Hello,
I gave a talk on the new Construction Industry Scheme (CIS) reverse charge VAT measures (due to apply in October) this week. My chatty audience asked many questions and we worked through many of the practicalities of implementing the changes that are required to reverse charge your supplies. I am not sure that any of my software currently allows me to use both cash and accruals accounting at the same time and I wonder how many people have actually tried a ‘walk through’ of a typical construction contract under the proposed measures. I recommend that you have a go.
