Accountant advice? Limited freelance company

[Duffelcoat]

I have a guy who offered £1000, that was a lot as I heard that some did it for £150...
but i guess the lowest ive actually seen mentioning limited companies is £500, have one in talks who offered £1000, and trying to bargain a deal with him as he offered me so much advice from the start of my company..

he seems very good..
I'll keep crunch on as another option .. thx chaps!! and have a great week!!

No one will do a Limited company for £150, not unless they are insane!

Remember as Limited company you need to do:

The Accounts
The Corporation Tax Return (With Accounts in full HMRC ixbrl format) CT600
The Companies House Accounts (Abbrieviated probably)
Your Self Assessment SA100
PAYE - As a director you are an employee - presumably you want to pay yourself a salary as well as dividends

Probably the company paperwork too, minutes for dividends etc

That is ignoring VAT etc etc

£500 is probably okay for a Limited company you run yourself and then give reasonable records to the accountant at the year end and sort your own self assessment, unless you have no other income and the accountant might do it as well

If you pay a bit more you get a better accountant that will probably make sure that the tax you pay is reduced to an absolute minimum, and in effect they don't cost you anything, in fact they can make you money
