Limited Company accountants that Crunch your tax, not your time.

Whether you're a small business or a growing enterprise, there's no legal obligation for a Limited company to have an accountant. However, as a limited company director, your legal responsibilities and tax obligations make having an accountant a smart choice. A good accountant can help you stay on top of your finances, submit tax returns, and free up your time to focus on growing your business. At Crunch, we make it easy with our expert team, dedicated to simplifying tax filings and saving you time.

No, as a Crunch Limited company accounting client, you don’t have to worry about any of it! We take care of all the complex registrations and key filings for you. From VAT to PAYE, RTI to Self Assessments, we can handle the whole process so you don’t have to face the daunting world of tax yourself. Without Crunch, you’d be left navigating a sea of paperwork, tight deadlines, and the risk of missing something important. But with us, you’re in safe hands.

Missing your Limited company filing deadline can lead to penalties, interest charges, and potentially a late filing notice. HMRC and Companies House are strict with deadlines, and failing to file on time can affect your business reputation. With Crunch, you’ll never miss a deadline, as we handle everything for you, keeping track of your filings and ensuring timely submissions.

Absolutely! Our expert Limited company accountants can help you with tax planning strategies to ensure you're taking advantage of any allowances, deductions, and tax reliefs available to your business. We take a proactive approach to help you reduce your tax liabilities and ensure your business is tax-efficient.

You’ll also be able to access all of your limited company records, such as your expense receipts, sales invoices - whether paid or unpaid - and records of your previous tax filings.

‍You must keep records for six years from the end of the last company financial year they relate to, or longer, if:

• they show a transaction that covers more than one of the company’s accounting periods
• the company has bought something that it expects to last more than six years, like equipment or machinery
• you submitted your Company Tax Return late
• HMRC has started a compliance check into your Company Tax Return.

There are complex rules surrounding the type of company which must have an audit. You can find out more if you check HMRC’s website. In general terms, if your company’s turnover is below £10.2 million, and its assets are below £5.1 million, you do not need to have an audit. However, some companies with turnover and assets below these amounts elect to have an audit to comply with financial covenants.
