When I went through my first end of year accounts, one of the accountants did mention it and said I should have been told to encorporate it. But as I say, it was probably worth about £200 when I started (max) and so whilst there is undoubtedly a loss for me on tax, it's not massive.Originally posted by northernladuk View PostYour accountant should have gone through all this with you and made you aware of stuff that is relevant.
