There's no need to give any monetary information. However a clear explanation of the Company structure would be of benefit. As possibly its this which is creating the issue. As remuneration from a Company is not a complex issue in itself.
Profit is a measure of Company performance. In a small business normal practice would be to add back Directors remuneration and benefits to ascertain underlying trend. As of course these can vary from year to year.0 -
Thanks. The underlying trend for the most recent year would not look particularly good and I am sure that is not unusual in the current climate - income has been maintained by drawing retained profit that had been put aside for difficult times and previous years were consistent. So if you look at income - no problem. If you look at Company profit (and in particular, my share of it) then I might get a cardboard box (but not a very nice one).0
