Help for Shops and Hospitality Businesses
Shops, cafés and other customer-facing businesses have to process a large number of transactions.
They may receive payments via multiple channels including cash, cards, online platforms and delivery services. Keeping these records together is important for bookkeeping and VAT.
We can organise sales information, supplier invoices, expenses and bank transactions. These records can then be used when preparing VAT returns and annual accounts.
Accounting for Trades and Contractors
Trades and contractors may work across several areas rather than from one fixed business location.
Their records can include tools, materials, travel costs, vehicles and payments from different customers. Contractors and subcontractors may also have Construction Industry Scheme responsibilities.
We help organise these records and prepare the relevant accounts and tax returns.
Support is available to sole traders and limited company contractors.
Tax Returns for Landlords in Stalybridge
Property income may need to be reported to HMRC through Self-Assessment.
We help landlords record rent received and relevant property expenses. We then use this information to prepare the property accounts and tax return.
Our accounting services are available to individual landlords and limited property companies in Stalybridge.
The accounting treatment will depend on how the property is owned and used.
Keeping Track of Deadlines
Different accounting deadlines may apply throughout the year.
VAT and payroll submissions can be due regularly. Annual accounts, Corporation Tax and Self-Assessment follow separate timescales.
We explain which deadlines apply to you and what information is needed.
Preparing the records early can give you more time to review the figures and arrange any tax payment. It also reduces the pressure caused by last-minute work.
Help With Overdue Records
Bookkeeping can fall behind during a busy period or after a change within the business.
Older transactions may become harder to identify. Invoices or receipts may also be missing.
We can review the information you have and prepare a list of anything else required. The next step will depend on the amount of work and whether any filing deadlines have passed.
It is better to address incomplete records before another deadline arrives.

We also explain which records are needed and when they should be provided. Support can be arranged for one accounting task or throughout the year.
