Limited Companies

As a Limited Company you benefit from an efficient tax structure and limit your liabilities should your business ever fall into difficulties. You have the flexibility to draw a salary as well as receive regular dividends. Managing the finances of a limited company involves more work than if you were a Sole Trader or Partnership.

Staying up to date with company rules and regulations can be very time consuming, we work alongside you to remove this burden and allow you to work on your main business activities.

Accounting

We will prepare all the necessary documentation for your year end including full and abbreviated sets of accounts.

The submission of your final accounts to Companies House is critical and needs to be done on time to avoid late filing penalties. We can submit abbreviated accounts that keep some of detail of your trading information confidential. All of our annual accounts and returns are prepared using up to date accounting software, ensuring the submissions are accurate, from the information provided.

Bookkeeping

Recording day-to-day purchases and logging your invoices takes up valuable time, time that may be better spent on your actual business activities. Take advantage of our bookkeeping service and we will do everything for you. You will always be up to date with your accounts and have a much clearer view of your financial position. We process thousands of purchases and invoices each month, freeing up hours of work for our clients’.

Tax

Completing tax returns is another time consuming task that distracts you from running your business. Your return is not always straight forward and unless like us you are completing them over and over again they can take a while to complete correctly. Let us take care of the tax returns for you and your fellow directors.

VAT

If you are registered for VAT, taking care of your quarterly returns and submitting them on time can be very time consuming. This is particularly onerous once you have hundreds of monthly entries to account for. If we are managing your bookkeeping we will generate your VAT Return from our Sage software and file it electronically direct to HMRC. Let us take care of your VAT and you will save time and never be late with your submissions.

Payroll

You may already have employees or be planning to expand, managing the associated payroll of your business and keeping up to date with the latest government legalisation can be challenging. We operate monthly payrolls for many other businesses just like your’s, handling new-starts, sickness pay, maternity pay and unfortunately in some circumstances redundancies and dismissals. Having 100% accurate data is critical for you and your employees confidence in your business.

Credit Control

The cash flow of your business is critical to your success or failure. One of the key elements to a strong cash flow is being paid on time by your customers’. We manage Credit Control for many clients’ who simply don’t have the time or skills to professionally ‘chase’ payments. We build relationships with your customers and ensure regular communications take place between us and them. Invoices, credit notes and statements are distributed and followed up by email and telephone when required. In our experience good communication with your customers’ accounts departments is the best method of avoiding any bad debts.

Company Secretarial

As a Limited Company you are required to maintain company registers and submit documentation to Companies House. Failure to make these submissions on time will result in unavoidable penalties, that in some cases can be onerous. If you allow us to manage your Company Secretarial work all of your submissions will be made on time. Our systems are directly linked to Companies House so all of your submissions are made electronically. We can also act as your Company Secretary, and if required we can provide your company with its Registered Office address.
