Hi,
I'm thinking about going down the Ltd Co route for a new busienss venture. The reason is partly for protection, but more importantly for tax reasons. I am told that one can take income from the company in the form of "dividends". Could anyone here explain the basis of this method please?
Also, if the company receives a holding deposit on behalf of a customer/tenant/client and provided there are no legal contraints in place, is it possible to then take that deposit from the limited company (as a director) and hold it personally, until the company requires it, without paying tax on that transaction?
Finally, what sort of accountancy fees could one expect for a Ltd Co with under £100k p/a turnover, one director + secretary but no PAYE scheme (income taken purely in div's).
TIA for any help.
