.. and have a few questions.
I have searched and read many previous posts but I am still confused about these things:
1. Daily subsistence
i) if I am staying all week in accommodation in another city, I have read I can claim lunch or dinner - is this the receipted value or a particular amount.
ii) if I am driving each day to and from another city, can I claim lunch or dinner?
iii) are there any 'per diem' or 'per noctum' type of daily allowances that I can claim? What about misc daily costs such as newspaper, coffee etc?
2. Mobile phone
i) I understand that I need to get my mobile company to put the contract in my company name.. fine. However, in future, if I purchase a new contract in my company name, can this be purchased through the company? (I assume I can only have one mobile for the company?).
ii) Can I purchase a blue-tooth handsfree through the company?
Vat and FRS:
I will be registering for Vat and FRS.. I understand these take time to come through and in the meantime I bill the client stating 'Vat status pending'. However, how does this affect purchases? On the FRS if I purchase things through/for the company I know I cannot claim the Vat back (unless it's over 2000 pounds), is this the only difference on the FRS?
Thanks.
