SoleTax

Cash basis

Plain English, for UK sole traders. Checked against gov.uk on 4 July 2026.

The standard way sole traders record income and expenses: money counts when it's received or paid, not when it's invoiced. You don't pay Income Tax on money you haven't received yet, so an unpaid invoice isn't taxable income until it's paid.

Equipment you buy for the business is a normal expense when you pay for it under cash basis, with cars as the exception.
