Running a limited company means you have a lot to think about. Corporation Tax is one of them; running a strong, healthy business is another. You will be wise to take tax seriously. Why? Corporation tax is a tax on your company’s profits and therefore equates to a substantial part of your trading costs.

So, perhaps you have just started up in business and formed a limited company. Surely you can waive this tax aside until profits grow and you’re well afloat?

Could you really work out your tax liability? Could you ensure you deliver all required information on time, with strict compliance to Her Majesty’s Revenue & Customs (HMRC)?

It is doubtful. This is the work of a qualified, experienced accountant; if you get it wrong or miss the deadline, it is highly likely you will have to pay a harsh penalty.

It’s not worth the risk.
