Accounts, Audit & Tax Compliance
Antony J. Holdsworth & Co provides a full compliment of accountancy and taxation compliance solutions for SME clients.
Despite a government pledge to reduce red-tape for small and medium sized businesses (SMEs), the compliance burden for SMEs in the UK seems to be greater than ever. Amazingly, even a small limited company registered for VAT and paying only 1 employee may need to file up to 27 statutory documents per year. That’s not to mention preparing minutes and notices if dividends have been paid.
Our accountancy and taxation compliance solutions help our clients protect their businesses and wealth from penalties and interest by ensuring compliance deadlines are always met, by reporting tax and financial events in accordance with current legislation, guidelines and case law, and by mounting robust defences against the authorities where appropriate.
Our accountancy and taxation compliance solutions include:
- Statutory accounts for LLP’s and limited companies
- Auditing
- Annual accounts for sole traders and partnerships
- Corporate tax returns
- Self Assessment
- Payroll and employer’s year end returns
- VAT returns
- Offshore disclosures
- IR35 Solutions (see our section on IR35 Solutions)
- Bookkeeping
- Company secretarial service
- Registered office service
- Company formations
- Company dissolutions
- Tax enquiry defence (see our section on Tax Consultancy)

Proactive Advice
While looking after our clients’ compliance requirements, we are proactive in offering them ideas and opportunities that can help them increase their profits and wealth. Whether this be unclaimed capital allowances, a VAT refund following new case law, tax planning solutions, wealth creation opportunities, or financial advice we try to bring these opportunities to our clients proactively i.e. without being asked and without charging a fee for the proposals.
Flexible Payment Options
In 90% of cases we provide our compliance solutions on a fixed fee basis, that is, we agree our fees with our clients in advance so that they always know what their costs will be. This way there are no nasty surprises. We calculate our clients’ fixed fees by taking into account a number of factors such as the size of their businesses, the quality of their records, the number of solutions required, and any special expertise that may be needed.
Where the type of service required cannot be provided on a fixed fee basis (for example tax enquiry work or data recovery work), we inform our clients in advance that we cannot quote a fixed fee and that we will need to work with them on an hourly basis.
