Thanks, Elaine.
I didn't think I would be reporting back so soon, but I have received a favourable response from the procurement officer to say that the accounts can be prepared and certified by either a registered auditor or a reputable accountant.
Thanks very much once again for all...
Thank you very much for the replies. I have emailed the person in charge of the tender process to ask what they mean by audited accounts - to see whether they do actually understand the real meaning of the term. I just hope I get the answer I'm looking for - but either way, if it sounds as...
A contract which my Ltd company has held for the last 4 years is out to tender at the moment. Unlike the last tender process, this time they are asking for "audited, published accounts" as a mandatory requirement. Our latest accounts (up to 31/08/10) were unaudited. Can someone please give an...
Thanks very much, Elaine. I will be speaking to my accountant. So just to clarify, is it income tax as opposed to capital gains tax because of my relationship to the company?
I would appreciate some advice about something please. I'm going to be raising this with my accountant soon but thought I would just "test the water" first so to speak.
My wife and I are directors of our own limited company and we recently bought some equipment for a ridiculously low price in...

I'm currently getting everything ready to fill in my SA form for 2008-09 and have one question please.
I know that with VAT, the Tax Point is either the date of supply or the invoice date if within 14 days. But I'm getting a little confused in relation to Income Tax. I have always gone on the...
Thanks very much once again to everyone for their time spent researching and replying to this thread. I really am truly grateful and have found it very intriguing. I had a feeling that this might be one that would lead to some discussion and I'm glad that I asked it now, if only to draw...
Thanks very much for your reply, Chris - it was not the answer I wanted I suppose but I'm grateful that you've confirmed it anyway, and that you've backed it up with a reference to the relevant legislation. I haven't gone over the threshold yet but at least this info will make sure that I go...
I would be very grateful for advice on how to continue calculating my turnover for the last 12 months having recently changed from Sole Trader to a private company.
I was not VAT-registered as a Sole Trader and neither is the company VAT-registered at the present time.
The company is...
Thanks very much, Tom. In that case we will both draw a low salary starting this year, with that salary being lower than the pro rata figure for a director since the company is being formed after the start of the tax year.
