Driving informed decisions
When it comes to managing your accounts, we’ve got you covered.
We seamlessly blend compliance with insightful financial data to benefit small businesses and their owners. Just like you, we’re a small business, so we fully grasp the day-to-day challenges you encounter. While annual accounts are a statutory requirement, we believe they should be more than a mere obligation. When meticulously crafted in a timely, cost-effective manner, they become invaluable tools for informed decision-making.
Our approach goes beyond number-crunching. We ensure you understand the profit figures and provide services such as timely submissions, iXBRL tagging for HMRC, micro-entity and abbreviated accounts for Companies House. Importantly, we help you avoid the pitfalls of late filing penalties and business disruptions.

Management accounts are crucial for making informed business decisions as they provide detailed financial and statistical information about your business operations. While there is no legal requirement in the UK to prepare management accounts, businesses often prepare them monthly or quarterly to keep a close eye on their financial performance and to make timely strategic decisions.
Limited company owners must submit accounts to Companies House within 9 months after the financial year ends and pay any corporation tax to HMRC in the same period. Additionally, corporation tax must be submitted to HMRC within 12 months of the company’s year-end.
Accountants typically need a record of all business transactions, including receipts and payments, and company bank statements to verify completeness. While traditionally these were paper-based, nowadays a link to accounting software like Xero, FreeAgent, or QuickBooks is commonly sufficient to begin the process.
If company accounts are not filed, the company will ultimately be struck off, and all its assets, including bank balances, properties, and vehicles, will be transferred to the Crown. While it is possible to reinstate the company, it is a time-consuming and expensive process that is easily preventable.
