capital purchase on flat rate VAT - invoice in company name?
Quick question, I'm about to buy some IT equipment for my company that will total more than #2k on a single invoice. A friend can get a discount from the supplier, but only if the equipment is billed to her. If she is invoiced and passes me a copy of the VAT invoice, and I reimburse her in...- doubleh

I'm an accountant, do I need to hire one?
Thanks all for the friendly welcome and good advice, which all makes sound sense. I guess my takeaway is that there is an advantage in having a second pair of eyes which I definitely agree with; I'm also quite tempted by the idea of having a wingman for the first year and then going solo after...- doubleh

I'm an accountant, do I need to hire one?
Just want to say this is my first post, so apologies in advance for any noobish mistakes or offence caused; I have been reading the forum for a while whilst deciding whether or not to take the plunge as a contractor, and have searched for any previous answers to my question without finding any...- doubleh
