I live in my mother's home, valued €450,000 & will inherit it as well a sum of c.€380,000. I know I will qualify for the exemption on the home, but will it be taken into account in calculating CAT or is it just the €380,000 which will be assessed i.e €380,000 - €335,000 Category A threshold?

Thank you. Sonny
 
It wouldn’t be exempt if it was taken into account…it’ll be (€380k - €335k) x 33%
 
To be a pedant, the calculation will be
Value of inheritence (450k + 380K)830K
less relief for home-450K
Taxable value380K
Less Cat A threshold-335K
Taxable45K
Tax at 33%15K

Value of inheritence
