Corporation tax services
Written by Ray Coman
UK tax law for companies is complex and constantly changing. HMRC charges penalties and interest for late filing of a Company Tax Return and late payment of corporation tax. Staying in compliance with the corporation tax rules can consume valuable management time and resources. As a small business owner or a contractor using a limited company there is a requirement to file a Company Tax Return every year and account to HMRC for the tax. Company Accounts that get filed with HMRC include a balance sheet. A balance sheet basically states what a company owns (assets) and what it owes (liabilties). Corporation tax is a liability at the year end. To prevent the company from being in debt it is a requirement to have sufficient assets, usually by way of cash in the company bank, to cover corporation tax at the year end. We can help calculate the tax and avoid the pitfall of unwittingly getting into 'debt' and suffering the negative tax implication.
