HM Revenue and Customs, in consultation with small business, has developed a new guide to R&D tax reliefs. The guide, which has been welcomed by tax consultancies and businesses, includes a flowchart that aims to help businesses to assess whether they have expenditure that might qualify for R&D tax relief. It also attempts to show businesses what to claim, how to claim and the pitfalls to avoid. It can be accessed via the HMRC's website.
