Everyone's Favourite subject im sure :) Do you have to send a letter to employees informing them that because their wages are below the threshold, the company doesn't have to introduce Auto enrolment? If so, does anyone have a template? Many Thanks Stuart

It's been a long and complicated affair but my client lived in Sweden up until 2006. He then moved to England and the Swedish Tax Authorities have issued a tax demand for 2009. He appealed at the time but bungled by appealing on the wrong grounds. He is neither Swedish or English which didn't help. I go...

Rookie question. The guy I work for has just submitted his expenses for July, but one of his receipts (for subsistence) is just a credit card receipt as opposed to a VAT receipt. Can I put this through on T1 (Sage) or does it have to be T9 as I don't have a VAT number/details?

Hi I have a client who has just set up receiving payment via Paypal, but to offset the costs has agreed to charge clients 4% to pay via this method (they are mainly a business to business).

Hello Is there a correct way to calculate how much salary to deduct for a sick day? Should calendar days be used or working days? This is not for SSP, it's just one day that has been missed and the company does not want to pay the employee for that day. Thanks.

I am aware that you can write off the balance of a pool once it goes below £1000, but do you have to do it once it does. Client has £550 in the pool (machinery) that I did nothing with last year as the business started late Feb 15 and that was brought forward. There's no tax to pay 15/16 so can I write down £99 th...

I was going through the receipts for a client today, to input for producing a VAT return. It appears said client has been putting their hand down the back of the sofa. Several crumpled receipts from December/Jan/Feb. But the best one was a £3.50 spend from August 2009!!!
