Audit & Accounting
The preparation of accounts coupled
with a rigorous audit are at the core of services we provide.
We take a hands-on approach to
helping directors or business owners fulfil their responsibilities
to prepare and submit accounts to Companies House, HM Revenue &
Customs and other regulatory bodies.
In addition,
a set of professionally prepared accounts will often be required by
creditors, banks and other financial institutions in support of
applications for credit facilities.
Our technical expertise is
complemented by commercial awareness and sector-specific knowledge
that means we can present your accounts and annual report in a way
that creates a positive image of your business.
The format of accounts and
the interpretation of financial reporting standards are exacting
and complex. Our partner-led teams will ensure that your accounts
comply with all current requirements. Advanced software ensures
that the process is highly efficient so that we spend more time
interpreting the results and less on processing the
numbers.
This enables us to identify
potential problem areas and spot potential opportunities to improve
your business performance.
For those businesses
requiring an audit, the key to its effectiveness is:
- getting to understand your business at an early stage
- reviewing your business processes and financial and
management systems
- testing the effectiveness of those systems
- discussing any problems and opportunities with
you
- helping you to implement agreed solutions
The audit process often identifies
areas where further detailed work may be required including tax
planning and compliance in areas such as benefits in kind or VAT.
We can bring in expert advisors from our specialist teams to review
those areas and provide top quality advice accordingly.
