Straight up

Five things before you ask.

Not deductible
Add twenty per cent and get no relief on any of it.
Dearer than hiring a room
It should be. A room doesn't come with the line-up.
No report after
Photographs and a short film. Nothing about your guests.
Turnout is yours
Your clients and your invitations. I won't put a number on who turns up.
No stage time
Nobody gets five minutes at the front. Not me, not you.

Payment, term and tax for The Residency
The Residency
The price	£40,000 a year plus VAT. Four invoices of £10,000 plus VAT, so £12,000 four times a year, £48,000 including VAT in all.
How it's billed	Each night is invoiced on the 1st of the last month of the quarter before, and paid by the end of that quarter. So nothing is booked for a night until it's paid for. The first night is the exception: invoiced 22 January, paid within 30 days. Payment is by bank transfer.
Term	Twelve-month commitment. Twelve months from your first night, or until your fourth night has been delivered, whichever is later.
Leaving	You may cancel at any time. The fee for the term remains payable.
One night instead	£15,000 plus VAT, one invoice, paid in full in cleared funds within 14 days of the night being confirmed.
Tax	No corporation tax relief, and the VAT isn't recoverable. Same as any client entertaining (HMRC VAT Notice 700/65).
Not included	Getting guests there or home, hotels, gifts, and VAT. Every price is plus VAT and that's the only extra.
