Hi,
Capital Gains tax is a separate tax to Inheritance Tax. Both taxes may be payable depending on the size of the estate and the gains from the disposal of the property.
To work out the acquisition cost will have 2 calculations. As there are 2 beneficiaries, they each should work out 25% of the probate value when your father died and 25% of the probate value when your mother died. This will give each beneficiary a value for 50% of the property. This should be deducted from 50% of the disposal value to work out if there is a gain. if, after deducting costs and the annual exempt allowance, there is still a gain, this is taxable and should be reported and the tax paid within 60 days of the completion date.
There is a capital gains calcuator below which leads on to registering for a capital gains account, to report and pay the tax due:

Thank you.
