Divide, do not multiply

Sterling is the foreign amount divided by the rate in this table. Multiplying instead is wrong by the square of the rate, which on a typical dollar figure is more than half as much again.

HMRC do not prescribe which exchange rate you use. CG78310 expects a reasonable and consistent method. Where your broker gives the sterling amount you actually paid or received, we use it; otherwise we convert at HMRC's monthly rate for the month of each leg. What CG78310 does settle is the date: sterling worth is taken at the date of the acquisition or disposal (Bentley v Pike, Capcount Trading v Evans). This site never reads a rate from a market data feed.

Where this month came from

HMRC no longer serve August 2014. This is HMRC's own file for the month as The National Archives keeps it, read once and checked against the month it names:

https://webarchive.nationalarchives.gov.uk/ukgwa/20151202213715/http://www.hmrc.gov.uk/softwaredevelopers/rates/exrates-monthly-0814.xml

The collection that lists both is Exchange rates for customs and VAT on gov.uk. Nothing here is taken from a mirror. A rate comes from HMRC or it does not come at all.
