Established in 1981, we have seen continued growth since then, driven by an ever increasing number of clients who appreciate the personal service and friendly atmosphere from Graham and his accountancy staff.
Initial meetings are free of charge and we are more than happy to visit you on the first occasion and when necessary to provide you with a flexible, personal service.
We provide sole traders, small businesses, and limited companies with a full range of accountancy and tax services at a very affordable rates. In many cases, where individuals may not be aware of all tax allowances and expenses that can be claimed, they can save money by reduced taxes and, of course, save the hassle of form filling and dealing with HMRC yourself.
Every company must submit a snapshot of financial information to Companies House and HMRC every year. We will ensure that your accounts are complete, accurate, and submitted on time.
Of the many important matters to consider when embarking on any business venture, one of the most significant is whether to set up as a limited company or to simply trade as self employed, sole trader, or partnership if there are more than one of you.
Whether you are self employed, a sole trader, partnership, or company director, you must submit a tax return every year and we complete these for our clients online shortly after the annual accounts are finished.
We offer a complete payroll service, and your employees can be paid on a weekly, fortnightly, or monthly basis. We will also complete all forms, payslips, and returns.
We are also fully prepared for the new RTI system which has been introduced this year.
A single director and shareholder can set up as a limited company from as little as £100 +VAT.
Registration as a partnership will be necessary when two or more people run a business together other than as a limited company.
Tax returns also have to be completed by higher paid employees or those with significant investment or rental income.
Even if you have let property which is not currently making a profit it can be beneficial to produce accounts and tax in order to establish the amount of losses to carry forward as this can potentially reduce future tax liabilities.
Good bookeeping is essential for all good businesses. We can provide advice and assistance for regular book keeping, and also offer a full VAT service where required.
If you wish to keep things simple and do not require a limited company then you should register as self employed within three months of commencement.
You can always 'go limited' later when profits increase and you want to minimise your tax and national insurance costs.
This applies most commonly to sales of property other than your main residence where the profit is in excess of the annual exemption. We can help you to calculate your correct liability and complete the tax return online.
