Case studies

These are just some examples of tax problems we have solved.

R&D tax claim

Problem

A local manufacturing company performed a significant amount of R&D work and were unaware of the potential tax relief from their previous accountant.

Solution

We identified this opportunity and used our R&D specialist team to review and make a claim.

Result

The company received a tax refund of £130,000 in the first year and refunds between £50,000 and £100,000 in each subsequent year.

VAT

Problem

HMRC mandated that a large construction company should make VAT payments on account of £99,000 per month.

Solution

We reviewed the tax legislation and provided HMRC with detailed forecasts showing the company should not be making payments on account.

Result

HMRC removed the company from the payments on account regime, improving their cashflow at a crucial time.

Pensions

Problem

A company was disposing of its property on which a large capital gains would result and also personal tax on extracting the funds.

Solution

We recommended the company make a pension contribution to the shareholders and utilise the carry forward rules.

Result

This saved the company and the shareholders total tax of just under £100,000. It also gave them the ability to extract funds from the company into personal accounts tax efficiently which helped their retirement plans.

Incorporation

Problem

A business was operating as a partnership but paying significant amounts of personal tax and NIC under their previous accountant.

Solution

We incorporated the business into a limited company utilising the tax reliefs available.

Result

This saved the business owners £15,000 in personal tax and NIC. In addition, they have the added benefits of trading through a limited company.
