This is my response to the new HM Revenue & Customs initiative:
“Making Tax Digital”.
Broadly speaking, the plan is to have both Limited Companies and Individuals who are in self-assessment submitting quarterly reports.
So what does this mean?
- The end of self-assessment as we know it
- Quarterly reporting for not only Limited Companies but also all individuals who are within self-assessment. Not just the self-employed and Landlords but all individuals who are currently in self-assessment.
When is this due to happen?
In typical HM Revenue & Customs style this is due to be phased in over a number of years; initially it is just VAT that is affected but watch this space for more developments.
Does “Making Tax Digital” mean that my accountancy fees will go up?
No. I have set out my fees below which can be paid on a monthly basis so that I can assist with the new reports.
My Plan
Keep things simple and make my clients’ lives as easy as possible. So, as new software gets released I will review it so that I can make recommendations to my clients and the fees will be set.
My Fees Will Be As Follows:
Yearly | Monthly | |
Individuals | £150 (£125 + VAT) * | £12.50 |
Limited Companies | £420 (£350 + VAT) * | £35 |
VAT (per quarter) | £90 (£75 + VAT) * | £30 |
Payroll | £120 (£100 + VAT) ** | £10 |
Notes:
* This is based on a spreadsheet being used which itemised all your income and expenses. Should I need to do additional book-keeping then I will provide you with a quote during the free initial meeting.
** This quote is based on up to 2 employees who are on a fixed amount per week/month.
