I just wondered how much you "pay" yourself, for tax purposes?
I put myself down at 5K, obviously im paid in kind , because its all our money that the business makes but im just wondering what other people do.
I probably do 10 hrs a week on average, but more at this time of year. The accountant has put the account down to 2.2K as she felt my amount was excessive. She calculated this amount based on the hours i said i worked at minimum wage . Minimum wage? Are there secretaries/book-keepers and general dogs bodies Ms Do everythings that would work for minimum wage?? I certainly wouldn't .
Maybe im being a bit precious, i am highly qualified but not in accountancy, but even when i worked at a general lacky and dogs body in a vets i was paid much more than the minimum wage and i was pretty much a kennel maid for some of that time.
