    Re:PTC - Land

    The formula given in the Osborne book is:-

    Original cost of whole asset x A / (A + B)
    where A is the proceeds of the part disposed of and B is the market value of the part retained.

    e.g. Part disposal of land - If the sale proceeds are £3000, the value of the remaining land is £9000 and the original cost of the whole asset was £4000, the cost applicable to the part disposed of is:-

    £4000 x £3000/(£3000 + £9000) = £1000

    Hope this helps.
