Ongoing management advice and information :

It is true to say that the world of business is sometimes a hard and unfriendly place and we are fully aware that if the stresses become too great, the advantages of running a business can be defeated. We know that sometimes all that is needed is a second opinion, a sounding board or someone to provide reassurance that everything's alright.

We are always willing to discuss clients problems and ideas. To bring in our ideas and work together as part of the clients team to provide realistic solutions and plans. We will back our solutions and plans with financial reports and analysis that are fully explained and understood.

Periodic reporting :

Naturally we can prepare annual and other periodic accounting statements as required for business purposes. Everything from annual accounts as a basis for tax compliance or your banks scrutiny to interim management statements.

Business projections

Often your business may require business projections to enable it to comply with bank lending requirements or to assess the viability of a new venture. Graham & Company can assist you to prepare anything from a business plan to feasibility analysis.

Charities :

Graham & Company have specialised in reporting and accounting for registered charities for several years. We have expertise and experience in the special needs of charities and are able to offer a level of service commensurate with the tight reporting deadlines these impose.

Tax Compliance :

The Acts, regulations, concessions and practices which make up UK tax law are legion. They place a very great burden on the taxpayer to comply. At Graham & Company we realise a lot of compliance is simply filling in forms, Tax returns, P11D's, etc.

We can help by taking care of all these in an efficient service specifically designed to ensure that the forms are submitted well ahead of HMRC deadlines to avoid potential penalties.

We also believe that no client should pay a tax (or national insurance) demand unless it has been verified. One of our main aims is to relieve the client completely of the worry and insecurity of dealing with the Inland Revenue.

Company Secretarial :

Company law requires that the statutory affairs of all client companies are maintained up to date, and the Registrar of Companies enforces those requirements. This is another "compliance" area, which is in fact two-fold.

The maintenance of the statutory books, registers of members, etc. and minute books; and required filing of annual returns, accounts and other notifications. We ensure that our clients compliance is always up to the mark.

Computerised Accounting Systems :

Advances in the availability of computerised systems means that many businesses rely on them for everyday accounting. As an accredited Sage systems advisor we can help you get the best from the systems you invest so much time and energy into.

We can review your use of the current system, and recommend improvements or upgrades which will benefit you - and as an accredited advisor we can offer a discount on the cost of upgrades.

Start ups :

The term start-up can be applied equally to a first foray into business and a new venture or project for an established client. Both areas are dependant on planning. A client new to business needs help and guidance through the maze of registrations and notifications. From HMRC and DSS, to VAT, and back.

An existing client needs the same degree of guidance if he is venturing into an unknown area. Graham & Company can supply both in full measure.

Clerical services :

To assist clients that may not have the resources or time to comply with the many accounting and related records their business needs to complete, we can offer our own clerical assistance services.

From book-keeping, including VAT return preparation to weekly or monthly payroll preparation and related pension compliance, we can provide the necessary backup for your business.
