Businesses need to invest in digital technologies to ensure that they keep connected to employees, customers and their supply chain – to do this, you may need IT support in North Yorkshire for your business.

It can be difficult for businesses to keep pace without IT support.

Businesses need to be aware of best practices around cybersecurity and particularly vigilant when it comes to personal data – the jargon-filled world of the General Data Protections Regulations (GDPR) and the Data Protection Act (2018).

We can help you create a strategy for your business and point you in the right direction for IT support.

Our resources cover a range of issues and you can contact our team for more detailed information.

Business Essentials – VAT

VAT (Value Added Tax) is added to most products and services sold by VAT registered businesses.  The main rate of VAT in the UK is currently 20%, although some goods and services are vatable at the reduced rate of 5% or are zero rated.  There are also goods and services that are exempt from VAT or fall outside of scope for VAT.

Business Essentials – Associated Companies

From April 2023 the Corporation Tax rules changed, with the headline being an increase in the main rate of Corporation Tax to 25%.  From this date, companies whose taxable profit was less then £50,000 would be subject to the small profit rate of 19% Corporation Tax. Companies with profits between £50,000 and £250,000 will pay a gradually increasing effective rate of taxation due to something known as marginal rate relief.
