Bookkeeping
Good bookkeeping is like good housekeeping, stay on top of it and it isn't a daunting task. We try to encourage our clients to take an interest in the financial side of their business. It is very important to stay in touch with business performance, and through good bookkeeping we can advise clients how to keep track of their finances.
We recommend a variety of ways for clients to keep their book, dependant on their business size, type and the specific circumstances of the client.
We are able to offer a competitive service keeping all of a client's books for them, or regular checking, or anything in between.
H M Revenue and Customs set basic standards of bookkeeping that they expect tax payers to uphold. We can assist you with this and advise you on your current record keeping.
We will happily discuss your bookkeeping requirements free of charge, new clients and old alike. If we get you keeping good books it makes our job at the end of the year easier.

What is Annual Investment Allowance (AIA)?
The AIA is a form of capital allowance which offers tax relief at 100% on all qualifying expenditure on plant and machinery in the year of purchase. Currently the maximum you can deduct is £100,000. However, from 6th April 2012 this amount is being reduced to just £25,000.
There are exceptions to the plant and machinery that qualifies for AIA such as cars and plant and machinery gifted to your business.
AIA is adjusted for short or long accounting periods, and also for accounting periods that span the rates and dates of differing AIA.
