My company have an approved save as you earn share scheme in operation. As far as I can figure out when the options are granted the tax situation is:
Say
option to buy share at price of €50 discounted from €60
cost/price at time option is exercised is €80
shares are sold for €90 at some later date
then
Pay USC and PRSI on €30 (€80 - €50)
Pay CGT on €40 (€90 - €50)
Is this right?
And when do they have to paid? USC and PRSI at the end of the savings period and CGT when the shares are sold?
Thanks
