For Business

 

Business Start Ups

When embarking on a new business venture, putting in place the correct initial structure is key to success.  For clients wishing to set up a new business, we can assist with:

• Identifying the most suitable trading vehicle.
• Preparing business plans, cash flow projections, trading forecasts and budgets.
• Completing of all statutory registration procedures with Companies House or H M Revenue & Customs (HMRC).
• Advising on the day to day financial record keeping required.

 

Accounts Preparation

For Limited Companies we prepare the financial accounts in accordance with the requirements of Companies House.  We also prepare financial statements for sole proprietors, and partnerships.

At the year end you can hand us your bookkeeping records in whatever format you choose.  Using your records we will prepare formal year end accounts suitable for HMRC and Companies House. We will also offer advice where necessary to help improve the record keeping.   In addition, we will prepare the business tax return as required.  Finally, we will ensure that all necessary forms and resolutions are correctly filed with HMRC and the Companies House on a timely basis.  As a result our clients can relax in the knowledge that their business compliance is managed to the highest standards.

We can also prepare quarterly or six monthly management accounts and discuss the progress of the business with you throughout the year.  Our services include cashflow forecasting and budget preparation. Therefore, you will always be in control of the finances.

 

Business Tax Planning

We offer a range of services to help you minimise your tax liabilities.   These include:

• Identifying the most tax effective structure for the business.
• Ensuring full advantage is taken of tax opportunities and reliefs (including those specific to your industry).
• Achieving the optimum capital or revenue tax treatment.
• Ensuring full revenue compliance, including corporation tax self-assessment.
• Acting on your behalf in any discussions with the tax authorities.
• Advising on VAT Registration as well as assisting with VAT Returns.

 

Strategic Planning

All businesses must plan ahead.  However, it can be difficult to step away from the day to day management and consider the future. We have considerable expertise in financial management and can help with identifying strengths and weaknesses.  This will help to protect against threats and maximise opportunities (SWOT analysis).

As a result, you can ensure that no opportunities are missed, not just now but also in planning for the future.

 

Company Formation Services

We offer a complete formation service ensuring that everything is compliant with the current Company Law regulations.   In addition, we will ensure that everything is correctly recorded at Companies House at the time of formation.  We will also register the business with HMRC and any other body as required.
