Valuation date
1 Oct 2001
Base cost of pre-valuation date assets
• Asset acquired before valuation date
• Historical cost: R100
• Sold for: R700
• Capital gain is R600 (R700 – R100)
• A portion of the gain of R600 refers to the pre-valuation date period
and is not subject to CGT,
• but a portion of this gain of R600 refers to the post-valuation date
period and is therefore subject to CGT.
• How should one determine which part of the R600 is subject to
CGT?
