Companies are liable to corporation tax on their taxable total profits (TTP). Companies do not pay capital gains tax, but instead the chargeable gains made on disposal of capital assets held by a company attract a corporation tax liability by being added to TTP.

The definition of ‘profits’ includes the following most common items which are covered in more detail below:

  1. •

    trading income

  2. •

    chargeable gains

  3. •

    dividends which are not exempt

  4. •

    non-trading loan relationship income

  5. •

    property business income

  6. •

    overseas income

  7. •

    miscellaneous income
