4 2. You are a tax manager in a firm of accountants that advises ABC plc, the UK incorporated and tax resident parent company of a pharmaceutical group listed on the FTSE 250 index with operations in the UK, the US, Germany and the Netherlands. You are currently assisting ABC plc in undertaking due diligence on a prospective acquisition of the CDE group, a Private Equity backed group that develops and markets cancer drugs. It is proposed that ABC plc will acquire CDE Ltd, the parent company of the CDE group, on 31 December The CDE group structure is set out below with the jurisdiction of incorporation and tax residency of each subsidiary company stated. All the subsidiaries are wholly owned. All companies in the ABC group and CDE group prepare accounts to 31 December annually. CDE Ltd FGH AG (Switzerland) IJK Ltd (UK) LMN GmbH (Germany) OPQ Ltd (UK) You have been provided with the following information about the CDE group: 1) CDE Ltd is the holding company of the group and does not carry on a trade nor has any other source of income. Until 1 January 2015, all Board meetings took place in the Isle of Man. Since then there have been six Board meetings, all of which took place in London. From 1 January 2015 to 31 December 2016, CDE Ltd incurred interest expense of US $65 million (50 million) per annum on a loan from the Private Equity investor that was repaid on 31 December CDE Ltd has the US Dollar as its functional currency. 2) On 1 November 2017, CDE Ltd disposed of a 5% shareholding in Drug Smart Inc, a US incorporated and tax resident drug manufacturing company. The sale proceeds were US $97.5m (75 million) and CDE Ltd acquired the shares for US $58.5m (45 million) on 30 June This shareholding was CDE Ltd s sole investment in Drug Smart Inc. 3) FGH AG owns all the group s intellectual property (consisting of drug patents). A large proportion of the group s management and employees are employed by the company and work at its office in Geneva. FGH AG pays corporate tax in Switzerland at a rate of 8%. It had taxable profits of 20 million for the year ended 31 December 2015 and 50 million for the year ended 31 December ) IJK Ltd and LMN GmbH conduct all sales activity in the UK and Germany, respectively, on behalf of FGH AG. Each company has a service agreement with FGH AG that guarantees each will make an annual profit equal to 5% of costs incurred. Any profit exceeding 5% of costs is paid as a quarterly management fee to FGH AG. Conversely, where an insufficient profit or a loss arises for quarter, FGH AG will make a payment to compensate the companies for not achieving the agreed level of profits (and hence ensuring that they do). 5) OPQ Ltd manufactures cancer drugs. This has been funded by various share issues to CDE Ltd. OPQ Ltd pays royalties to FGH AG for the use of patents. IJK Ltd and LMN GmbH acquire the drugs from OPQ Ltd at cost plus a markup of 2%.

Both companies have made quarterly instalment payments relating to the year ending 31 December 2017 on the due dates and plan to make further payments on 14 January 2018 and 14 April Draft the UK section of the due diligence report for ABC plc explaining the Corporation Tax risks associated with the acquisition of CDE Ltd. You should assume that a company is tax resident in the Isle of Man if incorporated there and the UK/Isle of Man Double Taxation Agreement has no tie breaker clause for residency. (20) 3. You are a tax manager at PRJS Chartered Accountants. The firm has a longstanding client, Petersfield Enterprises plc, of which Jane Jenkins is the Finance Director. You are aware that Petersfield Enterprises plc is considering the acquisition of a privately owned, UK based trading group with some overseas subsidiaries, the Hammersmith group of companies. You received a phone call from Jane yesterday, in which she informed you that overall the Hammersmith group has a low effective tax rate. She is concerned that this low rate may be due to the Hammersmith group entering into various transactions, both within the UK and cross-border with its overseas subsidiaries, that have led to a mismatch in tax treatment, with tax deductions in one group company not being matched by taxable receivables in another group company. She is aware that there is a General Anti-Abuse Rule to counteract a tax advantage in certain circumstances and she would like to understand the scope and purpose of the rule and how they could potentially apply to the Hammersmith group. Prepare a briefing note for Jane Jenkins describing the scope and application of the General Anti-Abuse Rule to the acquisition of the Hammersmith group, including how any exposure may be addressed.

6 4. You are the in-house Tax Manager employed by Ramcourt plc, a listed company with subsidiary trading companies located in the UK and overseas, all of which have a 31 December year-end.

Michael Robins, the Group Finance Director, has informed you that as part of this programme of reorganisation, a building is to be sold. The building is currently owned by and used in the trade of Courtfoods Ltd. The building has potential for redevelopment as a leisure centre but planning permission must first be obtained. A developer, which is planning to sell a leisure centre to a national chain of gym operators, has made the following offer for the building: 1) Upfront cash consideration of 4 million payable on completion, which is expected to be 31 December ) Additional consideration of 500,000 when the developer applies for planning permission, which is expected to be no later than 31 December ) Additional consideration of 1.5 million if planning permission is granted. 4) If the purchaser develops the site into a leisure centre and sells it to a national chain of gym operators at a price exceeding 12 million, a contingent consideration is payable to Courtfoods Ltd, equal to 10% of the proceeds received above 12 million, capped at a maximum payment of 150,000. This right to receive the contingent consideration is currently valued at 70,000.

9 5.
