Complete Guide to Voluntary Liquidation

Unlike Compulsory Liquidation, where a company is forced to close, Voluntary Liquidation occurs when the directors and shareholders decide to wind-up the company and place it into Liquidation. This is an entirely voluntary process that brings the company’s trading and operations to an end.

As a formal insolvency process, a licensed Insolvency Practitioner must be appointed to carry out the Voluntary Liquidation process, and it is not a decision to be taken lightly.

If you are considering Voluntary Liquidation, there are some essential factors and questions to take into consideration.

To help, Clarke Bell has put together this complete guide to Voluntary Liquidation, covering what it is, how it works, and who should take this route.

What is Voluntary Liquidation? 

A Voluntary Liquidation process is initiated by a company director or owner and can only be carried out upon approval of 75% of the shareholders.

Voluntary Liquidation is the process of officially winding-up and dissolving a company, letting it liquidate its assets, which can, in turn, be used to free up funds or pay off debts.

Once Voluntary Liquidation has been completed, the company is dissolved and taken off the registrar of companies.

Why choose Voluntary Liquidation?

There are several reasons a company would choose to go into voluntary Liquidation.

This is often the route taken by insolvent companies that are no longer sustainable and are operating at a loss. However, solvent companies can also enter into voluntary Liquidation.

Many solvent companies will choose this option as a tax-efficient way of closing their business, perhaps because a key staff member is retiring. The director is taking a step back to an employee role or moving abroad.

Whatever the reason for going into voluntary Liquidation, we will look at the different types of voluntary Liquidation available to find the best option for you.

Members’ Voluntary Liquidation

One form of voluntary Liquidation is Members’ Voluntary Liquidation (MVL.)

An MVL is a route open to solvent businesses that can pay their bills and typically have assets of £25,000 or over. This is usually the route taken by directors that no longer want or need their company. As we have already mentioned, this could be for many reasons, whether they are retiring, moving away, or they opened the company for a specific purpose that has been fulfilled.

This is a prevalent option for company directors of solvent businesses as it allows them to close their business in an HMRC approved, tax-efficient manner.

With an MVL, any funds taken out are subject to Capital Gains Tax rather than income tax. There are also further advantages for those that qualify for Business Asset Disposal Relief (this was known as Entrepreneurs’ Relief before 6 April 2020.)

With Business Asset Disposal Relief, eligible directors who are selling all or part of their business will pay just 10% in Capital Gains Tax on profits over the business’s lifetime up to a limit of £1 million. This is a considerable saving compared to income tax, which they would otherwise be charged, set at a rate of 18% at the basic level and 28% at the higher level.

Creditors’ Voluntary Liquidation

An MVL is an option available to solvent companies, but what about insolvent companies?

For businesses that are no longer sustainable, can’t cover their day-to-day costs, pay their bills, and are being chased for payments, a Creditors’ Voluntary Liquidation (CVL) is the best option.

Again, this is an entirely self-imposed process compared to a Compulsory Liquidation in which a company is forced to close.

A CVL is usually the best route to take if you have creditors asking for money to be repaid and you wish to avoid being forced into compulsory Liquidation. It also allows you to protect your finances from your business debts.

Whether you use the MVL or CVL process, both are legal procedures, and therefore, a licensed Insolvency Practitioner must be appointed to carry out the Liquidation.

How to choose the right Insolvency Practitioner

Entering into voluntary Liquidation is a big decision, and the Insolvency Practitioner you appoint can significantly impact the outcome. That’s why it’s essential to do your research and find the right Insolvency Practitioner to work with.

There are a few key things to look out for in an Insolvency Practitioner. First, you must ensure they are fully licensed. A qualified, licensed Insolvency Practitioner can only carry out voluntary Liquidation as a formal insolvency procedure.

You should also check that the Insolvency Practitioner has experience in your industry and with similar cases to yours. This will ensure they can bring their expertise to find the best solution for you.

Finally, it is crucial to ensure the Insolvency Practitioner has a good reputation, has been trading for a long time, and has a proven track record of success.

6 DIY Home Decorating Tips

Professional home stagers know how to play up your house’s strengths, hide its flaws, and make it appealing to just about everyone. We talked to several pros across the country to get their tips for freshening up the rooms in your home without breaking your budget. Check out Home Cares for home improvement tips.

1. Set The Tone at The Front Door

If you want your house to make a great first impression, paint the front door a fun, glossy hue. “Red is a lucky color in many cultures,” says Lara Allen-Brett, a New Jersey-based stager. A red door meant “welcome” to weary travelers in early America, and on churches it represents a safe haven.

Two other hues gaining favor: orange and yellow, according to San Francisco-based stager Christopher Breining. Both colors are associated with joy and warmth. One thing that should go: an outdated screen door. Get rid of it or replace it with a storm door with full-length glass that you can switch out for a screened panel.

2. Paint Wall Colors Light and Neutral

Stick to colors like beige or gray, especially on the first floor, where flow is important. “You want to minimize jarring transitions,” says Breining. Neutral walls give you the greatest decorating flexibility, allowing you to easily switch up your accessories.

And if you have two small rooms next to each other, painting them the same neutral color helps them feel larger. Look at a paint strip and move up or down a shade or two for a subtle variation from room to room, suggests Allen-Brett.

3. Living Area: Make Sure Your Sofa Talks to Your Chairs

Think of a nice hotel lobby: The furniture is arranged in groupings that invite conversation. When you place the furniture in your living room, aim for a similar sense of balance and intimacy.

“A conversation area that has a U-shape, with a sofa and two chairs facing each other at each end of the coffee table, or an H-shape, with a sofa directly across from two chairs and a coffee table in the middle, is ideal,” says Michelle Lynne, a Dallas-based stager.

One common mistake to avoid: Pushing all the furniture against the walls. “People do that because they think it will make their room look bigger, but in reality, floating the furniture away from the walls makes the room feel larger,” she says.

4. Let The Sun Shine In Your Kitchen

“When it comes to heavy, outdated drapes, a naked bank of windows is better than an ugly one,” says Lynne. Ideally, window dressings should be functional and elegant: Think sheers paired with full-length panels.

If your room gets a lot of sun, opt for light colors that won’t fade. The most recommended lightweight fabrics for panels are cotton, linen, and silk blends because they tend to hang well.

5. Hang at Least One Mirror in Every Room

“Mirrors can make space feel brighter because they bounce the light around the room,” says Breining. But placing one in the wrong spot can be almost as bad as not having one at all.

Put mirrors on walls perpendicular to windows, not directly across from them. Hanging a mirror directly opposite a window can actually bounce the light right back out the window.

6. Scale Artwork to Your Wall

“There are few things more ridiculous-looking than hanging dinky little art too high on the wall,” says Breining. The middle of a picture should hang at eye level. If one person is short and the other tall, average their heights.

Also take scale into account; for a large wall, go big with one oversize piece or group smaller pieces gallery-style. For the latter, don’t space the pictures too far apart; 2 to 4 inches between items usually looks best.

How to Sell a Car

1. Know the Market

Is your car going to be easy to sell? Is it a hot commodity? Or will you have to drop your price and search out additional avenues to sell it?

Here are a few general rules to answer these questions:

  • SUVs are in high demand right now and will likely command higher prices than sedans.
  • Family sedans will always be in demand by people who need basic inexpensive transportation.
  • The sale of convertibles and sports cars is seasonal. Sunny weather brings out the buyers. Fall and winter months will be slow.
  • Trucks and vans used for work are steady sellers and command competitive prices. Don’t underestimate their value.
  • Collector cars will take longer to sell and are often difficult to price. However, these cars can have unexpected value if you find the right buyer.

Your first step is to check classified ads to see how much other sellers are asking for your type of car. Keep in mind that dealers will have different prices than private-party listings. Make sure to sort by your year, make, model and trim level of your car to see how many similar vehicles are currently on the market. These are what your vehicle will be competing with, so take note of their condition, mileage, geographic location and selling price so you can list your car at a price that will sell it quickly.

2. Price Your Vehicle Competitively

To come up with an effective asking price, you’ll first need to find out what the car is worth and how much other people are asking for similar cars. Appraise your vehicle on Edmunds and pay attention to the “Private Party” price. This figure is adjusted for a number of factors including mileage, condition, options, and the region in which the vehicle is being sold.

An alternate method would be to get an instant offer from Edmunds. All you need to do is enter the details of your vehicle and you’ll get a firm trade-in offer, good at participating dealerships for seven days. Use this offer as a baseline for your asking price, or if you’re comfortable with the offer, you can accept it and skip the rest of the steps below.

There are always some exceptions to the rules of pricing, so you should follow your intuition. And be sure to leave a little wiggle room in your asking price. Ask for slightly more money than you are actually willing to accept. If you want to get $12,000 for the car, you should list the car at $13,500. People tend to negotiate in big chunks ($500-$1,000) rather than small increments ($100-$200). That way, when a person makes you a lower offer, it will be closer to your actual price rather than below it.

You may have noticed how creative used car dealers get in pricing cars. Their prices usually end in “995,” as in $12,995. Are we not supposed to notice that the car basically costs $13,000? There is a lot of psychology in setting prices. A product that doesn’t sell well at $20 might jump off the shelf at $19.95.

On the other hand, as a private-party seller, you don’t want to look like a car dealer. You might want to take a simple approach and set your price at a round figure such as $14,000 or $13,500.

3. Give Your Vehicle ‘Curb Appeal’

When people come to look at your car, they will probably make up their minds to buy it or not within the first few minutes. This is based on their first look at the car. So you want this first look to be positive. You want your car to have “curb appeal.”

Before you advertise your car for sale, make sure it looks clean and attractive. This goes beyond just taking it to the car wash. Here is a to-do list to help you get organized:

    • Wash and vacuum the car and consider having it detailed.
    • Make sure your car is both mechanically sound and free from dents, dings and scrapes.
    • Consider making low-cost repairs yourself rather than selling it as-is.
    • Remove all unnecessary items from inside the car. That way, when prospective buyers take a test drive, they can visualize the car as theirs.
    • Wipe the brake dust off the wheel covers and treat the tires with a tire gloss product.
    • Thoroughly clean the windows inside and out and all the mirrored surfaces.
    • Wipe down the dashboard and empty the ashtrays.
    • Have all your maintenance records ready to show prospective buyers.
    • If the car needs servicing or even a routine oil change, take care of that before putting it up for sale.
    • Have your mechanic check out the car and issue a report about its condition. You can use this to motivate a buyer who’s on the fence.
    • Order a vehicle history report and show it to the buyer to prove the car’s title is clean and the odometer reading is accurate.

4. Where to Advertise Your Vehicle

Now that your car is looking great and running well, it’s time to advertise it for sale. Classified ads are the preferred method, not only for convenience but also for their wider geographical reach.

Here are the main markets for advertising used cars:

  • Online classifieds: AutoTrader, Cars.com and CarGurus are effective and cast a wide net but can cost roughly $45 for a fully featured listing. Craigslist, Facebook Marketplace and eBay classifieds are free, but you’ll have to deal with a number of random callers — more than those on the paid sites.
  • Social media: Use Facebook and Twitter to let your circle know you are selling your car. Ask your contacts to spread the word.
  • Peer-to-peer sites: Companies such as Carvana, Tred and Zipflip connect buyers and sellers and are a growing presence in the used-car marketplace online. Each operates a little differently, so check the sites for details of their services. These can include car inspections, warranties and return policies for buyers.
  • Message boards: Many online car forums have classified sections in which you can list your car.
  • Word-of-mouth: Tell your friends, co-workers and family.
  • The car itself: It’s old-fashioned, but putting a “For Sale” sign in the car window can still be an effective way to sell it.

One last word of advice about advertising: If you run a classified ad, be sure you are available to take phone calls — and texts — from possible buyers. Many people won’t leave a message for a return call. So answer the phone or reply quickly to a text — and be polite. Creating a good first impression is the first step in getting buyers to see the car in person.

5. Create Ads That Sell

Think about what you are telling people when you write your ad. Little words convey a lot. Besides the price, your ad should also include the year, make, model and trim level of the car you are selling along with the mileage, color, condition and popular options. It also helps to state why you’re selling the car since it gives the ad a more personal feel.

When creating “For Sale” signs or putting an ad online, you have an opportunity to show how eager you are to sell the car. Do this with the following abbreviations and phrases:

Must sell!: This term often means the seller is leaving town and needs to dump the car at a fire sale price.

OBO: This stands for “or best offer” and it indicates that you are willing to entertain offers below the stated price. This usually conveys you are eager to sell the car.

Asking price: This phrase also communicates the feeling that you will negotiate, but it is one notch below OBO on the eagerness scale.

Firm: This word is used to rebuff attempts to negotiate. It indicates that you aren’t in a hurry to sell the car — you are most interested in getting your price.

6. Showing Your Vehicle

Many unexpected bumps in the road can arise while selling a used car. These can be handled easily if you are dealing with a reasonable person. So, as you are contacted by prospective buyers, use your intuition to evaluate them. If they seem difficult, pushy or even shady, wait for another buyer. With the right person, selling a used car should be simple.

Some sellers feel uncomfortable having buyers come to their house to see the car. However, you can generally screen buyers on the phone. If they sound suspicious, don’t do business with them. If you don’t want people knowing where you live, arrange to show the car at a park or shopping center near your home. But keep in mind that people will eventually see your address when you sign the title over to them. Read this article on How to Safely Sell Your Car for more detailed safety tips.

Keep in mind that when you sell your car, people will also be evaluating you. They will be thinking, “Here’s the person who’s owned this car for the past few years. Do I trust him or her?” Buyers will probably be uneasy about making a big decision and spending money. Put them at ease and answer their questions openly.

What To Do When Your Employer Discriminates Against You

Numerous employees on a daily basis feel discriminated against in their workplaces from their colleagues or their immediate bosses. It can be very shattering to experience discrimination in the workplace and many individuals who face it find it difficult to focus on their job and fail to meet expectations.

However, there are federal and provincial laws that avoid workplace discrimination, and you can hold your employer or your boss or your colleagues accountable for their deeds. While it does often get difficult to report discrimination, there are certain steps you can take to ensure that you get justice and the discrimination finally stops.

Be aware of your rights

Federal laws prohibit any sort of discrimination on the basis of a person’s age, gender, religion, race and disabilities. Your marital status or you being pregnant does not allow your employer to discriminate against you either. Federal laws also call for equal pay, good working conditions and safe work places for both genders.

Clarify the situation with your offender

Sometimes what you may consider discrimination is essentially just a misunderstanding or a mistake on the other party’s part. You should strongly consider clarifying the situation with the offensive party and to sort out the situation to make sure you do not make any wrongful claims on an innocent person. Chances are that you’d be able to arrive at a common conclusion and solve the issue.

Report the discriminatory behavior to your senior

You need to report about the discriminatory behavior to your seniors or your company management, or to a dedicated cell in your office that has been built for this purpose. Whenever the office’s management receives such a complaint, they are required by law to initiate an investigation and solve the issue. However, if you feel that the management isn’t taking an action, you may by all means proceed with legal action.

Be practical in presenting your case

Discrimination in the workplace is already a difficult thing to prove, and if you present a lot of emotions, feelings and hunches in you case, the deciding committee is likely to declare you simply a sensitive individual. Hence, you need to present your case with specific clear-cut issues, facts and focus on details to be taken seriously and to help the deciding committee understand the gravity of the situation.

Get in touch with an attorney

In order to file an employer discrimination case that is sure to get you compensation and justice, you need to get in touch with a legal counsel that is experienced in employer discrimination cases. Madsen Prestley & Parenteau is a legal counsel that is well known for its wins in civil discrimination lawsuits and also specialize in employer discrimination cases.

Make a record of all discriminating actions

You need to record all instances of discrimination from the very beginning. You should maintain a journal or diary and make a record regularly. This would help you build your case later on and improve your credibility in front of the deciding committee. Keep in mind that your notes should include the names, time, date and location of the people discriminating against you and of all those who were present there in the moment.
