Can anyone more experienced at all this advise best place to post something that dear sales/marketing types do quite often at various times of year - i.e. buy a simple gift for a customer?
Nothing untoward, just a box of chocolates etc bought for a buyer at the customer for her Birthday - that sort of thing?
Would this go as "entertainment" and therefore not be allowed as an expense again CT, or could it go in a "Marketing/Sales Budget" and the costs be an allowable expense against CT?
Doesnt matter where you post it if is a box of chocolates for a customer then it is disallowed for tax purposes.
Would either post to entertainment so is automatically disallowed at the year end or to sundry expenses with a clear narrative as to what it is so your accountant knows to disallow it.
