Don’t let compliance distract you from your business. Leave that to us and we will ensure your statutory accounts are filed within 4 months of your year end, giving you enough time to plan towards whatever corporation tax bill you may have at the year end. We monitor your deadline so you won’t have to remind us. Shortly before your year end, we will remind you to get your books in order in time for us to prepare your accounts. This gives you ample time to review your accounts and financial performance for the year before the accounts are filed with Companies House and HMRC.

We will always look for legitimate ways to minimise your tax liabilities. Our aim is to work as closely with you as possible in order to understand your business and exploit all available tax reliefs to your advantage.

Do you have employees and are worried about how to calculate PAYE and NIC’s, issue payslips and deal with SSP, SMP, SPP etc.? We can help relieve you of this burden. We will calculate your employees net pay and NIC’s, send their payslips to them and let you know your payroll liabilities to HMRC immediately the month ends or at your preferred payment date.

We will advise you on VAT registration and VAT schemes. Not all businesses should register for VAT until they have reached the threshold. It may be counterproductive, as this makes your selling price artificially more expensive to the final consumer. Depending on your client base, we will assess how VAT registration commercially and financially impacts on your business. We will then also look at the right scheme for you, that best suits your business and cash flow.

Perhaps you work in the construction industry or make use of building contractors? We will help you with registration, verification of subcontractors, filing your CIS returns and claiming any CIS suffered.

Do not leave your personal tax returns until the deadline. At SAS we act proactively to ensure your tax return is prepared on time to give you enough time to plan towards paying it. We will advise on how tax efficient you currently are and how we can improve your tax efficiency legitimately.

Does your limited company require changes to its directors, shareholders or registered office? Leave these little bits with us and we will take care of this for you. We will deal with the timely filing of your confirmation statement, so you don’t get struck off from Companies House.

This is a key area that could improve your business performance and help with your tax planning. Depending on your needs, we will prepare monthly or quarterly management accounts that help you track key ratios such as profitability, efficiency and liquidity of your business. Monitoring these can guide you in determining your credit terms with suppliers and key customers, how much you can extract from your business, the corporation tax liability to expect, and countless other management information.
