Support that fits
Choose a tax return service or regular accounting help.
Running a shop, takeaway or service business can leave little time for the accounts. We help business owners in Sparkhill organise their records and manage the accounting work that comes with daily trading.
You might need someone to handle the books each month, prepare your year-end accounts or review how your records are kept. Tell us what you currently do yourself and where you need support. We will agree the work and fee before getting started.
Discuss your business accountsCash, card payments and delivery orders can arrive through different systems. Keep till summaries, card settlement reports, platform statements and purchase invoices so the sales and costs can be brought together.
We help reconcile those records with your bank transactions. This makes it easier to explain fees, refunds and timing differences when preparing the books.
Get bookkeeping supportIf you work for yourself, your tax return starts with understanding what you earned and what you spent on the business. We help sole traders prepare their accounts, review relevant expenses and complete Self Assessment.
Tell us about other income too, such as employment, dividends or rent. We bring the relevant figures together and explain your tax calculation before you approve the return for submission.
Get help with your tax returnYou can ask us to prepare a single tax return without taking on a wider accounting package. If your records need catching up first, we will explain the extra work involved.
For ongoing support, we can agree bookkeeping alongside your sole trader accounts. Keeping records current makes it easier to answer questions while the transactions are still familiar.
Sole trader accountingDriving for several operators or delivery platforms can mean several sets of statements. We help you bring the relevant income, platform charges and business records together for your accounts and tax return.
Keep your statements, receipts and mileage records, and tell us whether the vehicle is owned, financed or rented. We can review the appropriate treatment of business vehicle costs and any private use.
Discuss your driver accountsThe amount paid into your bank may reflect fees, adjustments or other deductions. Platform statements help explain how the payment was calculated and what should appear in your records.
Vehicle expense claims also depend on your circumstances and previous claims. Ask us to check the approach before assuming that mileage and all running costs can be claimed together.
Ask about your driver tax returnIt is worth checking your VAT position as sales grow. Compulsory registration can depend on taxable turnover over a rolling 12-month period, or on what you expect in the next 30 days alone. Waiting for the annual accounts can leave the check too late.
We help review registration requirements, organise VAT records and prepare returns. For retail and food businesses, tell us what you sell and how orders are fulfilled so the relevant VAT treatment can be considered.
Ask about VAT supportYour bookkeeping should connect sales records, purchase invoices and bank transactions. We can discuss how to handle refunds, platform fees and other adjustments without counting income or expenses twice.
If you already have a backlog, tell us the periods involved and any approaching deadlines. We will review the records before agreeing a catch-up plan.
Bring your bookkeeping up to dateYou may need one service or several working together. We explain what is included so you can decide which tasks to hand over.
