I saved some tax!

Options
I've just come across an ingenious way of saving myself tax on my earnings. Massively undercharge a client for a tax return who prepared their own books! Less revenue = less tax! ;)

(Thanks to those who suggested in earlier threads to only take on clients whose books you maintain themselves. Lesson learnt!)

    I suppose it depends who you compare it to, maybe against a tax inspector...
