Affordable accountancy services designed around you

You and your business would benefit from our timely forensic approach, as we ensure you meet HMRC and Companies House filing deadlines with a ship shape set of accounts.

Your annual accounts are an invaluable barometer for overall business health and a tool which you should be using all the time to help you operate more efficiently.

And with our ‘5-month rule’, you benefit from an earlier submission of accounts which gives you all the financial information you need to plan for the coming year, and make any quick effective changes that may be required.

We work with you to identify areas where you can make significant savings or tap into allowable expenses or tax relief opportunities to benefit your business.

Knowing what you can claim and when, and also what type of expenses are disallowed under HMRC rules.

Our ‘5-month’ rule means you can use your accounts to plan for the future with much greater clarity. It also ensures you comply and steer clear of penalties and fines.

Did you know you could benefit from tax credits for introducing a new service or bringing a new product to market?

R&D tax credits are not the preserve of multi-national companies.

Many businesses miss a trick because they are unaware of their entitlement to Research & Development (R&D) Tax Credits. This could greatly reduce your company’s tax bill.

We can help you decide whether you have an R&D project which qualifies for tax relief, credits or a refund from the Inland Revenue. We’ll also help you with the appropriate documentation.

Do you know when you should be undertaking an audit and how to go about it in the most efficient way?

The end process, results in your annual accounts receiving a statutory independent audit report, which confirms your company’s compliant with its Companies Act requirements.

Many charities and organisations with charitable status are simply unaware of what is expected of them in terms of ensuring that their accounts are in good order for HMRC and Charities Commission scrutiny.

We will work with you to check on all the figures and fully prepare you for independent examination or filing of accounts, in line with the Charities Act.
