3 Damian is the finance director of Linden Limited, a medium sized, unquoted, UK trading company, with a 31 Julyyear end. Damian personally owns 10% of the ordinary issued share capital of Linden Limited, for which he paid￡10,000 in June 1998. He estimates that the current market value of Linden Limited is ￡9 million and that thecompany will make taxable profits of ￡1·4 million in the forthcoming year to 31 July 2007.(a) Damian believes that Linden Limited should conduct its activities in a socially responsible manner and to thisend has proposed that in future all cars purchased by the company should be low emission vehicles. The salesdirector has stated that several of his staff, who are the main recipients of company cars, other than the directors,are extremely unhappy with this proposal, perceiving it as downgrading their value and status.The cars currently provided to the sales staff have a list price of ￡19,600, on which Linden Limited receives abulk purchase discount of 6% from the dealer, and a CO2 emission rate of 168 grams/kilometre. The companypays for up to ￡400 of accessories, of the salesmen’s own choice to be fitted to the cars and all of the runningcosts, including private petrol. The cars are replaced every three years and the ‘old’ cars are sold at auction,because they are high mileage vehicles.The low emission cars it is proposed to purchase will have the same list price as the current cars, but the dealeris only prepared to offer a bulk discount of 5% on these vehicles. Damian does not propose to make any otherchanges to Linden Limited’s company car policy or practice.Required:(i) Explain the tax consequences of the proposed move to low emission vehicles for both the individualsalesmen and Linden Limited, illustrating your answer by means of relevant calculations of the tax andnational insurance (NIC) savings arising.

Peter is now demanding that the tax deducted from his director’sfees, for the board meetings held on 18 April and 16 May 2006, be refunded, on the grounds that, as he is nolonger resident in the UK, he is no longer liable to UK income tax. All of the company’s board meetings are heldat its offices in Cambridge.Despite Peter’s assurance that none of the other companies of which he is a director has disputed his change oftax status, Damian is uncertain whether he should make the refunds requested. However, as Peter is a friend ofthe company’s founder, Linden Limited’s managing director is urging him to do so, stating that if the tax doeshave to be paid, then Linden Limited could always bear the cost.Required:Advise Damian whether Peter is correct in his assertion regarding his tax position and in the case that thereis a UK tax liability the implications of the managing director’s suggestion.
