If no to both the above, then why can't I declare a dividend to get the money from the Company into my personal account so I can buy a car with it?

Nothing stopping you taking a dividend and buying a car with it, you can do what you like with your dividend money. The only issue is if you take a dividend larger than you should.

I assumed you meant buying a car through your limited, there is no financial advantage in doing this (normally) for the type of business an IT contractor runs so this is probably why your accountant didn't recommend it (either that or your books show a dividend of that size was not do-able given your turnover).

I thought the whole point of the scrappage thing was to allow the owner of an old car to trade it in and get a payment towards a newer one. If the company is the owner and has owned it for the required amount of time and the car qualifies then there should be no problem with the company trading its asset in for another. If you currently own the car then i can't see how the company could use it as it could never have owned it for the required amount of time.

What make/model of car?

Two More to add.

Why the hell people don't give straight answer when someone ask a question?

Why the hell people pretend that they answer questions in a forum?

hopefully, you understood....

I love this site.

Your accountant says no.

You didn't like that answer so you asked on here.

Some people have tried to take you through the reasons why you would have got that answer from your accountant but you don't really want to know, you just want people to tell you what it is you want to hear so you throw a hissy fit.

Why don't you ask your mates down the pub? They might be more sympathetic.

More importantly, what colour is it?

Thats what you think.... btw, my accountant didn't say like that... keep it quiet...

Tell you what, sweet pea - when you've run a business as long as I have, when you have studied freelancing as carefully as I have, when you have my background as an accountant and when you uinderstand the basics of comapny law and corporate accountancy, then you can mouth off.

I answered the question as posed. Sorry you can't cope with the answer.

Now go home to mummy, your tea's ready.

The whole point is... this is a discussion forum/ information sharing forum....Yes, my accountant said something which iam not sure about it (didn't get angry) then posted a question here to get an answer ... what is wrong with that?

What i don't understand is why people get angry ?

Just because i have not done my research before posting the question... if that's the case then thats BULLtulip...

Close contractorUK and go and check in google...
