    Sole traders and partnerships need to produce accurate accounts to assess performance and for taxation purposes. We will advise on any potential areas of weakness in your business.

  • Capital Gains Tax eg sale of shares, property or businesses
  • Corporation Tax eg how to minimise liabilities.
  • Income Tax eg furnished holiday lettings, the IR 35 issue, etc
  • Inheritance Tax eg how you can arrange your affairs to avoid paying over £100,000 tax to the Revenue.

    Management accounts

    The implications of short term financial strategy can be the difference between success and failure for any smaller business. The production of regular management accounts assists dramatically in the decision making process.

    Regular management accounts can help identify a business' strengths, weaknesses and opportunities for improvement.
