    I thought it was about standard (some months are 4 weeks long, some are 5) - I averaged it out.

    Must be the way different agencies do it.

    I invoiced for 25 days last week!

      Now that must have been a busy week.

        VAT isn't part of your rate, you have no option to change from 17.5% to 15% as soon as the rate change is applied.

              Looking at the Poll options, I think it was originally a serious post about the good Labour has done by reducing VAT
              The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

              But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

                That is true. And, if you are and remain on the Flat Rate Scheme, you have no option to change your payment rate from 13% to 11.5%.

                The net effect of these two changes will be a loss to your company (which SallyAnne ironically described as a minus "saving", irony which went right over most people's heads, making me wonder if gcse might not be a little high to aspire to), and the OP question was, will you be passing that on to your client (i.e. by a change in rate).

                      I told the missus about all this last week, and asked her to give me a 'rimming'
                      she rode the front wheel of her mountain bike right into me nads, then threw a second hand teabag at me.
