Do I have to get my Limited Company Accounts Audited?
Do I have to get my Limited Company Accounts Audited?
I am going to start a UK Private Limited Company for a little web venture I have. We will make (much, much) less than 1m so would be classed as "small". The main cost seems to be in accounting as we would be able to do our own accounts, but I believe we would have to get them audited at the end of the year which would cost about £1000. If we are only a small company making a few thousand a year, so we still have to get provide audited accounts, just because we are a LTD? Thanks!

Answer 1 :
you most certainly will have to get them aduited, a small company can still fiddle the tax man.
Answer 2 :
No, beacuse your turnover is less than £6.5m and your balance sheet would be less than £3.26m you qualify as a small company for audit exemption purposes. You can also file abbreviated accounts which means you don't have to have so much detailed infornmation which is open to the public (and your competition if you have any) since company accounts are published by companies house. You will need - year end accounts compiling, a company tax return completed, a company return to companies house, and the shareholders will need to include the income they recieve on their personal tax returns. My advice would be don't try to do it all yourself as you may actually lose money iff you don't take advantage of the tax savings you may be able to make. However you may be best not to use an Accountant as they charge the earth, use a book-keeper who is clued up on taxation (like me for example). I charge £120 for year end accounts, £40 for company tax returns, £40 for personal tax returns http://www.businesslink.gov.uk/static/html/detail-2387.html http://www.businesslink.gov.uk/static/html/layer-565.html
Answer 3 :
No, an accountant will produce a set of accounts for you, they do not need auditing, they can be restricted to directors declarations. It will probably cost nearer 4-500 depending how much information you give the accountant to work from.

Answer 1 :
Ledger is another word for 'book'.... If the course is any good, they will explain where and why Credits & Debits are recorded. Understanding Finance is the first step to understanding why the poor will always be poor and why you will always be better off. As for your future - well the closer you are to the Money the more you can earn for yourself - and once you start to understand Money you can arrange your own finances to allow you to spend your life in comfort. I would recommend you go for it.

Answer 1 :
A factor is a business that buys accounts recievable at less than face. The factor then deals with collections and bad debts.
Answer 2 :
a factor agreement is like a credit agreement whats happens is a company will sell products to a second company. the company buying the goods might want longer than normal crdit terms. so the selling companys goes to a FACTORING HOUSE the will pay the selling company for the goods that the other company has bought minus a commision charge. them the company that bought the goods will pay the FACTORING HOUSE. that way every one is happing A sells to B and C pays A less 10% then B pays C a=seller b=buyer c=factoring house
Answer 3 :
Factoring is simply a tool that a company can use to get in the money for the things it sells straight away. Supposing a company sold goods or services for a hundred pounds. It would then raise an invoice for a hundred pounds. This £100 would then be entered on to the company's Sales Ledger as a sale. Lets suppose though that the Customer took 3 months to pay the bill helping themselves to 90 days free credit as it were. Rather than wait 90 days for its money, the company simply 'sells' it's invoices to a factoring company for typically 90% of their value. In this case £90.00 The factoring company now owns the debt and chases the original customer for the £100 and when it gets it, makes a £10 profit over and above the £90 it paid for the £100 invoice. Where the company got its £90 straight away that improved the cash flow of the company but it effectively traded away 10% of its turnover in exchange for immediate cash flow. A smart company therefore (particularly where multi million pound turnover and high Debt Lag due to lazy payers) will incorporate10% of the overall price of their goods or services to allow for factoring in the first place. However there is a fine line to be drawn here. If it costs less than 10% of its turnover to chase its own debt (with a good credit control department for example) then factoring is not a viable alternative unless you can find one who will purchase your invoices for a percentage of invoice value less than that it would cost you to do it yourself. Hope you found this helpful.
Answer 4 :
"to factor" means to enter into a factoring agreement. Factoring is generally done for cashflow purposes. A company will take it debtors (people who owe them money) and give their names and addresses to a factoring company. The factoring company will then advance them money (normally discounted i.e the factor will only advance 80% of the total debtors) on the strength of the debtor list for a fee (typically 10% of the total amount owed but he customers). This means the factor takes over the credit control function for the company and chases it's debts for it. Factoring can be with or without recourse, with recourse meaning that if any debts are not collected the factor can seek the funds from the company and the company has to take the hit for the bad debt. With recourse factoring is typically cheaper than without recourse factoring for obvious reasons.

Answer 1 :
AAT level 2 or the foundation stage is the starting point, however before you go with ICS why not consider speaking to your local college. The reason for this is AAT foundation is a level 2 qualification, if you do not have any level 2 quals, you may find that the government will fund the course, most colleges run AAT classes on a part time basis (evening classes) to fit in with students jobs. Once you have achieved the foundation certificate, start looking for work as an accounts assistant/purchase/sales ledger clerk. Hopefully if you secure a position the employer normally funds AAT training. The intermediate level is the equivalent to 2 A levels and the final Technician stage is what you want to be aiming for. The whole 3 levels are achievable in 2 years which is what I did, then you can become a full member of the AAT and are entitled to use the designatory letters MAAT after your name. From here you could go onto further study with CIPFA, CIMA or ACCA, they will all grant you generous exemptions from the first stage and in as little as 2 years further study you could qualify as a chartered/certified accountant. If you decide to stay at AAT qualified level you could still secure a senior accounts position and (depending on where you live) could earn anything between 20-30K per year! Hope that helps and good luck with your studies!
