Hertfordshire Accountancy Services
As chartered accountants, we can also assist with your core accounting requirements, particularly if getting a handle on these is fundamental to progress. We aim to provide practical, jargon-free services to help you get your head around the figures. Can we assist you with annual accounts, VAT and tax returns, payroll or cash flow forecasts?
Accounts
In years gone by, people used to hand their books to their accountant and then wait and see if they’ve made a profit for the year.
We believe that, as you have to have them anyway, then let’s make the accounts of your business a useful tool. This could mean some management accounts during the year to see how your business is progressing and what your tax liability may be looking like.
Self Assessment
Self assessment can be a time consuming and often confusing for busy individuals.
Many taxpayers are penalised by HMRC each year it can also be even more costly if:
- Deadlines are missed
- Incorrect returns are delivered
- Appropriate records are not retained or presented
We aim to help you comply with all of these requirements by offering a comprehensive Individual Self Assessment service, including:
- Calculating your tax liability
- Completing and filing your tax return on your behalf
- Advising you when various payments are due and how much to pay
- Advising on appropriate record retention
- Introducing you to any relevant tax saving ideas
- Representing you in the event of your being selected for investigation by HMRC
Bookkeeping & Accounting
We can relieve you and your staff of an enormous burden by taking care of all your bookkeeping and accounting needs, including the preparation of your annual accounts.
Our first step is to work with you so we can gain a full understanding of your business. We then tailor our approach to your requirements so we can provide exactly the service you need.
Besides your core bookkeeping, we can also maintain your VAT records, and take on short-term projects to relieve your staff of any temporary overload.
But perhaps the most important part of this service can be the preparation of management accounts. These are vital to the continued success of your business. We discuss your requirements with you and provide you with tailored information and constructive advice on a regular basis.
Business Start-up
Most people who start up in business do so because they have a good business proposition and the enterprise and commitment to see it through, not because they are experts in the legal, financial, and fiscal aspects of running a business.
Indeed, these matters can often seem daunting, and even off-putting, to the budding entrepreneur. The good news is that you do not need to be an expert in these fields to succeed in business. All you need is the support of a team of trained experts.
That’s where we fit in. Bring us your business ideas and we’ll help you to evaluate them in a constructive and realistic manner. We can also help you:
- Decide on the most suitable structure for your business – sole trader, partnership, or limited company
- Prepare a business plan, cashflow projections, budgets, and trading forecasts
- Assess your finance requirements, advise on the best sources of finance, and draw up the necessary proposals
- Establish a good working relationship with your bank
- Complete any registration procedures with Companies House, Inland Revenue, or Customs and Excise
- Deal with company secretarial issues
