Recent Tax Changes and Things to Be Aware of In the Future

Recent Tax Changes and Things to Be Aware of In the Future

Tax e-News

Welcome to our monthly newswire. In this issue we cover a number of recent tax changes and things to be aware of in the future. As usual contact us if you wish to discuss any matters further.

NEW PERSONAL SERVICE COMPANY RULES START THIS MONTH

The “off-payroll” working rules that apply to certain workers supplying their services to clients via their own personal service companies start from 6 April 2021.

Under this new regime end user businesses will be required to determine whether that individual would have been treated as an employee or not if directly engaged. This will be a significant additional administrative burden on the large and medium-sized businesses to whom the new rules apply. This is a complex area based on different decisions by the courts and HMRC suggest that end user organisations use the CEST (Check Employment Status for Tax) online tool on their website to help with the determination. The end user business is then required to issue the worker with a Status Determination Statement setting out the reasoning for their decision, a copy of which is also given to any agency supplying the worker if relevant.

The determination notifies the agency that PAYE and NIC should be deducted from payments to the worker’s personal service company. That information should be passed down the labour supply chain if other entities are involved, and the ultimate fee payer is liable for making the tax and NIC deductions. If HMRC are unable to collect the tax from the fee payer, the liability will pass up the labour supply chain thus encouraging the end user organisation to carry out due diligence to limit their exposure.

The 130% rate does not apply to equipment such as air conditioning and central heating that normally qualify for a 6% writing down allowance. Such “integral features” qualify for a special 50% first year allowance for the same two-year period.

Please contact us to discuss the tax implications of major capital expenditure decisions.

NEW ENHANCED LOSS RELIEF RULES MAY RESULT IN EXTRA TAX REFUNDS

Accounting and Bookkeeping Services UK - Affinity Associates

In the March Budget it was announced that the normal one year carry back for trading losses would be extended to three years. This means that many businesses that have made losses during the COVID-19 pandemic may be able to obtain a repayment of tax paid in that three-year period. This enhanced carry back applies to unincorporated businesses as well as limited companies and the details are set out in the latest Finance Bill.

For corporation tax purposes the loss-making accounting period must end between 1 April 2020 and 31 March 2022 to qualify for the three year carry back. For unincorporated businesses, the trading loss must be incurred in 2020/21 or 2021/22.

Please contact us if you need assistance in complying with the new rules.

NO CHANGE FOR “SMALL” EMPLOYERS

“Small” businesses will be outside of the new obligations and services supplied to such organisations will continue to be dealt with under the current IR35 rules with the worker and his or her personal service company effectively self-assessing whether the rules apply to that particular engagement.

The definition of “small” is based on the existing Companies Act 2006 definition. That is where the business satisfies 2 or more of the following features:

  • Annual turnover of £10.2million or less
  • Balance Sheet total of £5.1 million or less
  • 50 employees or less

UBER DRIVERS ARE WORKERS NOT SELF EMPLOYED

The Supreme Court has ruled that drivers for the ride hailing App Uber are workers not self-employed individuals and hence are entitled to holiday pay, pension rights and the right to be paid the national minimum wage. This case will have implications for other workers in the “gig” economy and may also have a bearing on the tax status of such workers. HMRC will certainly be taking an interest in the Supreme Court ruling. Note that tax law doesn’t necessarily follow employment law, but the boundaries are becoming increasingly blurred making it difficult to determine an individual’s employment status with absolute certainty.

For example, if Albion Ltd incurred trading losses of £200,000 in year ended 31 December 2020 having made profits of £50,000 in year ended 31 December 2019 it would normally only be possible to relieve £50,000 of the losses.

The new temporary carry back rules would permit losses to be set against trading profits made in the years ended 31 December 2018 and then 31 December 2017 as well. If profits in those years were £150,000 or more then the company would be entitled to a £38,000 corporation tax refund (19% of £200,000).

CONSULTATIONS ISSUED ON “TAX DAY” BY TREASURY

The Treasury normally issue a bundle of tax consultation documents on Budget Day. This year however they chose to delay the publication until 3 weeks after the Budget. We were expecting the consultation documents to include major changes to CGT and IHT, but it would appear that these have yet again been delayed. The Treasury have accepted a number of recommendations by the Office of Tax Simplification (OTS) on simplifying IHT reporting. From 1 January 2022 over 90 per cent of non-taxpaying estates each year will no longer have to complete IHT forms for deaths when probate is required. The government will also consider introducing a new digital system for IHT and probate reporting.

Another consultation is seeking views on modernising the tax administration system including changes to the payment dates for those outside PAYE. It would appear that HMRC are reconsidering a possible Pay as You Go system for the selfemployed that was originally consulted on in 2016.

The court determined that the drivers were in a position of subordination to Uber. The only way the worker could increase their earnings would be to work longer hours as Uber set the fare charged to the customer. This indicates that the driver is under the control of Uber, a key factor in determining employment status. However, it could be argued that there is limited Mutuality of Obligation as the drivers are able to refuse certain rides, although that may result in sanctions by Uber.

MORE DETAILS ON THE NEW SUPERDEDUCTION FOR EQUIPMENT

In the Budget on 3rd March the Chancellor announced a new 130% tax relief for expenditure on new plant and machinery incurred between 1 April 2021 and 31 March 2023. It turns out that this new tax relief is only available to limited companies and the latest Finance Bill reveals a nasty sting in the tail when the equipment is sold, as the clawback on disposal is potentially at the same 130% rate. So, if a new item of plant cost £100,000 the company would be able to deduct £130,000 in arriving at taxable profits thus saving £24,700 in corporation tax at 19%. However, if the plant was sold for £80,000 on 1 April 2023 130% of the proceeds would be clawed back and £104,000 added to taxable profit which could result in up to £26,000 corporation tax payable at the new 25% rate. The claw-back rate reduces on a time basis from 1 April 2023 onwards so it would be advisable to retain the asset long term.

REVIEW OF BUSINESS RATES

Among the documents published was an interim report on the government’s Fundamental Review of Business Rates, which sets out a summary of responses to last year’s call for evidence. The final report will be published in the Autumn. The government will also legislate to tighten tax rules for second homeowners meaning they can only register for business rates (and business rates relief) if their properties are genuine holiday lets. This will close a loophole that allowed some second homeowners to avoid paying council tax on that property, and some were even claiming coronavirus support grants for their “business”.

DIARY OF MAIN TAX EVENTS

APRIL/MAY 2021

Date What’s Due
1/04 Corporation tax payment for year to 30/6/20 (unless quarterly instalments apply)
6/04 2020/21 tax year ended on 5th. 2021/22 tax year begins.
New “off-payroll” working rules start.
19/04 PAYE & NIC deductions, and CIS return and tax, for month to 5/04/21 (due 22/04 if you pay electronically)
1/05 Corporation tax payment for year to 31/7/20 (unless quarterly instalments apply)
19/05 PAYE & NIC deductions, and CIS return and tax, for month to 5/05/21 (due 22/05 if you pay electronically)

Why Outsourced Accounting Services are More Reliable for Small Business

Why Outsourced Accounting Services are More Reliable for Small Business

Whether you want to control your business on your own forever, or you are urgently looking for an investor, you need to have accurate financial statements. Your financial statements can help you get lower interest rates on loans, better forecast your cash flow, and make informed decisions for future growth.

As solid and transparent information is the key to any business decision, your financial statements need to go over and above the minimum obligations. This is why you need to think about Outsourced Accounting Services or hire an accountant for your small business in London, as it gives you the most accurate picture of your finances.

Why You Need to Think About Outsourcing Your Accounting Tasks

  1. It Could Eliminate Multitasking: In many small businesses, it has been observed that the owners or managers do most of the accounting-related tasks. Even when a CAP looks after the taxes or end-of-the-year reports, everyday bookkeeping tasks are handled by someone with many duties that go beyond accounting. Well, as we all know, multitasking sometimes creates grim problems. Firstly: It is not compulsory that the people who handle the bookkeeping tasks in your small business may have adequate accounting knowledge. And if they do not possess enough knowledge of accounting rules, they may report transactions in the wrong period or make other errors.

Secondly: When an individual or an employee in a small business has other business operations to look into, then there are chances that the bookkeeping and accounting tasks are left behind or ignored. Accounting reports that managers use to make decisions can quickly become out of date. Documents needed to take the business decision may not be ready when required.

Thirdly: When you don’t have a dedicated resource to take care of accounting or bookkeeping tasks, it is viewed as an undesirable chore and often left untouched. This also increases the likelihood of errors.

  1. It Could Introduce Automation: Sometimes automation is necessary to overcome human error. Even though you prepare your books carefully, there are chances of human error, and even a single missed or transposed figure can ruin all your hard work. On the other hand, outsourced accounting services by a professional company like “Affinity Associates” can directly integrate into your inventory, point-of-sale, payroll, and other bookkeeping systems. Every time you make a transaction, your accounting systems are updated automatically. This virtually eliminates the possibility of human error in data entry.
  1. It Could Provide Expert Review: Virtual outsourced bookkeeping and accounting aren’t done totally by computers. There’s a CPA to review the entries and check the errors. There are plenty of aspects in accounting where minor errors are hard to spot without extensive accounting experience. If your CPA sees something that doesn’t look right, he or she can investigate further to see if an error was made and where it occurred. Ultimately, this offers you peace of mind that your books are accurate.

If you are a small business, and if you find it difficult to manage your books or other accounting-related tasks, then it is advisable to go for outsourced accounting services from a company like Affinity Associates. The team of accountants at Affinity Associates has a much broader range of expertise available that can help your business grow.

Looking for the Best Small Business Accounting Firm in the UK?

How to Choose the Best Small Business Accounting Firm in the London UK?

So, if you are looking for financial accounting services in London or anywhere across the United Kingdom, then here are three things to consider before you make the important decisions.

Consider Your Objectives:

Before you hire financial accounting services for your business, there are some really important questions that you should ask yourself. Why do you need the services? How often will you need the services? What are your expectations with the financial accounting services?

According to the Small Business Taxation Survey, approximately 60% of small businesses use the services of an external tax practitioner/accountant. According to the same survey, one-in-three small businesses report hiring an external resource to manage their accounts.

You can hire the services for hours, days, and months depending on your varying accounting requirements.

Consider Your Budget:

Financial accounting services in the UK are quite affordable, but it is always recommended to consider your budget before hiring the services. You must figure out how much you are willing to spend behind the accounting services. When hiring a full-time employee in your company, you need to remember that your costs will include his or her annual salary, taxes, health or life insurance, and other employee benefits like paid time off and employer retirement contributions.

Compared to hiring a full-time in-house resource, accounting services are quite affordable. Moreover, you don’t need to worry about other monthly expenses. You may be surprised to see how much money you could save by considering financial accounting services from an accounting firm like Affinity Associates.

Will it fit your business or not:

While considering financial accounting services, it is necessary to ensure that you are comfortable with the accounting firm, culture, and resources that will work for you. When choosing a company, there are some points to consider: the company’s philosophical principles, location, and level of dedicated service. It is necessary to decide whether you want to hire a local, national, or international firm to handle your accounting needs.
