@360.accounts: "I didn't want to seem like I didn't know what I was doing." We hear this from directors who've been quietly paying more tax than they should. Sometimes for years. The £500 dividend allowance. Salary and NI optimisation. Wholly-and-exclusively expenses. These aren't loopholes. They're reliefs sitting in plain sight, missed because nobody felt comfortable asking. So here's your permission slip. Six things you're allowed to say to your accountant, in plain English: 1. "I don't fully understand this. Can you walk me through it?" 2. "What does this actually mean for my take-home pay?" 3. "I think I've been underclaiming expenses. Can we review?" 4. "I'm not sure I set my salary structure up correctly." 5. "I made a mistake last year and I haven't told anyone." 6. "I want to understand this properly, not just sign it off." If your accountant makes you feel small for asking any of these, that's a problem with the accountant. Not you. You're the director. It's your company, your money, your name on the return. Understanding it isn't optional. It's the job. Ask the question. 💡 #surreybusiness #wokingbusiness #guildfordbusiness #guildfordaccountant #surreyaccountant
