Accounts
Relieve the stress of dealing with the Revenue service by allowing us to take care of annual accounts and taxation records to ensure you’re fully compliant. We’re also on hand to explain tax issues in straightforward terms, so you’re aware of what you need to pay and when.
We’ll look after all of your company compliance including preparation of financial statements, as well as calculation and preparation of your corporation tax returns. We’re also happy to advise on how to maximise profit and grow your company.
Tax Advice/Planning
Having a strategy that enables you to plan for tax liabilities is crucial. We can help with your tax compliance requirements, working closely with you so that you pay the least amount of tax within the law by ensuring all applicable tax reliefs and allowances are being utilised.
We always take the opportunity to consider tax planning in order that you can plan ahead and take any necessary action now that will benefit you down the line.
Auditing
There are various circumstances where you may need an audit. When you go to raise finance, lenders typically look for audited accounts as evidence of your performance over several years. Similarly, if you plan to sell your business, potential purchasers look for the independent verification that audited accounts provide.
For some businesses, audit is a statutory requirement. Others need an audit in certain circumstances, for example if they fail to file an annual return on time.
