We offer a complete range of cost-effective business support solutions for any type and size of business, from start-ups to established companies.

By working with you, we can help you to find the systems and services that suit you best, to bring maximum benefit to your business. Our support services include:

Accounting Services

• Bookkeeping: we can maintain sales ledgers, purchase ledgers, payments and receipts made from and into the company bank account, and keep correct VAT records, in preparation for production of annual accounts.

• SAGE software: we can install and maintain Sage software, including Accounts and Payroll,

Company Secretarial Services

During recent years the amount of work required to keep all your statutory records and returns up to date has increased particularly with more companies paying dividends and reviewing their corporate and share structures.

At the same time, H M Revenue and Customs are taking a much keener interest to ensure that paperwork relating to payment of dividends, changes in shares and other transaction relating to shareholder/owners are exactly in order.

Over the last year Clay Shaw Thomas have invested in new computer software to ensure that, as far as possible, all matters are attended to in a timely fashion. The new software also enables us to provide an e-filing service with Companies House thus reducing the Company’s filing fee as well as having the ability to file other documents quickly.

Payroll

Whether you are a sole trader with one or two employees, or a large company with many staff, we can provide fast, efficient, cost-effective and customised payroll management. Our payroll service includes:

• on line filing
• Pay As You Earn, national insurance and all statutory requirements
• year-end returns, including P14, P60 and P35
• P11Ds.

VAT Compliance

The complexity of Value Added Tax means that many businesses unintentionally overpay or underpay VAT. Dealing with VAT can also take up business resources that you could use more profitably elsewhere.

We can advise on the VAT implications of your business transactions to ensure that your business remains compliant. Our services also include registration and preparation of VAT returns.
