Incorporated businesses are liable for paying Corporation Tax on its taxable profits. These profits include money that company makes doing business (known as trading profits), rental income from property, investment gains and other chargeable gains.
The current Corporation Tax main rate is 19% from 01 April 2017 and will fall to 17% from 01 April 2020.
