Has your business grown to the point that you need someone managing the finance aspect of your business, but you don't want the risks and complications of having a full time, employed, in house Finance Director?.
We use a mixture of Cloud Solutions, document sharing, on site visits and off site communications to offer you the service of an FD at a fraction of the cost.
There is less risk and complication for you, as well as no redundancy and HR issues, no worries about covering holidays, whether there is enough work there to fill their time and also takes away the hassle of keeping up to date with new regulations and compliance issues.

At the end of its financial year, your limited company must prepare full ('statutory') annual accounts.
You then use this information to file your accounts with Companies House and work out your Corporation Tax payable.
The statutory accounts are prepared from the company's prime records at the end of your company's financial year.
You must send copies of the statutory accounts to shareholders, HMRC, Companies House and people who can go to the general meetings.

You must keep records of your business income and expenses for your tax return if you're self-employed as a sole trader or a partner in a business partnership.
You'll also need to keep records of your personal income.
If you're the nominated partner in a partnership, you must also keep records for the partnership.
When deciding what you can claim as a tax deduction, you may claim everything that is 'wholly and exclusively for business'.

If you didn't send an on-line return last year, allow extra time (up to 20 working days) as you'll need to register first.
If you get an email or letter from HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) telling you send a return, you must send it - even if you don't have any tax to pay.
