What is a Limited Company?
​A limited company is a distinct legal entity separate from its owners (shareholders). It provides limited liability protection, meaning shareholders' personal assets are safeguarded from business debts and liabilities. This structure enhances credibility and can offer tax advantages, making it a popular choice for businesses aiming for growth and longevity.
What are the Differences between a Limited Company and a Sole Trader?
Choosing between a limited company and sole trader (ST) status depends on several factors:
Liability: Sole traders are personally liable for business debts, while limited companies offer limited liability protection.
Taxation: Sole traders are taxed on their personal income, while limited companies are taxed on their profits at the corporate tax rate, potentially resulting in lower taxes.
Credibility: Limited companies often convey a more professional image to clients, suppliers, and investors compared to sole traders.
Complexity: Sole trader registration is simpler and involves fewer administrative requirements than forming a limited company.
Accounting Differences between Limited Company and Sole Trader
The accounting requirements for limited companies and sole traders differ significantly:
Records: Sole traders maintain personal and business finances together, whereas limited companies must keep distinct financial records.
Reporting: Limited companies must file annual accounts and corporation tax returns with HMRC and Companies House, whereas sole traders report their income and expenses on a self-assessment tax return.
Audit Requirements: Limited companies may require audits depending on their size and turnover, while sole traders generally do not face audit obligations.
Taxation: Limited companies benefit from tax-deductible expenses and potential tax planning opportunities not available to sole traders.
Should I Go Limited?
Deciding whether to incorporate as a limited company depends on your business goals, financial situation, and growth plans:
Liability Protection: If protecting personal assets from business risks is crucial, forming a limited company provides significant advantages.
Tax Efficiency: Limited companies often benefit from lower tax rates and more extensive tax planning opportunities compared to sole traders.
Credibility and Growth: Incorporating can enhance your business's credibility and facilitate growth by attracting investors and accessing funding more easily.
If you are unsure on whether you should take the plunge from trading as a sole trader to incorporate as a limited company, consult with the accountants at Ultra Tax Ltd. We can assess your situation and advise the best approach for your business.
