Preparing for Your Annual Accounts
This briefing is aimed at smaller limited companies. Companies with an annual turnover of less than £5.6m and total assets (fixed and current) under £2.8m must file a set of accounts with HM Revenue & Customs and with Companies House.
When preparing annual accounts, almost all companies use an accountant. As long as you set up a few simple systems, generating the information the accountant needs is relatively simple and inexpensive. It can then be used to review and improve your business operations.
This briefing outlines:
- The basic information needed by your accountant.
- The main problem areas, including stock and payroll.
- How to use the annual accounts process to improve your business.
