    Dear sir,

    When a company makes donations to a charity for promotional purposes then does that count towards trading expense or as QCD?

    thank you sir.

    If a small donation is made to a local charity it is treated as an allowable expense against trading profits – otherwise a charitable donation made by a company is treated as a QCD – the fact that the company may gain “goodwill” through their generosity is not an issue
