New corporation tax rates

As from 1 April corporation tax rates increased for companies with taxable profits above £50,000. The new rate is 25% for companies with taxable profits above £250,000 with a hybrid rate of 26.5% for profits between the two limits.

If your profits are close to the £50,000 you may wish to consider:
1. Are all your costs allowable for tax?
2. Paying into a company pension for yourself or your employees
3. Paying interest on any directors’ loan accounts that are in credit.
