    10K thingi

    YES! WHAT'S IT GOT TO DO WITH YOU! DS?! OK - we are both having a dig, but come on, this is a naff posting. Verbal diarrhea.

    Directors Loans

    Keep it simple? Keep it simple? Because after years of experience in contracting one knows the approximate % one is likely to draw as net from gross turnover. So set yourself a figure of, say, 75% of your gross turnover and write what is called "a spreadsheet" to keep a running total of your...
