Tell TradeNavigator about your working year and what your business needs to pay for. You can fill this in a bit at a time — nothing here is required to keep quoting.
Your main working pattern for the year. If part of it isn't settled yet, tick "Not sure yet" — an honest gap is better than a guess.
How much does your business need to provide for you over a full year? Think about the amount you need before your own personal tax — not the total money the business takes from customers, and not what's left after tax.
What does it cost just to run your business each year? Go through these one at a time. If a cost doesn't apply to you, that's a real answer too.
The day comes when the van or a machine has to be replaced, and that's a real yearly cost of running your business. Servicing and repairs keep things going and live in Running Costs — this is only about being ready to buy the thing again. Focus on the vehicles and equipment that would cost you meaningful money to replace; you don't need to list every small hand tool.
Two quick decisions about the road ahead. Both feed straight into your number.
Something the business doesn’t already have — expanding into a new service, extra equipment, that kind of investment. Replacing what you already own belongs in Vehicles & Equipment, and your own personal savings aren’t a business cost.
