FY2026 and 2026/27 rates. Assumes one company, one director, no other income, and all post-tax profit taken as dividends. No Employment Allowance, because a company whose only paid employee is its director is not eligible. Dividends need distributable reserves and paperwork, and pension contributions, not modelled here, are often the strongest move of all.

The workbook version shows every step of the chain with each rate in an editable cell, and adds a salary planner that runs four salary strategies side by side on your profit, so you can see which one actually leaves you better off.

Company law allows accounts to run for 18 months; corporation tax never allows an accounting period longer than 12. Here is how the split is drawn.
The associated companies rules get more involved once a group has layers. Sub-subsidiaries, dormant holding companies and short accounting periods, worked through in a single example.
An acquisition partway through the year still counts as an associated company for the whole accounting period. What that does to your thresholds, and to your tax bill.
