    Not mine either, but nobody cancels SLA's,
    that's a big difference between contractor/business and permanent, entrepreneurship and level of responsibilities for outcomes is distinction between contract and perm.

      I'm really amazed with unusual ability of your mind to interpret reality in a very biased way.

      I'm really amazed at how you made up numbers, claimed everyone is stupid, refused to provide relevant information that would highlight how your business works differently, but still want to be rude to anyone who has maybe been contracting for 20+ years and maybe has a bit of experience and knowledge.
      …Maybe we ain’t that young anymore

        Again - beauty of human mind to interpret reality around us in a worst possible way. If you search for rudeness everywhere you might see it (even if it's not there)..

        20+yrs, taking my hat off to you...

        Calculations as was already mentioned before - are on previous pages
        (for some reasons nobody tries to defy any specific tax category result proving it's wrong with their calculation, everyone just says it's wrong in general? without having a clue where?),
        tax rates are on HMRC web-site.


        P.S. Also - 20 years mostly would be indicator of professionalism in certain area, not necessarily accounting/finance and running business efficiently, so forgive me for not accepting it at this stage as confirmation of advanced knowledge, just technically..

            And your calculations were incomplete, as was demonstrated by several of us, but still you want to feel superior.
            You then edit practically every post you make.

            You make claims about figures, and then change from them being generally true to only applying to the way your company runs.
            Perhaps the lesson you could take away is that if a lot of people who are technically minded and understand accounts are able to come up with the same figures, then instead of telling them they don't understand the "bare basics" and how it's not "rocket science", maybe you need to take a look and ask yourself "why are my figures massively different?"

              WTFH - I don't see a point of this polemics without proof that any of my tax numbers
              (already given before, from CT, to IT{inc. div} and NI) are wrong, everyone is just generalizing so far...

              it's looking more and more like a trolling, and not by me..

                Its clear that English is not your first language, so we should give you some leeway, but it is proving difficult to understand exactly what you're trying to say. Can I suggest typing what you mean into Google Translate (in your {first} language) and pasting the translated results here?

                  Ah. Either they're using a scheme or there's a second director (e.g. spouse) who's not working elsewhere and they're doing the dual tax break thing.

                    Yup.
                    Many variables, many caveats, which is why you, me, and others, all came back with roughly the same numbers - we were working of a "generally, what would you expect"

                      Not seen a calculator for two company directors - do you know of one?
