  • Yes of course. Anyone with the correct money can buy an iPad. I believe they sell them in shops or online.
    If you haven't got it - please don't flaunt it. TIA.

    Of course a director of a limited company can buy anything on behalf of the company as long as it is for the company and not solely for their personal use as a private individual.
  • What if there are 2 directors?? Is that pushing the business account spending?
  • Heidi. What's the actual issue?

    Is the ipad to be used for business purposes? Only you (or whomever manages the accounts) will know if your business can afford two ipads.

    You really, REALLY, as a director, need to get some knowledge of how to manage a business otherwise it won't be a going concern for very much longer.

    Is the problem that one of the directors thinks the ipad is unnecessary? Is there some sort of tax problem? Do you really want two ipads, but you can only afford one?

    I'm confused!
  • Can afford 2, just one of us would us it more than tr other. We manage out business well, just unsure what items can be bought for the business.

    Only posted for advice, not a hard time. Will call out accountant
