Hi there,
One of my clients rents from his landlord a shop premisis. He had his first business in there, ceased trading March 2013
He retained the premisis and continued to pay the rent as he prepared to start up a new business. He just opened this business last month (September)
I have receipts for purchases he made a few months in advance of starting the business. I know these are fine to go through the books. Can I put the rent payments through the books also?
Can he claim mileage for the visits to retailers to purchase supplies to prepare his shop - even though the travel took place before he opened his business in September?
Many thanks in advance Paula
