I was talking to some of the accountants recently and they were complaining about some contractors charging expenses (hotel rooms, meals and milage).
How do they get away with that? I certainly haven't tried getting expenses off of my client - but if I knew then what I know now.
Oh another interesting fact..the accountants do no know if the expenses are presented VAT free and then the VAT added on...or they are paying the VAT twice. God! what a gold mine!
I wondered whether it was
- legal to charge their expenses on top
- legal to charge vat on their milage expenses
- if the company is paying VAT on VAT.
Any opinions?
