watched online as I missed the class on 18th February and they have yet to do so. Is everyone agreed that it takes them so long to do anything?

Mckay66 wrote: » Ya not too bad,i have read most of the chapters and trying to get through as many questions as I can from now til the exam How are you finding it? One thing that's confusing me- Say for example in case study 10 Angela O'Neill. It states that Angela owns the shops out of which her business trades (which I take this as she owns them personally), yet in the solution in order for her to incorporate her business (and claim Sec.600) she must also transfer these premises. Now I know one of the conditions of sec.600 is she must transfer all of the business assets but why is this if she owns the premises personally, are these not seperate to the assets of the sole trade? Hope this isn't confusing!

Recommended 10 years at retail if they could get such a lease (NPV 5 years ~Breakeven per store vs £100,000 per store at 10 years). The last 2 indicators were very much scenario specific so notes weren't of much use I thought.
