Common questions

Can you take over from my current accountant?

Yes. We handle the handover, request the records we need and make sure nothing is missed in the switch.

Should I pay myself salary or dividends?

Usually a mix. Dividend tax is 10.75% at basic rate and 35.75% at higher rate, with a £500 allowance, so we model the best split for your situation.

Do you work with dormant companies?

Yes. Dormant accounts and confirmation statements are simple, and we keep them on time.

Which software do you use?

We specialise in Xero, and also work with QuickBooks, Sage and FreeAgent.
