A director who does not receive any other monies from the Company is to attend a seminar for the company whilst on holiday. He has split the cost of his flights into to/from his holiday destination and the internal flights to attend the seminar. My question is are both the flights allowable as a business expense as the Company would have had to pay for the total cost if he wasn't going on holiday? Or would I have to complete a P11d for the director showing the "destination" flights as a benefit in kind.
actually, we've done this one before (or at least one very similar too it). Let me just have a dig around for a min as I know the other thread had some good discussion in it.
Right, I'm back, did you miss me!
Have a read of this thread first (I think that it should prove enlightening) and then we'll take it from there.

Thanks for the link Shaun - I now have brain overload
I gather from the threads that this area can be a little confusing for everyone so that makes me feel less of an idiot.
In this case as long as the "holiday" is incidental to the business trip then all the expense will be allowable - other than that it becomes a benefit - would that be your conclusion.
