You don\u2019t have to decide now, why not have a one off set up meeting to include all the above and then decide your next step.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>We give you the tools so you can decide &#8211;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Once set up, you can continue to have 1 or more QuickBooks tuition sessions with us, showing you how to record and correctly categorise your expenses (as per the necessary accounting standards, set out in legislation).<\/p>\n<p>Or, you can let us do the ongoing categorisations, matching and bank reconciliations ready for submission directly by us.<\/p>\n<p>We thrive on giving you the tools and knowledge you need. Some accountants won\u2019t tell you, but it\u2019s important to us that you know: your accounting costs could increase at year end, if expenses have not been correctly recorded and are under the incorrect categorisation within the software.\u00a0 This is due to it being more time consuming for your accountant to correct at year end or at that critical 5th MTD submission time.<\/p>\n<p>Before MTD you may have been using software and had no \u2018complaints\u2019 from your accountant however what can be usual it that we as accountants extract what we can and then do our own workings and submissions from our own re-organised software. However MTD now means that submissions may be being done directly through your own software so it\u2019s now a different story entirely.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>A further insight<\/em> &#8211;\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>For professionals to check and correct transactions rather than just listing and categorising themselves, as was probably the case, prior to MTD, will inevitably take longer. Think of your own profession, I\u2019m sure you will agree, it can often take longer to check someone else\u2019s work, imagine if they also have no formal training in what they are doing also. The other thing to remember is, your accountant will not check every transaction, in fact quite the opposite, they are often resistant to check as they are not responsible if you have done your own book-keeping work and not paid for that service. Accountants will often \u2018have a quick check\u2019 looking for larger, obvious errors, but is that what you want? Imagine if you are a plumber, checking a heating system someone else has installed and asked you check, for instance! And, if questioned by HMRC, will you feel disgruntled by this, thinking \u2018well my accountant did the final figures\u2019. Unfortunately that\u2019s not how this works.<\/p>\n<p>With our 1 hour set up sessions and our low monthly fee MTD packages, we do all this for you. Errors and miss categorisation can all be all avoided as much as possible to give you peace of mind and ensure that the 5th submission to HMRC is just your accountant entering the relevant allowances and depreciation etc as normal.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Speak to Nicky Wilcox if you would like to discuss any of this further.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Follow us on Facebook<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Why don&#8217;t you follow our Facebook page to see our updates on what&#8217;s happening, when and how we can help. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/willowsaccountancy\/\">https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/willowsaccountancy\/<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/willowsaccountancy\/\">facebook<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0 Digital Set-Up Service (One-Off Fee) &#8211; Great for sole traders being forced into Making Tax Digital Get your business set up digitally with a simple, hassle-free 1 hour service.
