In the most recent issue you'll find advice on...
Year 18 - issue 20 - 12.07.2018
LAND AND BUILDINGS TRANSACTION TAXLBTT - retroactive refundsA new law gives some couples the right to a refund if they purchased a home in Scotland and paid the additional land and buildings transaction tax (LBTT). What’s the full story? |
CAPITAL GAINS TAXHMRC’s real-time CGT service - how does it work?HMRC is promoting its online system for reporting capital gains and losses. It looks straightforward enough, but some tax advisors are saying that it’s not such a good idea to use it. Who should you believe, HMRC or the advisors? |
PROPERTY - LOSSESRental business losses - the overlooked reliefYour company rents its business premises from you. Last year you spent so much on replacement fittings in the building that the expenses outweighed the rent you received. What’s the most tax-efficient way to deal with this loss? |
CARSThe tax cost of higher mileage allowancesA few of your employees are complaining that the amount you pay for business journeys made in their personally owned cars hasn’t increased for a long time. If you pay them more than HMRC’s approved rates, what’s the tax and NI position? |
RETURNSThe latest on the “requirement to correct” rulesThe deadline for the new requirement to correct (RTC) rule is 30 September 2018, with very tough penalties if you don’t comply. RTC applies to “offshore matters”. What does this mean and should you be concerned? |
VATVAT and rewards for loyal customersTo drum up more business you want to create a points based loyalty scheme for your customers. You’ve decided on the terms and conditions for the scheme but the VAT consequences worry you. How should you tackle them? |
PROFIT EXTRACTIONRealising tax-free cash from your assetsYou need a little extra cash. You could take it from your company which has a healthy bank balance, but this usually means more tax and possibly NI. Is there a way to get cash from your company and avoid tax and NI altogether? |
PAYEEmployers - student loan changes ahead |
CORPORATION TAXNo more refund cheques or tax references |
