How can the legal sector plan for cashflow?

HMRC announced in 2021 that the “Income Tax: basis period reform” has been delayed until at least April 2024. This may give businesses a little more breathing space, however, if and when the reform is enacted, there are a number of matters to consider, not least the impact on cashflow. Another significant cashflow issue for a business arises on the entry and exit to the business of any owner. As such, it may be beneficial to look at prospective partner changes in conjunction with the Income Tax: basis period reform to determine what affect this will have in the coming years.
