Hi all.
I am a Ltd IT company providing IT consultancy as a one man band. I'm also doing renovation at my property, namely a kitchen at the moment.
As i'll be purchasing it myself, would it be immoral or illegal to open a trade account with, say, Howdens using the Ltd company in order to purchase a kitchen at trade prices much like a builder would do?
Is this something that people do or just a stupid idea? I'm thinking it's a stupid idea because I can't see how I would do it - purchase the kitchen as a company and sell it to myself as a customer?
I want to be clear, this is not to avoid any tax or vat or do anything illegal so if it is then i'm not interested
On a vaguely similar vein - as an IT company, how far can a company stray from it's original purpose, say, starts designing and selling kitchens instead of IT?
Thanks!
