Money in the bank for our clients
Steve has identified savings of over £16,000 a year for an employee who is about to take on a new role in one of our major clients. This funds his new car, one for his wife, and pays our fees! As part of the same project, Steve used our “remuneration planner” software to research over 7,000 different options for funds extraction, and identified a strategy which, if implemented, will save the company over £90,000 a year! Steve and Andy have done some business health checks, and one of Steve’s clients has grown profits by 1,100% as a result. There’s now cash in the bank for the first time in many years. A great result for Duncan after all his hard work!
We’re great with tax!
We have had confirmation from HMRC that they are dropping their claim for tax on undeclared income against one of our clients. They have also agreed to our appeal against penalties levied, leaving the client with absolutely nothing to pay (including our fees which are paid by our insurers!) Numbers have managed to reduce one client’s £35,000 tax bill by £5,000, working with her solicitor to clear up an issue that had been running for 4 years! Many corrections were needed due to HMRC errors last week, which had led to incorrect demands being received by several clients. Numbers have been working hard to put our clients minds at rest after receiving these worrying letters!
A Government give-away (with conditions)
Introduction One of the goods things to come out of recent budgets is the new holiday for Employer National Insurance Contributions (“NIC”). The Employment Allowance allows small and medium enterprises (“SME”) to deduct up to £2,000 from their employer NIC payments. The details The holiday is worth up to £2,000 per annum. This starts on April 6th 2014, and must be claimed by qualifying employers. HMRC are expecting employers to take the deduction as early as possible, so many will see the benefit on 19 May 2014 (when the first payment is NOT made. You can only claim it once, even if you run more than one PAYE scheme. If you are part of a group, only one company can claim the allowance. Who cannot claim? The main exclusions are companies and organisations that provide “public sector” services. These include: NHS services General Practitioner services the managing of housing stock…
Money Saving, Business Building, and Tax!
Our meeting room is now complete! We have been ‘mirroring’ presentations on Money Saving, and Business Building to clients using our new wall screen. We used this for the first time last week to present these new range of services. A tax review has been booked as a result! Using this new technology, we have conducted some internal software training with our team so that we can enhance our customer service levels. We are excited to be running a tax presentation for a Barristers’ Chamber in the very near future.
Saving more money for our clients
Last week Emily cleared an £800 penalty, issued by HMRC in error for one of our clients. See their testimonial on our ‘Who Likes Us’ page. We saved nearly £600 on a 1st VAT return for a client that was taken on last summer. As such, we have paid for ourselves! If you would like to know whether the FRS can save you VAT, contact us for a free review. Tax refunds have been received for 4 clients totalling nearly £2,000. Again, if you want to know if we can do the same for you, get in touch! We helped a client plan the sale of a property, and the transfer of some land to avoid unnecessarily paying £3,600 in capital gains tax. Managed a client through the process of paying the tax on the sale of a commercial property, and distribution of the gains to their 8 shareholders in…
