Corporation Tax (CT - UK Only)

The tax paid by a limited company on its profits. At present this is calculated at year end and due within 9 months of that date. From April 1999 Advanced Corporation Tax was abolished and large (UK) companies now pay CT in instalments. Small and medium-sized companies are exempted from the instalment plan.
