Questions, answered.
Allowable expenses are costs incurred wholly and exclusively for the business: materials and stock, tools and equipment, insurance, software, phone and internet (business share), professional fees and vehicle costs. Larger equipment may qualify for capital allowances, and the £1,000 trading allowance is an alternative if it beats your real costs.
