Mastering the Basics
Tax Planning Tips For Creatives
■ Review Your Structure Annually
As your income grows, the optimal business structure can change.
■ Maximise Pension Contributions
Pension contributions reduce your taxable income — one of the most tax-efficient moves available.
■ Claim All Allowable Expenses
Equipment, subscriptions, home office, travel — it all counts.
■ Time Income and Expenses Carefully
Deferring income or accelerating expenses into the right tax year can reduce your bill.
