Please can someone explain how I deal with the following issues: My main customer who I do lots of subcontract work for never issues me with CIS monthly statements. All of the invoices I send them usually are a mixture of mainly labour and some materials. Here's an example of one of my invoices; Labour...

Hi guys, I was hoping someone could just give me a bit of help! We don't currently submit p11ds as we have the exemption, however we may need to change things soon due to the company expanding fairly quickly.

I have just learnt that an employee of one of my clients has gone to prison for two years. I have not paid him for the past four weeks as no time sheets were submitted. My question is does he stay on the payroll and accrue holiday but does not get paid or do I issue a P45 and we part company or is this unfair dis...

Hi there I have a client who imports from Europe, normally the supplier invoice is zero rated. However, he is buying from Norway, apparently as they are not in the EU they have to charge vat, and we have to reclaim directly from Norway. I have looked into it, we have to submit a form, original invoice an...

Hi I understand you "shouldn't" effectively make any profit from the Flat Rate VAT scheme, but of course there is a possibility of a difference. I currently account traditionally for the VAT, and manually calculate the flat rate VAT. I did this to keep an eye to make sure we are not making any huge loss....

Hi all Just wondering I know you can't claim VAT back on cars, due to the likeliness of personal use, however, is this possible on commercial vans, either outright purchase or leasing? What if there is personal use ie driving to/from home? Thanks Lyndsey

Hi all, In my previous posts I mentioned outsourcing any payroll work to a payroll provider as we do not intend to get involved in payroll work. Whilst searing for the right payroll provider, I have found that many are charging a high fee to set up auto enrollment for each employee. Circa £300- £400 per...

Hi, Im trying to find some info on HMRC website but cant find any thing, that gives me a simple answer (Surprise) If I was a property developer, buying houses for renovation, when they are revamped and ready to sell, would I have to add VAT onto the price?
