This is a massive uplift and will benefit many small and medium sized businesses. If you are thinking of buying any plant and machinery before the end of the year and you have already spent more than £25,000 this year, then waiting until 1 January 2013 will result in significant tax savings

The Chancellor also revealed that the main corporation tax rate for the financial year 2014 will be reduced by a further 1%, to 21%, for large companies. As already announced, the main corporation tax rate for financial year 2013 is 23% for large companies and the small profit rate for small companies is 20%.
