April is always a significant month in the business world. This year is no exception, with big changes coming in, including the extended rollout of Making Tax Digital for VAT. In this newsletter we look at those changes, explain why we are advocates of cashflow planning and answer the thorny question, how can you get out of a commercial lease early?
April, and the start of the financial year, always brings notable changes for businesses. Making Tax Digital has now been rolled out for all VAT registered businesses, the controversial 1.25% increase in National Insurance was introduced and national minimum wage rates increased.
Why not talk to us about how your business can manage these changes?
