Solution - Depreciable assets formulae (par 30(4)) (cont.)








      The depreciable proceeds formula should be used to determine the

      proceeds that relate to the period before 1 October 2001:













      Next, the TAB cost is determined using the depreciable TAB formula:













      The total base cost is the TAB cost (R44), plus the expenditure

      incurred after valuation date (R200 – 100) = R144.


      The capital gain on the disposal using the TAB cost will be R356; ie

      ((R700 – 200) – R144).
