Hello,
I have a question about Drawings.
Are there any rules regarding drawings ? In particular, how much can a Business Owner (Sole Trader) withdraw ?
At the end of the year, drawings are merged with Capital and Profits/Losses ? Can Capital be a negative figure if Drawings are higher than Capital ?
I have a real life example, although the guy doesn't keep records, so these numbers are the only ones available :
Turnover £ 45K
Expenses £ 37K
Drawings £ 10K
Bank Balance £ 1K
It appears to me that Drawings are a "Tax-Free" way of taking money out of a business. Or am I missing something here ?
Regards, Andreas
