FAQs

What do I need to provide for you to prepare year end accounts?
We tailor our involvement to each client. We are able to prepare financial statements from your accounting records on systems such as Xero or Sage, or they can be prepared using other sources like your business bank statements.
What is a compliant set of accounts for Companies House?
Companies House has varying requirements depending on the size of your business, the level of activity in your business and the accounting standards which the accounts are prepared under. Some businesses are able to benefit from reduced disclosure – and we’ll guide you accordingly.
Is the profit before tax in the accounts what I will have to pay Corporation Tax on?
The taxable profit in the accounts forms the basis of the Corporation Tax computation before adjustments are made for items such as depreciation or R&D. Once these adjustments are made, this leaves us with a figure from which Corporation Tax is calculated.
I don’t understand the difference between a profit and loss and a balance sheet?
A profit and loss, also referred to as an income statement, shows the performance of your business over the period which is being reported. The balance sheet, also referred to as the statement of financial position, is a snapshot of the business at the date of the reporting period.
What is the difference between audited and unaudited accounts?
Audited accounts are subject to a statutory audit performed by an independent auditor and only apply to certain sized businesses and those which fall under specific criteria. The vast majority of small businesses won’t need an audit.
Once draft accounts are prepared, can any adjustments be made?
Depending on the business, and the records which have been kept, we will discuss any potential adjustments which can be made to your accounts. This might include an allowance for bad debts or an inclusion for work in progress, together with any expenses which might have been paid for personally by the directors.
