BIM14045 - Schedule D: General principles

The UK Courts have been applying our Income Tax law since, broadly, the latter part of the nineteenth century. These decisions have produced case law which helps the application of the statute in similar situations. In addition, principles of wider application have evolved, some of which are discussed as follows:

Distinction between capital and revenue BIM14050
Meaning of “annual” profits or gains BIM14060
The source doctrine BIM14065
Meaning of “property whatsoever” BIM14070
