20% off book keeping services for your first 6 months with us

To tempt you to try our book keeping services, we are currently offering you 20% off for your first 6 months with us. That makes us the cheapest provider of qualified, professional book keeping services that we can find. Our service is fully comprehensive and flexible to your needs.

Tax return client referral scheme

If you recommend us to a friend, colleague or family member and the recommendation results in a new client to the practice, we will give you £25 off your next accountancy bill. This discount works for up to 5 clients a year or until your own bill is reduced to Nil, whichever comes first. A great reason to use Gamages Accountancy.

Fees & Packages

To keep things clear and simple for our clients, we offer several popular services as packages. We can cover the year end/compliance work of Sole traders, Partnerships and Limited companies. Please click on the links below to download our fee sheet:

Sole traders

Payroll

Limited Companies

Start ups

We also offer very competitively priced book keeping/VAT and Payroll services, which compliment our year end services. Our book keeping services are charged out at £20 per hour, this is SIGNIFICANTLY less (75% less in many cases) than book keeping charges you would incur at more traditional Accountancy practices and our monthly payrolls start at just £20 per month. We can offer a comprehensive package of year end accounting, monthly or quarterly book keeping and payroll - just contact us for more information.

The above services are not exhaustive, the packages are designed to simplify our charges and illustrate what we can offer to small businesses. If you would like more or less of our services, please feel free to contact us and we can give you a very competitive quote on a tailored package – we know we’re competitive because we price check our fees.

 

Company formations

If you are self employed or operate as a partnership, there may become a point when it would be beneficial for you to incorporate your business into a Limited Company, particularly if you wish to leave money in your business to help it grow from year to year or if you are a higher rate tax payer.

This decision should not be taken lightly – there are additional costs and responsibilities associated with the compliance aspect of running a Limited Company (Filing of accounts with Companies House, Corporation tax, Directors tax returns, keeping company minutes and so on). Should it become beneficial for you to Incorporate, we can not only set up the company for you, but we can deal with all the financial obligations that you will have under the Companies Acts.

Alternatively you may wish to set up as a Limited Company from the beginning of a Business venture. You may have a reasonable feel for the projected income and profit levels of your new business and decide that an incorporated company gives a more professional impression to prospective clients, this approach will also save you having to re-brand your company stationery when you move from unincorporated to incorporated.          

Contact us for an informal discussion. We are happy to look at your last years accounts and let you know what the benefits (if any) would be for you.

Accounts

We offer a highly professional, confidential service for your business. Whether its monthly or quarterly management accounts to help you to manage your business, or statutory accounts for your limited company, we can help you:

Sole trader / partnership Accounts

Ordinarily, our year end accounts service for sole traders/self employed people or partnerships is included in a package, however we are happy to produce accounts for you whenever you ask us to, for whatever reason. We can produce a set of accounts for you that will be useful when approaching banks for financing, or as part of a mortgage application etc. Our year end accounts will also show you how your business has performed for the year.

Unaudited Statutory Accounts

If your Limited company turnover is less than £5.6m, we can produce both full and abbreviated unaudited statutory accounts for you to ensure you comply with current legislation.

Our typical Ltd Company year end package for a ‘One Man Ltd company’ costs just £750, which you can pay at year end or monthly to help you budget.

Contact us, so we can learn more about your requirements and give you a very competitive quote.

Management Accounts

Management Accounts contain current and relevant financial information to enable business owners and managers.

Rather than focusing retrospectively on a whole year (as Statutory/Compliance accounting does), Management Accounts look at current month or quarter performance and comparative information so that managers can begin to understand trends, act on areas of concern, understand the cost base and so on.  These services are of particular importance to growing companies, where owners wish to stay on top of the finances and use financial information to aid in strategic decision making.

We can produce Management accounts for you on a monthly or quarterly basis. We can tailor the package to your business and your individual needs. You may wish to use our basic management accounts service in conjunction with our book keeping services which makes them even more affordable. We have many years of experience in compiling Management accounts for Board and Senior Management review. We are happy to carry out consultancy based work in this area or we can produce detailed management accounts for you as and when required. Contact us for a competitive quote.

 

Taxation

Lets face facts….Tax is taxing! Here at Gamages Accountancy we offer a range of very competitively priced taxation services, tailored to individuals and small businesses and we aim to take the burden of taxation away from you.

Self Assessment

We use fully approved HMRC software and will provide you with a highly professional, confidential service which includes:

  •          producing accounts from your records
  •          completing your tax return (additional sources of income included, not just monies from employment).
  •          calculating your final tax liability
  •          filing your return on line 
  •          liaising with you on the amounts to be paid and when they are due

VAT

Could your business be saving money by being VAT registered?

You may not currently be VAT registered and wonder if you should be. Perhaps you wonder if you could save yourself money if you were VAT registered even though you don’t need to be. It doesn’t make financial sense for everyone to be VAT registered (don’t forget, you will have to charge your customers an extra 17.5%), but it may make sense for you. We will review your businesses financial position and after considering all the facts advise you whether or not you should (or have to) register for VAT. We can also advise you on which VAT scheme is best for you.

Once we have reviewed your position, if required, we can deal with VAT registration for you and be your agent for VAT matters on an ongoing basis. It will suit many small companies to use our VAT and Book keeping services together.

Corporation Tax

If you are incorporated, we can deal with your Corporation Tax affairs as part of the Limited company accounts package that we offer.

 

Payroll Services

Gamages Accountancy can offer your business a complete payroll package at a very competitive rate. Our package takes away the burden of trying to deal with payroll administration and legislation and means you can concentrate on running your business and having some well earnt time to yourself.

We use Inland Revenue approved Software and will provide you with a highly professional service which includes Data entry, production of payslips, management reports,  P45/P46s and the submission of HMRC year end documents as required.

If you couple this service with our book keeping services, you may wish us to manage your business bank account online for you, in which case we can also transfer your employees salaries to their bank accounts.

From as little as £20 per month we will effectively be working as your payroll clerk and are happy to handle any queries you or HMRC have.

Contact us to informally discuss your requirements and we will be happy to provide you with a quotation.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Book Keeping Services

A complete service for small businesses

Many small businesses may only need a half day or a day of Book keeping done each month or quarter so it simply isn’t financially viable or necessary to employ a qualified book keeper – even on a part time basis. Here at Gamages Accountancy, we offer a very affordable way for you to make sure you keep on top of your book keeping with monthly services starting from just £50. We charge out based at book keeper rates (not junior accountant rates) making us extremely competitive.

Have any of these thoughts crossed your mind recently?

  • My business is expanding so quickly, I’m piling the paperwork up and don’t seem to find the time to deal with it
  • I am worried I’m storing up a big headache for year end, and it’s bound to cost me more in accountancy fees
  • I am new to running a business and I’m not sure that my record keeping is adequate
  • My wife/partner/family member has been doing my books until now, but they don’t want to do them anymore or we feel we need someone with some formal training to take over
  • I am worried I don’t have adequate financial controls in place, I don’t reconcile my accounts at the moment and so I wouldn’t find any errors or omissions
  • I am sick of working into the night to stay on top of my paperwork – I want some of my private life back
  • I need to spend what spare time I have at work on business development to increase business revenue, not on tackling the ever growing pile of paperwork

We specialise in book keeping. Let us help by taking your paperwork headache away. We will get your records in order, computerise them, collect your paperwork each week/month/quarter and update your records accurately, confidentially and efficiently -  we will then return your paperwork, with your financial reports and any relevant advice for the period.

We also offer a book keeping software ‘purchase and install service’ which is extremely competitive – this means we can come and work onsite for you if you wish and that you have instant access to your computerised financial records at any time.  

Our standard book keeping service includes:

Standard book keeping service

Maintenance of your Sales ledger:

Preparation and processing of sales invoices

Posting and allocation of sales receipts to customers accounts  

 

Maintenance of your Purchase ledger:

Processing, coding and posting of supplier invoices

Posting and allocation of supplier direct debit payments 

Production of cheques to pay suppliers in accordance with credit terms

Posting and allocation of supplier cheques to supplier accounts

 

Analysing and posting of petty cash payments

Payroll journal entries and control (you may also wish to use our payroll services)

Depreciation provisions

Interest and charges provisions

Accruals and prepayments provisions

Bank Reconciliations

Where appropriate financial controls do not exist within the company we will highlight this to you, suggesting ways in which the issues can be resolved. If you reach the VAT registration threshold, we will advise you of this and we can deal with your VAT compliance issues without issue

Welcome to Gamages Accountancy

We are a modern company and pride ourselves on our fresh approach – no jargon, no fuss, personable, professional, confidential and capable. We will work hard to deliver to you.

Gamages Accountancy is based in northern Oxfordshire, however we offer a national accountancy service at no extra cost to you. We specialise in accountancy and book keeping services for individuals, sole traders, partnerships and limited companies.

Not only do we provide very competitively priced year end services, but very often we will fill a gap for Companies that cannot financially justify having a book keeper or accountancy employee of their own. We can work flexibly for you on a weekly, monthly, quarterly or annual basis depending on your needs.

We believe that smaller companies can really benefit from the high calibre of staff that you would normally associate with blue chip organisations. When you use Gamages Accountancy, you aren’t simply hiring a ‘bean counter’ for a few hours periodically, you are getting the undivided attention of a high calibre finance professional who will aim to deliver beyond your expectations.

We price ourselves competitively by regularly researching the market place and making sure our overheads are kept low. We believe in transparent and up front pricing too – that’s why (in almost all cases) we can quote you upfront for any work you would like us to do.  We do this because we believe that our customers have a right to know what they will be paying when they start using us. Many practices still operate an ‘hourly charge out rate’ system, which inevitably leaves the customer paying higher costs when hours worked are rounded up and heels are dragged. We operate in a way that we think is fairer for you, to reflect what we would expect as a customer outside of the industry.

We always have offers running to encourage new clients to join us. We want a good deal when we shop around, just like you do.
