If you don't understand this you maybe shouldn't be attempting your own accounts and CT return. There are serious consequences if you get it wrong so its probably worth seeking professional assistance - at least for the first time.
Quick question - I understand the FRV Corpo Tax, but I'm failing to understand if it takes into account any wages I pay myself i.e. do my Company expenses include or exclude my wages I pay myself as an employee of my Ltd?

Yes, why wouldn't it be. It's not a rebate on VAT you get after you have paid calculated profits and paid CT, it is additional potential profit generated as a result of paying less VAT on the FRS. If you don't spend it on some other legitimate business expenditure it becomes part of the co's profits and gets taxed as such. Nothing underhand about it.
my ltd is on the flate-rate VAT scheme. Now I am calculating corporation tax.
My understanding is this is simply: gross_income - gross_expenditure. Is that correct?
I'm assuming if I wasn't on Flate Rate scheme, it would all be done with the NET figures totals.
Corp tax is on your profit which can be [money in]-[money out] but can also be a lot harder than that.
Thoughe make sure you account for the change in tax years (i.e. the jump from 20% to 21% accordingly). Also if you have any fixed assets (i.e. comp equipment over £100 (general rule) then depreciate that accordingly).
If you are on FRS you have to add the bit you've saved to your profit and work out the tax on that.
