That was useful, more video's like this are useful my understanding of CIMA. Do you have a video on on Tax Written Down Value

[@davedwave7]

Thank you for your video. Very informative. Do you keep your retained earnings in a separate account?

Thank you Tony. Why is share capital £1? How about the money I could have invested in starting the company?

[@sandrabarros326]

Hi quick question you said in UK it is known as capital and reserve? What it is call? Retained earnings ?? I am confused

Hi can you explain what is retained payments?

[@flipflop696]

Wow. Excellent and presented in a simple understandable way unlike my accountant who charges £2k for doing my company accounts! :) Quick question please: if I invest £10k from (from my chartered accountant's Balance Sheet) 'Retained Earnings' into a 1 Year Bond (in my name as sole director) is it legal? I know it is a 'risk' and the interest would be a realised gain thus taxable when I declare my income. Thanks

[@tonydCFO]

Hi Flip Flop - assuming you are a sole trader business then I don't see an issue - the interest is taxable to 'interest income (income tax)

[@fatimaali6250]

why we add revaluation surplus in retained earnings.. as it is not actual amount of money but FMV of property plant and equipment , so the gain on asset is not actual and we shift it in retained earnings , but we pay dividend through retained earnings and if we issue share then the cost or expenses are adjusted by retained earnings .. so it means we have money in that acccount then why we add revaluation surplus ,, kindly clear bmy doubts

Hi Aidhan , Watched some of your videos. Very insightful.. I have a couple of questions which also might be helpful to many people. 1. If someone from India wants to establish a manufacturing company in the U.K. Or wants to buy existing company how does this happen? Because, if it is for big companies it's easy as they have contacts.(Example: Tata acquired jaguar Land Rover.) 2. If the whole family is settled in the Uk and got permanent residency, but still we want to buy land in India as an investment. Do we need to establish a limited company or buying on personal name is okay?
