OUR CHARGES

A revised scale of charges has been introduced to encourage clients to have their books collected much earlier in the year.  This does not necessarily mean that your accounts or tax return will be completed earlier but what it does mean is that I am able to spread the work load over the year more evenly instead of having a last minute rush and having to work very long hours in the months of December and January. It also helps to keep our fees down.  The higher fees from November onwards reflects the cost of extra help to complete the work on time.  They will only be charged if I am not able to complete the work without paying temporary staff for assistance.

£5 per hour discount is deducted for settlement upon receipt of invoice. The discount may not be deducted if payment is not made within 24 hours of receipt of the invoice.

Payment is required by bank transfer, cash or cheque.  Cheque payments are subject to an admin charge of £5 per £100.

You can if you wish pay an agreed fee by monthly banker's standing order. Ask for details.

I also undertake work on a fixed fee for one year basis. This means that you know what you will pay before work commences dependent upon when the job comes in irrespective of the time spent on the job.  The fees quoted assume that you are writing up your books using Excel.
