Including your spouse in the company’s operations

It is quite legal to give your spouse a wage if you are self-employed and your spouse assists you with general administration or any other duty.

However, there are a few regulations that must be observed, such as how much you must give your spouse and how long you must preserve proof that the payments were made over the year.

Sole traders with higher rate tax obligations will profit greatly from this arrangement if their spouse is a non-taxpayer or a lower rate taxpayer, and further tax savings may be realized by making pension contributions.

Employers provide low-interest loans.

If the employee is not a director, a firm may be able to lend them up to £10,000 with no tax ramifications. This may be advantageous if, for example, the employee has to purchase a corporate automobile in order to avoid benefit in kind tax costs.

Stock market valuation

Stock should be valued at cost, but it may also be valued at ‘net realisable value’ if this amount is lower. This essentially indicates that the stock is valued at the price at which it might be sold on the open market. Lowering the value of closing stock reduces taxable earnings £ for £.
