Construction Services Company | Expert Accounting Services

File previous VAT returns, CIS, and PAYE.

Reconcile accounts receivable, accounts payable and ledgers, so that management know the actual balances due to suppliers/HMRC.

Prepared summaries of all payments made to subcontractors.

Filed pending CIS returns.

Ran the payroll.

Filed pending VAT returns.

Reconciled full accounts.

Prepared and submitted the annual accounts and tax return.

Results

The company’s bookkeeping and accounts were brought up to date.

All statutory payments were made and further interest on the outstanding payments has been avoided.

The directors were able to get accurate reporting about their business’s financial performance.
