Doing it correctly is non-trivial. You have to submit a so called computation for each individual disposal, which can easily run into several pages.

The algorithm for working out the cost of a disposal is actually a pretty interesting test case for learning a new programming language or paradigm. Try implementing UK share identification rules in SQL for instance :)
