In order not to set against future profits, I think there are two options
If you have enough= set off against other incomes during the period within the same CAP
If not set off against other incomes during the period within the same CAP and set the remainder against the prior period total PCTCT ......am I right?Michael Beech FMAAT CIMA Dip MA

Apologies, posted it too quickly first time.
i) The trading loss is £85,000
Profit before tax: £325,000
Plus:
entertaining customers £10,000
loan written off £5,000
increase in general provision of bd £10,000
Less:
other income except for discounts (£285,000)
capital allowances (£150,000)
Trading loss: (£85,000)
(ii)It could be offset against the current PCTCT. In this case the loss will reduce PCTCT from £285,000 (Other income) to 200,000.
If there is any loss left (not this case), it can be set against the PCTCT of the previous 12 months, then up to £50,000 of loss can be set against the PCTCT of the preceding two years
I am still revising and not felling vey confident before the exam yet...0
