TQOTW: ENTREPRENEUR’S’ RELIEF

We recently received a question to the advice lines regarding a family company and the availability of entrepreneur’s’ relief (ER) with regard to different classes of shares in issue.
A total of 11,000 shares are in issue made up of A and B shares. Mother and father own 10,000 A shares and their adult child owns the other 1,000 B shares.

The A shares have full voting rights, full dividend and full rights on disposal of the company. The B shares have full voting rights, full dividend and no rights on disposal of the company.
