Ant said: 23 June 2015 at 11:49 Thanks for your speedy reply. I use a separate personal cheque account for my business affairs, would that still count and would the bank charges incurred qualify as business expense? I'm not trading as, I basically just conduct my business in my personal capacity as a sole proprietor. |
