Hello there
I have asked about this by a friend of mine.
A private ltd company has trading losses b/f from last year of £50,000 on cessation of retail business.
This year the company has only "Rental Income" of £70,000 from commercial properties (this is the main business now).
Can the company offset b/f £50,000 of trading losses against rental income of £70,000 this year?
Regards

Hi there
If I can remember correctly, you can only carry back a terminal loss (S388 from memory). You can carry this back against the previous 5 years profits, but it cannot be carried forward - ie it dies with the business.
Someone else may well correct me - this is only from exams a wee few years ago now, and something that I have only ever come across once in real life!
