Still chasing receipts as the filing deadline approaches?
For most owner-managed businesses in New Milton, year-end accounts feel like a scramble. Records are incomplete, the accountant is hard to reach, and the tax bill arrives as a surprise rather than a known quantity. None of that is inevitable. It is, though, what tends to happen when accounts are left too late with too little structure around them.
- Filing deadline looming with records still incomplete and disorganised
- Corporation tax bill arrives as a surprise with no time to plan
- Accounts filed but never explained — the figures mean nothing to you

With the right process in place, year-end accounts become routine rather than stressful. Your records are kept current, deadlines are managed in advance, and you understand what the numbers mean for your business.
- Records gathered methodically well ahead of the filing deadline
- Tax liability calculated early so you can plan cash flow accordingly
- Accounts walked through in plain English so the figures make sense to you
- Fixed fee agreed upfront — the cost is known before work begins

Everything your year-end accounts require
Annual accounts preparation covers the statutory filing obligations and the practical insight that helps you understand where your business actually stands.
Statutory Accounts Prepared and Filed
Your year-end accounts are prepared to the required standard and filed with Companies House and HMRC within the statutory deadlines. For limited companies this includes your full statutory accounts; for sole traders and partnerships, accounts are prepared to support your Self Assessment return. Nothing is missed, and nothing is left to chance.
Included as standardCorporation Tax Return Handled
Your CT600 is prepared and submitted to HMRC alongside your statutory accounts. Your corporation tax liability is calculated and communicated clearly, with sufficient time for you to arrange payment before the due date. If there are allowable deductions or reliefs worth claiming, they are identified and applied.
Included as standardPlain-English Review of Your Figures
Once the accounts are finalised, the numbers are explained to you in straightforward terms — what your profit position means, how your tax liability was arrived at, and what, if anything, is worth addressing before the next year-end. You will not receive a signed set of accounts and nothing else.

What makes this worth your while
There are plenty of accountants who will file your accounts. Fewer who will explain what they mean and fewer still who have been doing this for over two decades.
Twenty years of year-end experience
Supreme Consulting has been preparing annual accounts for small businesses and contractors since 2005. Over that time, the firm has worked through enough year-ends to know what goes wrong and when. The process is managed to avoid the common problems, not just to clear the filing deadline.
Price agreed before work starts
The fee for your annual accounts is fixed and confirmed before anything is prepared. There are no hourly rates accumulating quietly in the background and no additions that appear on the invoice after the fact. You know the cost before you commit.
Accounts that tell you something useful
The statutory filing obligation is the floor, not the ceiling. Once your accounts are prepared, the figures are reviewed with you in plain English — what the profit position means, whether your director salary and dividend structure is still sensible, and what to think about before next year-end. Which is, frankly, the way it should be.
Up and running in four steps
The process is straightforward and most of the effort sits with us. What you need to do is minimal — and clearly explained at each stage.
A brief discovery call
A short, no-obligation conversation to understand your business, your current setup, and what your year-end accounts actually require. You will leave the call knowing exactly what is needed and what it will cost.
A clear, fixed-fee proposal
You receive a written proposal setting out the scope, the fee, and the timelines. No vague estimates. If the scope is straightforward, the proposal is usually with you within one working day.
We gather and prepare
We request the records we need and handle the preparation. If your bookkeeping needs tidying before accounts can be prepared, that is flagged and costed separately so there are no surprises. You do not need to wrestle with accounting software to get us what we need.
Filed, explained, done
Your accounts are filed with Companies House and HMRC. The figures are walked through with you in plain English. Your tax liability is confirmed and planned for. From that point forward, your year-end is a known event on the calendar rather than a looming uncertainty.

A few things people usually ask
Do you prepare accounts for both limited companies and sole traders in New Milton?
Yes. The firm prepares statutory accounts for owner-managed limited companies, sole trader accounts to support Self Assessment returns, and partnership accounts for those trading in partnership. The scope and fee differ depending on the entity type and the complexity of your affairs — both are confirmed in writing before any work begins.
What does annual accounts preparation cost, and what is included?
Pricing is fixed and agreed upfront based on your entity type and the complexity of your records. For a limited company, the fee typically covers preparation of statutory year-end accounts, the corporation tax return (CT600), and the confirmation statement. Bookkeeping catch-up, payroll, and VAT are priced separately if required. Indicative fees are discussed on the initial call — there is no hourly rate and no ambiguity about what is included.
My records are a bit of a mess. Can you still help?
This is common. If records need tidying or reconciling before accounts can be prepared, a catch-up bookkeeping fee is quoted separately and clearly. Nothing proceeds without you knowing the cost first. The important thing is not to leave it further — the messier the records become, the more time-consuming the catch-up.
Is there a long-term contract if I switch to Supreme Consulting?
There is no long-term contract. Annual accounts services are engaged on a per-year basis with a fixed scope. If you decide the arrangement is not working for you, you leave with your accounts filed, your records in order, and nothing further owed. The aim is to be worth retaining, not to make leaving difficult.
Can you take over from my existing accountant mid-year?
Yes. A mid-year switch is straightforward in most cases. The firm contacts your previous accountant to obtain the professional clearance and any records or working papers needed. You do not need to manage that process yourself. If the year-end is approaching, it is worth moving sooner rather than later, but there is rarely a point at which it becomes too late to switch.
Will you tell me my tax bill in advance, or does it arrive as a surprise?
The tax liability is calculated and communicated to you as part of the accounts preparation process, well before HMRC’s payment deadline. For limited companies, corporation tax is due nine months and one day after the year-end — you will know the figure with sufficient time to plan. If there are straightforward ways to reduce the liability within the rules, those are raised at the same time.
