FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
Straight answers to the questions we hear most. If yours isn't here, message Rhys.
What is the difference between accounts preparation and a tax return?
Your accounts show how the business performed over the year: income, costs, profit, and what it owns and owes. The tax return uses those figures to work out what you owe HMRC. For a limited company that is the CT600. For a sole trader it is your self assessment. RNE prepares both, so the numbers match.
When are my year-end accounts due?
For a private limited company, accounts are due at Companies House 9 months after your year end. Corporation tax is payable 9 months and 1 day after, and the CT600 return is due 12 months after. Sole traders work to the self assessment deadline of 31 January. Rhys will set out your dates when you start.
Do you file with Companies House and HMRC for me?
Yes. Once you have reviewed and approved the accounts, RNE files them with Companies House and submits the corporation tax return to HMRC. You get copies of everything filed.
Can I just have year-end accounts without bookkeeping?
Yes. Some clients keep their own books and only want the year-end. Others want both. What is included is agreed before you start, and the fixed fee matches that.
What do you need from me?
Your bank statements, sales and purchase records, and access to your software if you use it. If you are switching, Rhys will also ask your previous accountant for last year's accounts. You do not need a perfect set of records before the first chat.
I am late with my accounts. Can you still help?
Yes. Tell Rhys where things stand and which deadlines have passed. He will tell you what needs filing first and what penalties may apply, before any work starts.
