Paragraph 7 contains special provisions for chargeable periods that fall into different rate periods. It amends Step 7 of paragraph 6(2) as follows:
- Calculate the proportion of the chargeable period that falls into each rate period (as shown in the first column of the table above) as a percentage: P%
- For each rate period charge P% of the long term chargeable equity and liabilities at the bank levy rate shown in the second column.
- For each rate period charge P% of the short term chargeable equity and liabilities at the bank levy rate shown in the third column.
- Add together the results for each rate period that falls within the chargeable period to give the amount of the bank levy.
»Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp rules relating to chargeable periods starting before 1 January 2011 remain unaltered. Any part of the chargeable period starting before 1 January 2011 is ignored and the bank levy is calculated as if the chargeable period started on 1 January 2011.
Example: 12 month period of account ending 31 October 2016
Bank Z has long term chargeable equity and liabilities and short term chargeable liabilities, calculated to Step 5 of Paragraph 6(2), of £150bn and £375bn respectively. It is a 12 month period so Step 6 is skipped � See BKLM154600.
Rate period 1 April 2015 to 31 December 2015
»Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp long term rate is 0.105% and the short term rate is 0.21% for this rate period.
»Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp proportion (P%) of the chargeable period falling into this rate period is 25% (3 months - 1 October 2015 to 31 December 2015).
P% of the long term equity and liabilities is 25% x £150bn = £37.5bn. »Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp bank levy charge is therefore: 0.105% x £37.5bn = £39.375m
P% of the short term liabilities is 25% x £375bn = £93.75bn. »Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp bank levy charge is therefore: 0.21% x £93.75bn = £196.875m
Rate period 1 January 2016 to 31 December 2016
»Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp long-term rate is 0.09% and the short term rate is 0.18% for this rate period.
»Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp proportion (P%) of the chargeable period falling into this rate period is 75% (9 months - 1 January 2016 to 31 October 2016).
P% of the long term equity and liabilities is 75% x £150bn = £112.5bn. »Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp bank levy charge is therefore: 0.09% x £112.5bn = £101.25m
P% of the short term liabilities is 75% x £375bn = £281.25bn. »Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp bank levy charge is therefore: 0.18% x £281.25bn = £506.25m
»Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp total bank levy chargeable for the chargeable period is therefore:
£39.375m + £196.875m + £101.25m + £506.25m = £843.75m
Example: 15 month period of account ending 31 March 2016
Bank X has long term chargeable equity and liabilities and short term chargeable liabilities, calculated to Step 5 of Paragraph 6(2), of £200bn and £300bn respectively.
As it is a 15 month period, the chargeable equity and liabilities are adjusted to take account of the longer period by Step 6 of Paragraph 6(2) � See BKLM154600.
£250bn of long term liabilities adjusted for the purposes of Step 6.
£375bn of short term liabilities adjusted for the purposes of Step 6.

»Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp proportion (P%) of the chargeable period falling into this rate period is 20% (3 months - 1 January 2015 to 31 March 2015).
P% of the long term equity and liabilities is 20% x £250bn = £50bn. »Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp bank levy charge is therefore: 0.078% x £50bn = £39m
P% of the short term liabilities is 20% x £375bn = £75bn. »Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp bank levy charge is therefore: 0.156% x £75bn = £117m
Rate period 1 April 2015 to 31 December 2015
»Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp long term rate is 0.105% and the short term rate is 0.21% for this rate period.
»Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp proportion (P%) of the chargeable period falling into this rate period is 60% (9 months - 1 April 2015 to 31 December 2015).
P% of the long term equity and liabilities is 60% x £250bn = £150bn. »Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp bank levy charge is therefore: 0.105% x £150bn = £157.5m
P% of the short term liabilities is 60% x £375bn = £225bn. »Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp bank levy charge is therefore: 0.21% x £225bn = £472.5m

»Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp long term rate is 0.09% and the short term rate is 0.18% for this rate period.
»Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp proportion (P%) of the chargeable period falling into this rate period is 20% (3 months - 1 January 2016 to 31 March 2016).
P% of the long term equity and liabilities is 20% x £250bn = £50bn. »Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp bank levy charge is therefore: 0.09% x £50bn = £45m
P% of the short term liabilities is 20% x £375bn = £75bn. »Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp bank levy charge is therefore: 0.18% x £75bn = £135m
»Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp total bank levy chargeable for the chargeable period is therefore:
£39m + £117m + £157.5m + £472.5m + £45m + £135m = £966m
As the chargeable period is greater than 12 months the bank levy will be apportioned between and returned in more than one accounting period of the responsible entity - see BKLM431000.
