The circumstances can be compared to a medical pandemic in the business world. All t By : Kev Massey Many thousands of local and national establishments are being challenged with an insurgence of Tax Problems. The conditions can be compared to a medical pandemic in the business world. More and more businesses are stressed in order to raise credit and at the same time are being faced with customers and contractors who need longer and longer to pay invoices. This in turn is causing small businesses to spend the money which would have formerly been kept for HMRC to service operational trading and supplier costs. It is predicted that some 800,000 UK companies are currently struggling to clear their tax requirements and many of those risk strict penalties for trading whilst potentially insolvent. Records have suggested that around ?3billion each month is not being paid to HMRC.Any business owner who trades whilst unable to repay their tax liability runs the danger of trading whilst insolvent and effectively risks the chance of becoming personally accountable for bad debts and tax arrears. Traders who were previously struggling with tax predicaments always had the added cushion of having access to quick and affordable credit. However the rug has well and truly been pulled from under UK companies with many ending up in insolvency or CVAs. During these unpredicatable trading periods business owners more than ever need to pay very careful consideration to their tax debts and make sure that enough money is being kept aside to service their burden. To control tax burdens professionally is the underlying key for a successful business owner if he wants to remain in business, as failure to manage tax issues can amount to legal proceedings being brought by HMRC. It is also vital for UK business owners to immediately request specialist advice concerning any tax problems. HMRC are generally more appreciative of business owners who take the first step to resolving any liabilities instead of waiting for them to take enforcement action.
