Implement logic for capital gains taxation #40
Comments
Will SPI enable us to impute this? Hate to cite Statista, but apparently it's 10bn pounds/year: https://www.statista.com/statistics/284309/united-kingdom-hmrc-tax-receipts-capital-gains-tax/ And since it's only taxed at 20% for high earners, and represents a disproportionate income share among that group, it could be a significant part of the additional progressivity from applying the SPI adjustment. |
Shoot!
Is there any dataset with capital gains? Edit: let's discuss data in nikhilwoodruff/frs#12. |
This won't have a real effect because the FRS doesn't have capital gains data (per #11 (comment)), but could implement to have it.
Here are the rates: https://www.gov.uk/capital-gains-tax/rates
With stamp duties and inheritance taxes, it represents 5% of tax revenue (1/9 of income tax + NI): https://www.ifs.org.uk/publications/9178
