Are you thinking of setting up your own business? Confused about where to start? At Atkinson Accounts we believe the best place to start is the business type. Is a sole trade of a limited company the answer for you? This doesn’t just apply to start ups! Regardless of what stage of its life cycle.
My accounts are filed, do I really need to keep my records?
In short, yes! Why? HMRC are able to carry out their investigation’s years after your submissions. If they are to investigate the amount owed, they will need your records! You can receive a fine for failure to comply with keeping your records for the required amount of time, so it is important you get this.
Is your small business ready for the new HMRC Making Tax Digital requirements?
Under new HMRC regulations, almost all UK VAT registered businesses need to comply with new, digital record-keeping requirements as part of the “Making Tax Digital” (MTD) programme. The “Making tax digital” programme is designed to streamline reporting processes for businesses. The end plan is to replace the traditional paper trail with a digital one, directly.
