Step 2 (identify the amount of visual effects expenditure) Determine how much of the result of Step 1 is relevant visual effects expenditure. Step 3 (determine the extent to which the 80% cap applied) Determine the amount (if any) of the excess to be deducted at Step 3 in section 1179CA(1) for the most recent accounting period for which a claim for Chapter 3 credit was made (which may be the claim period). If that amount is nil go to Step 4, otherwise go to Step 5.

Step 5 (treat the 80% cap as affecting the VFX portion first) Subtract the result of Step 3 from the result of Step 2.If the result is nil or less, the adjusted VFX portion is nil. If not, go to Step 6. Step 6 (calculate the adjusted VFX portion, taking account of the 80% cap) If this Step applies, the adjusted VFX portion is the amount given by multiplying the result of Step 5 by 0.34.”

(9) For the purposes of this paragraph, and paragraphs 3A and 4, an individual is a qualifying individual in a tax year if the individual- (a) is UK resident for the purposes of income tax and capital gains tax for that tax year, and (b) was subject to the remittance basis for at least one tax year (being a tax year before the tax year 2025-26).”

(2) But where the value in question is the value of an asset, no adjustments for impairment are to be made to it. (3) Where the impaired value of an asset recorded in the underlying profits accounts for any accounting period is less than the substituted value of the asset for that period, use the value from the underlying profits accounts instead for that period and all subsequent periods (and subsection (2) does not apply in relation to that value)."

(a) there is at least one other member of the group—
(i) that is not a flow-through entity,
(ii) that is located in that territory, and
(iii) to whom a proportion of the underlying profits of the flow-through entity for the accounting period are allocated under section 168 (underlying profits of transparent entities) or, where the underlying profits of the entity are nil or less, would be so allocated if the flow-through entity had underlying profits of 100 euros, or
(b) the entity—
(i) is a flow-through entity to some extent for that period as a result of section 169 (certain non tax resident entities to be treated as flow-through entities),
(ii) is not a flow-through entity to some extent for that period, and
(iii) was created in that territory.
(2) Section 196 applies for the purposes of determining a flow-through payroll amount of a flow-through entity for a territory as it applies for the purposes of determining eligible payroll costs but as if—
(a) any reference in that section to the territory of the member were to the territory to which the flow-through payroll amount relates, and
(b) subsection (7) of that section were omitted.
(3) Where a member of a multinational group that is a flow-through entity has a flow-through payroll amount for a territory for an accounting period, the eligible payroll costs of each member of the group falling within subsection
(1)(a)
for that period (which may be nil) are to be increased by the amount given by multiplying the flow-through payroll amount by the relevant proportion in relation to that member for that period.
(4) The relevant proportion in relation to a member for an accounting period is the proportion of the underlying profits of the flow-through entity for that period—
(a) in a case where the flow-through entity has underlying profits that exceed nil for that period, that is allocated to that member under section 168, or
(b) in a case where the underlying profits of the flow-through entity for that period are nil or less, that would be allocated to that member if the flow-through entity had underlying profits of 100 euros.
(5) Where a flow-through entity—

the eligible payroll costs of that entity for that period (which may be nil) are to be increased by the amount given by multiplying that flow-through payroll amount by the relevant proportion in relation to that entity for that period.

(a) there is at least one other member of the group—
(i) that is not a flow-through entity,
(ii) that is located in that territory, and

(a) any reference in those sections to the territory of the member were to the territory to which the flow-through tangible asset amount relates, and
(b) subsection (10) of section 197 were omitted.
(3) Where a member of a multinational group that is a flow-through entity has a flow-through tangible asset amount for a territory for an accounting period, the eligible tangible asset amount of each member of the group falling within subsection
(1)(a)
for that period (which may be nil) is to be increased by the amount given by multiplying the flow-through tangible asset amount by the relevant proportion in relation to that member for that period.
(4) The relevant proportion in relation to a member for an accounting period is the proportion of the underlying profits of the flow-through entity for that period—
(a) in a case where the flow-through entity has underlying profits that exceed nil for that period, that is allocated to that member under section 168, or
(b) in a case where the underlying profits of the flow-through entity for that period are nil or less, that would be allocated to that member if the flow-through entity had underlying profits of 100 euros.
(5) Where a flow-through entity—
(a) is a flow-through entity to some extent for an accounting period as a result of section 169,
(b) is not a flow-through entity to some extent for that period, and
(c) was created in a territory for which it has a flow-through tangible asset amount for that period,
the eligible tangible asset amount of that entity for that period (which may be nil) is to be increased by the amount given by multiplying that flow-through tangible asset amount by the relevant proportion in relation to that entity for that period.
(6) The relevant proportion in relation to that entity for an accounting period is the proportion of the underlying profits of the entity for that period—
(a) in a case where the entity has underlying profits that exceed nil for that period, that are not allocated to any other entity under section 168, or
(b) in a case where the underlying profits of the entity for that period are nil or less, that would not be allocated to any other entity under that section if the entity had profits of 100 euros.
(7) For the purposes of applying this section in relation to a multinational group whose ultimate parent is a flow-through entity, the ultimate parent is to be treated as not being a flow-through entity.
198ZC Eligible payroll costs and eligible tangible asset amount: flow-through ultimate parent
(1) In determining for an accounting period the eligible payroll costs or eligible tangible asset amount of a flow-through entity that is the ultimate parent of a multinational group, the amount given by section 196 or 197 is to be reduced by the section 170 proportion.
(2) In subsection (1), “the section 170 proportion” means the proportion of the adjusted profits of the flow-through entity for the accounting period that—
(a) in a case where subsection (1) of 170 (adjustments for ultimate parent that is a flow-through entity) applies, is excluded under that subsection, or
(b) in a case where that subsection does not apply as a result of the entity having not made a profit for that period, would be excluded under that subsection if the entity had adjusted profits of 100 euros.
(3) In subsection (2), “the adjusted profits” means the adjusted profits before the application of section 170.”


Explanatory Text
