Help!
I'm setting up a cycle to work scheme for my employees (2 of whom have indicated they will join).
I'm going to self administer it as this will give us the best buying power.
The problem is with vat.
1) the total cost of the bikes will be less than 2k, so no vat will be reclaimed on frs
2) the employees will salary sacrifice the cost of the bikes over 12 months, then nominally rent them for 3 years and then keep them
3) I believe I have to add output vat on the salary sacrifice due to a European Union ruling in 2012 and pay it to hmrc with my usual vat
4) this means the company is paying vat twice does it not, once on the purchase of the bike. then again on the salary sacrifice
Anyone clear this up, or just confirm my logic? Thanks
