Everything in Our Year-End Service

Statutory Financial Accounts

Full statutory accounts including profit and loss, balance sheet, notes and director's report — all prepared to the applicable UK accounting standard.

Companies House Filing

Accounts filed with Companies House electronically, well before the 9-month deadline, ensuring your company avoids automatic late filing penalties.

Corporation Tax Return (CT600)

Your corporation tax computation and CT600 filed with HMRC, with all available reliefs and allowances claimed to minimise your company's liability.

Tax Planning Review

After every year-end we review your tax position to identify opportunities — from capital allowances to R&D credits — to reduce next year's bill.

Financial Analysis

We present your accounts in plain English with a clear explanation of what the numbers mean — key ratios, trends, and comparisons to prior years.

Deadline Management

We track all statutory deadlines — accounts, confirmation statement, corporation tax — and remind you well in advance so nothing ever slips through.

Our Year-End Process

1. Gather Records

We request all necessary records — bookkeeping data, bank statements, expense receipts. If we handle your bookkeeping, this step is largely automatic.

2. Prepare Accounts

We prepare your statutory accounts, calculate the corporation tax liability, and identify all available allowances and reliefs to minimise your bill.

3. File and Report

After your approval, we file everything with Companies House and HMRC, and present you with a clear summary of your financial year.

Year-End Questions Answered

Do I need to file accounts with Companies House every year?

Yes. All UK limited companies must file annual accounts with Companies House within 9 months of their accounting year-end. Failure to do so results in automatic penalties starting at £150, increasing the longer the delay. We manage all filing deadlines for you.

What is the current corporation tax rate?

As of April 2023, the main rate is 25% for profits over £250,000. Companies with profits up to £50,000 pay 19% (small profits rate). Marginal relief applies for profits between £50,000 and £250,000. We calculate your liability accurately and claim all available reliefs.

What accounting standard do you use?

For most small companies we use FRS 105 (micro-entity) or FRS 102 Section 1A (small companies), depending on your size and circumstances. Both allow simplified reporting. We advise on the most appropriate standard for your company.

Can you take over from my previous accountant?

Absolutely. Switching is straightforward. We handle professional clearance, contact your previous accountant for all necessary information, and take over all HMRC authorisations. You don’t need to do anything except sign a letter of engagement.

What if my company is dormant?

Even dormant companies must file dormant accounts with Companies House annually. We handle dormant company accounts at a reduced fee, ensuring your company remains in good standing with both Companies House and HMRC.
