Our Ltd Co. will have a profit this year. Looking for advice on options. To reduce the amount of tax due in Corporation and closed service Co surcharge I believe I have the following options:
1. Increase directors wages to bring us into 40% band.
2. Amend 2010 and 2011 P35 to bring directors wage up to the max at the 20% as we were not taking much out in wages previously. (I have been advised that this is possible to do).
3. Pay the taxes and find a way to have a loss 2012/13 , through pensions, wages increase, etc, and offset against corp taxes paid 2011/12.
If I decide to go with option 1, amend previous p35's, do I have to physically pay out that amount in wages or can I just pay the amended amount in PAYE and PRSI and have the wages as owing in accruals at year end. Having that amount of cash come out of the Co a/c would mess up cash flow at the moment. Any advice appreciated.
