Worth knowing
Rules that come up in this work
Late filing penalties
Penalties are the clearest reason to work to deadlines. A Self Assessment return one day late costs £100 regardless of whether any tax is due; three months late adds £10 a day. Late company accounts start at £150 and reach £1,500, and double if the previous year was also late. None of this is negotiable afterwards except through a narrow reasonable-excuse appeal.
Making Tax Digital for Income Tax
The biggest change to Self Assessment in a generation is Making Tax Digital for Income Tax, now live for higher-earning sole traders and landlords and arriving for the rest in stages. Quarterly updates are due by 7 August, 7 November, 7 February and 7 May, built from digital records. The practical consequence is that spreadsheet-and-shoebox bookkeeping is ending for anyone above the threshold.
The VAT registration threshold
The £90,000 VAT threshold is measured over any twelve consecutive months, which is why a strong quarter can tip a business over unexpectedly. Registration must follow within thirty days of the end of the month the threshold was crossed. Below the threshold, voluntary registration is worth considering when customers are VAT-registered businesses and costs carry VAT.
Corporation Tax rates and marginal relief
Companies pay Corporation Tax at 19% on profits up to £50,000 and 25% on profits over £250,000. Between those figures marginal relief applies, producing an effective rate that rises gradually and a marginal rate of 26.5% on each pound in the band. The thresholds are divided by the number of associated companies, so a director with two companies has thresholds of £25,000 and £125,000 for each.
Salary versus dividends
Paying yourself from a company involves two routes with different tax treatment. Salary through payroll is a company expense and builds a National Insurance record; dividends come from post-tax profit at lower personal rates. Undocumented drawings that are neither become director's loans, with a 35.75% section 455 charge if not repaid within nine months of the year end.
Director's loan accounts
A director's loan account records money moving between a director and the company that is not salary or dividend. If the director owes the company money nine months and one day after the year end, the company pays section 455 tax at 35.75% of the balance, refundable only when the loan is repaid. Loans over £10,000 are also a benefit in kind unless interest is charged at HMRC's official rate.
Switching accountants
You can switch accountant at any point in the year. The new firm requests clearance and your records from the old one, which cannot withhold your own documents though it may hold its own working papers until its fees are settled. Agent authorisations with HMRC and Companies House are transferred, and the next deadline is picked up without a gap.
Questions
Cash-Flow Forecasting questions from Green Street Green
What happens after the forecast is delivered?
You receive the model, a briefing call to walk through it, and a written note of the assumptions and the pinch points we see. You can run it yourself from there, or take the £99 monthly refresh so we keep it live. Many clients start with a one-off forecast and move to the retainer once they see its value.
How quickly can you produce a forecast?
A 13-week forecast within five working days of receiving your data; a 12-month forecast with scenarios within ten. Funding packs depend on the lender's format but typically two weeks. If you have a deadline for an application, tell us when you book and we plan backwards from it.
Can a forecast show me whether I can afford a hire or a purchase?
Yes, that is one of its main uses. We add the hire or purchase as a scenario and show the cash effect month by month, including the point at which it pays for itself if it does. Decisions that look fine on a profit basis often fail on cash timing, and the forecast shows where.
How do seasonal businesses use forecasting?
To see the trough. Seasonal businesses typically make their profit in a few months and spend the rest of the year surviving on it, with VAT and tax payments falling in the quiet period. The 12-month forecast shows how deep the trough goes and whether a facility is needed to bridge it, well before the bank does.
What is a 13-week rolling forecast?
A week-by-week projection of cash in and cash out for the next quarter, built from your debtor book and payment patterns, your creditors and their terms, payroll, rent, loan repayments and every tax date, giving the forecast bank balance at the end of each week. It is the standard tool for managing short-term cash and is refreshed as actuals arrive.
How is the £199 forecast built?
From your bookkeeping and bank data, your aged debtors and creditors, your payroll, your known commitments and the tax calendar. We analyse how quickly your customers actually pay rather than when they are due, which is where most forecasts go wrong, and we document every assumption so you can change it. You receive the model and a short briefing.
Which deadlines matter most for cash-flow forecasting?
The next four dates that apply to cash-flow forecasting are shown at the top of this page, calculated from today. For Green Street Green clients we diarise every one of them from the day you join and send reminders before each, so the work is done in good time rather than in the last week before a penalty.
How do I get started from Green Street Green, Bromley?
