We waited worryingly for this budget, well I did after all the rumours and speculation e.g., taxing the reserves of limited companies which has not happened. And arguably Rishi Sunak’s second Coronavirus budget seems to mainly be supportive, at least for now.
With different rules for Limited Companies and sole traders, flat rates for simplified accounting, cash accounting, accruals accounting and restrictions on property businesses depending on the type it’s not surprising that business owners get confused about what counts for an expense and what doesn’t in their particular business.
We can all earn a £1,000 per tax year from trading without worrying about a tax return but some social media businesses are so successful so quickly that their owners who are often inexperienced in the tax implications, are swept along with the momentum and before they know it they have responsibilities but not the knowhow, time or possibly even awareness to deal with the them.
