Accounts and Bookkeeping

At the Everett Group, we aim to provide quality and value to our clients in all that we do. We tailor our service to meet your needs so that you can focus on what you do best, running your business. We can take care of all your bookkeeping and accounting needs, including the preparation of your annual accounts and resulting tax computations for an agreed fixed cost, with no surprises.

Bookkeeping

Accurate and timely bookkeeping underpins the compliance of your business accounts. The cost of maintaining a bookkeeping department in terms of personnel and software may not be a cost-efficient solution for your business. Our “hands-on” personal approach to our customers means that we will work with you to get a full understanding of your bookkeeping needs and then tailor our service to meet your requirements and budget. You may wish to outsource your full bookkeeping requirement or maintain just the sales ledger and purchase ledger. If you wish to keep the books yourself, we can help you set up the necessary accounting procedures and controls to ensure your accounts are maintained in an accurate, meaningful and compliant fashion. Accounts Preparation

Even if you perform your bookkeeping in-house, we can prepare your accounts to follow the legislative requirements for your business entity. Whether you are a company, partnership or sole trader HM Revenue & Customs will want information in a form that's convenient for them so they can assess the correct tax liabilities.
Your annual accounts are more than just the final books. In order to present an accurate trading picture for your business, they may need to be adjusted for stock, work in progress or bad debts. There may also be adjustments to the taxation computations required for example where items recorded in the accounts as an expense are not allowable as a tax deduction, or where there is a difference between the capital allowances and the method of depreciation used.

The Annual Accounts provide comprehensive management information that allows us to review your business operations with you to improve the profitability and efficiency of your businesses. Of course that doesn't stop us providing ongoing advice and support throughout the year. We aim to be your first choice, on hand business advisors, totally committed to helping you achieve your business objectives. Payroll

Anyone who takes on employees also takes on statutory responsibilities, including the collection and payment of PAYE and NIC on behalf of those employees. In fact, employers' payroll obligations have increased over the years with the introduction of various statutory payments during periods of absence, the processing of government social payments through payroll and the impact of ever changing employment legislation. For many businesses it is simply not cost effective to maintain their own payroll service and software.

We can provide a comprehensive and completely confidential payroll service, applying our professional up to date knowledge of employment law to the individual circumstances of your business. Our summaries and analysis of staff costs can feed into the management review of your business operations. In addition to the periodic payslips, we also complete all the statutory documentation including year end returns and employee benefits in kind forms. VAT

VAT is a complex tax and it is easy to pay the wrong amount. Pay too much and you have wasted valuable income. Pay too little and the penalties could be severe. In addition to the everyday management of input and output VAT there are VAT considerations when acquiring particular assets, for example cars or property for your business. Depending on your turnover there may also be alternative VAT accounting methods and rates available to your business. Cross-border and international Internet based activities further complicate the VAT rules.
