Annual Accounts and Financial Reports for Luton Limited Companies and Businesses

At Taxwise Accountancy, we provide expert support with preparing year end accounts, also known as annual accounts, financial statements, or financial reports, for limited companies and businesses in Luton. These reports are a legal requirement and are essential for understanding your business’s financial health.

Whether you're a startup, a small business or an established limited company in Luton, our accountants can prepare your accounts accurately and on time to meet both HMRC and Companies House requirements.

Why Do Luton Businesses Need to Prepare Year End Accounts?

All limited companies in the UK are legally required to prepare year end accounts at the end of each financial year. These accounts must be submitted to:

  • Companies House (to meet filing obligations)
  • HMRC (as part of the corporation tax return)

Year end accounts are important because they:

  • Provide a snapshot of your company’s financial position
  • Help directors, shareholders and lenders make informed decisions
  • Ensure compliance with UK tax law
  • Influence your corporation tax bill
  • Support mortgage or loan applications

Failing to prepare and submit your annual accounts on time can result in penalties from Companies House and HMRC.

What Do You Need to Provide for Annual Accounts Preparation?

  • Information and Records Needed

    To prepare year end accounts for your Luton business, you’ll need to provide the following:

    • Business bank statements covering the financial year
    • Sales invoices and income records
    • Purchase invoices and expense receipts
    • Payroll records (if applicable)
    • Stock valuation (if applicable)
    • Loan or finance agreements
    • VAT returns (if VAT registered)
    • Details of any fixed assets and depreciation

    Good record-keeping throughout the year will make this process quicker and easier.
