Got a 1700 ice bank tank that came out last year, near Shepton Mallet. Pm if interested.

The renting for a small fee is likely to get caught, but the turbine or advertising boards could be used. A discretionary trust would be needed - private schools often have 'trustee's days' for a reason! This cannot be done without serious professional advice and it is not something for the...

This is something that can be done and can be really useful tax planning which I have in place for some of my clients, but is also something that can go very wrong. There is a lot of legislation around this and there needs to be enough distance between the child and where they start earning...

Got a Quantock (same as a Jarmet) here, 1000l, 12m, might be a little big for you but £450 + VAT takes it. Think it needs new diaphragms in the pump, but nothing major. In Somerset, just south of Bristol.

As our business progresses and grows we are seeking two members to join our growing team on our small farm in the Mendip Hills of Somerset. If you are looking for a role that allows you autonomy to run a dairy herd and rewards you for continuous improvement, then our Herd Manager position could...

The Maryland butter is churned from whey from the Barbers cheese factory in Somerset, the milk field for the cheese is pretty local compared to some and I wouldn't expect any imported milk to be in it. I'm not sure what stage it is transferred to Cross Hands, but is either tankers of whey or...

Plenty to do with them here, but you need to be trading as a limited company and really doing something outside the box. There are plenty of cold calling specialists who will overstep the boundary of what is R and D, so take great care.

Thank you, but they are the outgoing firm.

Evening all, Looking for a new parlour engineer to look after my parlour with Metatron 12 meters. Coming up with a blank at the moment and hoping the forum might have a contact that could help, East Somerset area. Thanks in advance. Dan

Thanks for the tag @Steevo, be very happy to have a no obligations chat if you want to pm me your number. I'm with Old Mill, based out of the Yeovil office.

VAT registrations are an absolute nightmare at the moment, and have been for the last couple of years. Short staffed and every excuse under the sun, the only way is to keep on at them. Online applications working better than paper.

As an accountant and a farmer it saddens me to see a thread like this. Providing the scope is accurate, the charge is huge. There is either a reason for costs of this level (multiple meetings during the year, business support, management accounts, estate planning) which is being misunderstood...

Morning, yes I have sold it.

It's coming, but like various other changes coming in we don't yet have the full rules to work with. Farmers averaging is still here though to be used. Be very careful about if and when the year end is changed though, there are ways to spread the long period over up to 5 years, as long as...

Correct.

There is a little bit of an allowance to be made for the accommodation, but not much. Rates are https://www.gov.uk/national-minimum-wage-accommodation Minimum wage still applies after this is considered.

Possible to claim on part disposal, but needs to be with a significant decrease in your interest in the business. Not just available on a land sale only. It's very technical and you need an expert.

They would be correct. Private use bit depends on whether it is a company or a partnership/sole trader. Tax relief on electric cars gives you approximately twice the amount to spend as on a car with an engine. Which is useful, as they cost approximately twice the price.....

Driven by tax planning, they can be a very good tool, advise it in the right situation. Driven by asset protection, they often cause toxic feelings and family fallout. It's the motive not the tool.

Thanks for the tag @Andy26 . The typical farm that is mainly producing food will almost certainly be worse off financially by using cash basis for VAT, as it is not always possible to pay bills in the same month as the invoice date as no matter how well you pride yourself on paying on the nose...
