Duport Accountants Ltd

All you need to know

what's so important about accounts anyway?

Companies have to pay taxes! Not much fun, but very much a fact. In order to pay taxes correctly, you have to know precisely how much stuff you have bought and sold.

Losing control of your profit and loss can lead to the failure of your business. You will regularly be faced with decisions such as moving office, taking on staff and buying equipment or stock. The only way you can make smart decisions, is when you know all the facts.

Company owners need to know how much money they may pay themselves in dividends. If you don't know, you could be breaking the law by taking too much.

what are my legal obligations?

As mentioned above, you are legally obliged to pay taxes on any profits you make.

If your turnover is in excess of £70,000, it's likely you also have to charge (and reclaim) VAT on anything you sell and buy. It's a little more complicated than that, but your Duport Accountant can tell you more.

You have to pay people you employ correctly (including yourself). This means getting PAYE tax figures correct, including national insurance contributions.

You have to let Companies House and HMRC know how you are doing. Each year you have to submit complete and accurate annual accounts.

will my accounts be handled by qualified accountants???

Yes. Definitely.

are those real UK based accountants that I can pick up the phone and talk to?

That's right!

so what is it really going to cost me? I mean REALLY going to cost me?

It will cost you precisely what it says on the quote form (on the right). No extra charges, fees or surprises. We charge by the month, and that's it.
