Hi folks, We have a small business with a cash balance of min 70k in our current account, year round for the past few years.

The big mistake a lot of company owners make is the very simple statement "Corporation Tax is 12.5% while total taxes on income are 50%, so I will leave the profits in the company and pay less tax." The problem with this is that they will have to pay tax on the profits when they extract them...
