Real Client Story
How we cut a Ashington business tax bill by £5,200
When an Ashington trades business came to us they were filing their own returns and missing a string of allowable costs, from equipment and software to home-office, travel and professional fees. They were also on the wrong VAT scheme and had never had their salary and dividend mix reviewed.
We rebuilt their bookkeeping on cloud software, claimed every legitimate expense, moved them onto the right VAT scheme and set a tax-efficient salary and dividend split. The result was a tax saving of £5,200 in the first year, with a clear fixed monthly fee and no more last-minute filing panic.
