    Wrong Band from VOA for council tax

    Normally any improvements carried out during the period of a single ownership do not trigger a re-valuation, only when the property changes ownership is it automatically revalued and assessed for banding. So your re-banding must have been allowed due to it being unoccupied for two years, but you...

    VAT deregistration assets valuation

    So HMRC stating we don't need to keep records longer than 5 yrs isn't applicable if you are VAT registered??

    VAT deregistration assets valuation

    Thank you - that sounds like a sensible approach. Main assets are worth about £15k and for a chunk of them I have no memory of whether I claimed VAT on them or not so I have no idea how to calculate my final return. HMRC's guide to VAT deregistration seems woefully inadequate.

    VAT deregistration assets valuation

    Thanks but that guidance doesn't appear to cover any of my queries.

    VAT deregistration assets valuation

    Can anyone advise what, if any, is the cut off point for what needs to be included in the list of tangible assets in the business in terms of value? Do I need to include, count and value even the pencils and paperclips? I also have items that I bought for the business 20 and more years ago...

    Receipt missing VAT number? How to fix?

    I believe it is mandatory for a business to provide a full VAT invoice if requested by another VAT registered business. I can't post the link here but regulation is on the legislation gov uk site not the HMRC site: The Value Added Tax Regulations 1995, No. 2518, PART III, Regulation 13 But...

    Website build incomplete - Advice on Not paying the remaining cost

    A few years ago I had a similar issue with a firm authoring a DVD for me that did not match what I had asked for. They just kept on getting things wrong and after giving them much time and many chances to correct, I had to take the job elswhere to be done all over again. After a few months of...

    DVD sales pricing

    A lot to take in. Thanks again. It's quite a different world I'm heading into - one extreme to another having tried to perfect the art of NOT being noticed for so many years. Concerned about use of the BAFTA and EMMY images of the awards - I'd have to get clearance on that to stay legal - and I...

    DVD sales pricing

    Thank you all for very helpful information and ideas. I've just been offered "55% discount / SOR / no min order" by a specialist distributor supplying museum/gallery shops in London. I've been discussing a deal with one long established special interest distributor and online seller offering...

    DVD sales pricing

    I have no experience of selling other than of used items on Ebay over several years, to sell off my equipment. Now I am about to sell a DVD (British Wildlife) that I have produced and had manufactured (1000 off) and although my main aim is to sell online (it is already on Amazon using the...

    Small Claims Court

    There isn't any information on the claim form that describes the work or reason for the dispute. It just says under 'claim Particulars' : "Outstanding Invoice for service no. 22122. We are entitled to charge £27.84 in interest under the Late Payment of Commercial Debts [Interest] Act 1998 as...

    Small Claims Court

    Thank you all for useful info in different ways. I (the small guy, sole-trader) will carry on working directly with the claimant (the big guy) to put them off. I am rather surprised they have filed the claim since the 3rd party technical consultant I got free initial advice from 'condemned' the...

    Small Claims Court

    Thank you that's very sensible advice. I have put the story to a few friends and colleagues over the months but getting a legal pro to look at the full story I imagine would be expensive so I have avoided it so far. I was hoping that the claimant would back off in response to the evidence I...
