Offering a practical overview of income tax in the UK from one of the UK’s leading practitioners, Income Tax 2023/24 covers day-to-day issues frequently encountered by tax advisors, including those dealing with the legislation related to devolved taxes in Scotland and Wales.
This new edition has been updated throughout for 2023/24 income tax rates and allowances introduced by Finance (No.2) Act and the Budget (Scotland) Act 2023. The commentary is clearly structured with ‘signposts’ at the beginning of each chapter to summarise key topics and ‘focus points’ throughout to highlight the important issues, as well as numerous worked examples to demonstrate how to apply the main principles in practice.
