What insurance or tax is needed to be paid for an online shop? -

I am just setting up a online retail store for ladies lingerie, orders will be posted from my home address initially - do I need insurance and do I need to pay capital gains tax? Does anybody know of anything else hidden that I may have missed?

Not Capital Gains, but you need to register at http://www.hmrc.gov.uk for self assessment. If your income is high enough, you will pay Schedule D tax, and Class 4 National Insurance. Anyone self-employed also needs to pay Class 2 National Insurance.

why would you need to pay capital gains tax? You will certainly have to pay income tax though. you need to decide what legal structure to be - are you going to be a limited company or just a sole trader? you need to register your new status with your tax office and start keeping accurate records of your income and business-related expenditure, so it is easy to do the first tax return in due course. Not sure about insurance - I would have thought you might need public liability insurance? You would also need to tell your home insurance company and maybe pay extra for running a business from home. You will also need to tell the council and they might charge you business rates.

You need to register with HM Revenue Customs as self employed, and if your turnover is in excess of ��68k you need to register for VAT.Capital Gains Tax is due when you make a gain on the sale of an asset; it isn t a tax on the profits of a business.You probably need Product Liability Insurance - see attached link.

Has anyone in the uk made extra money at home online? If yes, how??? Thanks people.? -

You need to send your resume out to real jobs you are qualified to do. In your cover letter you need to state that you wish to work remotely, from your home office. LOTS of companies, especially in CA operate this way. They usually provide transportation for you to come in for an interview and for you to attend company meetings a few times a year, but otherwise everything is done online.

Im in a start-up with one partner. What percent to give to a new partner? -

Hello. I need some help. I have a partner and we own a new start-up business. There are two investors who wants to help us with money (we think at that moment they are not needed a lot of money), services (about low, marketing and finances) and partnership. The company will remain ours, but we don t know how much percents to give them and which one of them to get. They have their own businesses and are big in their field. They are not going to spend a lot of time for us, but will do it when needed. They are angel investors . We and they think that we have a great idea with a big potential, but we are really in the early start-up.

Pl. be very clear about what you do write a proper agreement before you take any finance.Be very specific in areas of co-operation if the investors are not spending time to help in business then a fixed ROR on loan amount/Royalty on sales can be offered to investing partners but try not to give any share holding in your biz.Why have you not tried banks?Banks offer better rates but ask for sales turnover plans for future with colateral G ntees in form assets eg.bldg./bonds etc.The investing partners must be identified clearly taken as sleeping partners only.But once again, I firmly advise to do a proper agreement in conusltation with your CA/Lawyer.

How would I go about doing this? -

I am graduating this year and am planning on majoring in Elementary Education and Business. I know it s a lot of work but I know I can do it so don t tell me I shouldn t or w/e. I want to open my own animal shelter and don t know what I specific business major I should major in or how I would go about opening my own shelter. I know it will take a lot of work but how? Help please?

You need business managment skills and understanding what your doing. You would need to know that you gonna need investors or money to find a commercial faciility to host all the neglected dogs, cats. exc. Than you need to find NonProfit Orginization sponsers and grants. Mostly would be obtainable through your state or county site. You gotta do alot of googly to get that money. whatever money you throw at the orginization becomes tax deductable, depends on what state. You have to have a business plan drawn up and ready to go to get the money, grants, and loans. And go find some cats to lethal inject. youll find more help and resources at sqipom.com

You ll need knowledge in the charity / non-profit field. Have you planned out how you re going to complete both these majors? You can do both, but not in four years, especially since one of your semesters will be taken up by student teaching.

What service should i use for shipping something extremely fragile? -

I usually use usps because their prices are low and i don t really know about how to ship with anyone else. i have a package to ship full of a perfect set of old china. some one just bought it from me for $500.How can i ship this to ensure nothing will get broken or damaged in transit and at the same time keep the price low? What shipping company should i use and do they have any rules about packaging? Please help! Thanks!

the best method for this type of product would be to have it crated, although this would also be the most expensive. i have used www.shipalliance.com for crating larger items for shipping. They did a great job with both have reasonable prices.

I would contact the UPS store. Usually if they pack it for you, they have some guarantees to go with it. If you insure this set of china and something goes wrong, you can get your money back, but that of course may not be as important as the china itself.

How to make profit from a cafe? -

i don t get how you can make a profit from a cafe you need a loan to start up (probably) then all the running costs of electricity, gas, water, rent, stock and other things, that means you will need to make loooadss a day to break even neer mind make a profit can someone explain where the money is made, thankyou =D

The labor costs are offset by wait staff being paid less than minimum wage (in return for tips). The rest is made by raising the prices for a 15% profit above the break even point.
