FINANCE ACT 1999. CORPORATION TAX STARTING RATE
- Where in any accounting period the profits of a qualifying company do not exceed the first relevant amount, the company may, instead of making a claim under section 13(1), claim that the corporation tax charged on its basic profits for that period shall be calculated as if the rate of corporation tax were such rate (to be known as the "corporation tax starting rate"), lower than the small companies' rate, as Parliament may from time to time determine. (2) Where in any accounting period the profits of a qualifying company exceed the first relevant amount but do not exceed the second relevant amount, the company may, instead of making a claim under section 13(1), claim that the corporation tax charged on its basic profits for that period shall be- (a) calculated as if the rate of corporation tax were the small companies' rate; and (b) then reduced by the sum specified in subsection (3) below.
