You definitely need a plan which focuses on the things that underpin your success.

As a client of The Accounting Factory we will assist you in writing your plan.

HMRC have been given powers to investigate situations where they feel that tax may have been underpaid. The Accounting Factory aims to ensure that clients pay the correct amount of tax and that appropriate records are kept in the event of an investigation. Most clients of The Accounting Factory are insured against the fees involved should an investigation take place. Along with this clients get free telephone support which covers employment law and health and safety.
