BUSINESS TAX & CORPORATION TAX
Business tax or small business tax accounting essentially involves adjusting the net trading profit of the business of a sole trader or that of a partnership for tax purposes and then deducting a claim for capital allowances
If a business is conducted through a limited liability company, then that entity is subject to corporation tax on its profits, again adjusted for tax purposes and a claim for capital allowances. The current rate used for corporation tax calculation for small companies is 19%.
