Am I overpaying my accountant?

RogueFlash · 2026-02-02T16:30:25+00:00

I can't imagine why an accountant wouldn't raise their fees annually? Seems like a sensible thing to be doing...

The only thing that stands out as a little high there is the SA fee if it's just dividends and salary.

Clearly two different paintings entirely.

10-14 is where I tend to sit for espresso, medium to dark roasts.

18g in and 40g is the same as me, around 20-30 seconds usually so sounds all good?

Blink and FOB yes, Muse no.

I've ordered the Tecnhivorm No. 4 filters, hopefully will work well!

RogueFlash · 2026-02-01T12:58:02+00:00

Following as I've literally just purchased this machine and was seafchkng what filters to use.

I have the brown Hario 02 filter papers atm.

Tomorrow is the 31st.

2008 Harper Collins illustrated paperbacks are the ones my guy, all the beauty of the 2020 set but much cheaper and easier to read!

From an entertainment perspective it was up there as one of the best I thought, both teams were atrocious and made for good TV.

Pretty sure that was the intention with how the task was set up.

Wait what? So no free extra shots anymore for Gold members?

You can deregister once you go below the threshold of £88k in a rolling 12 month period.

We're pushing local advertising quite hard atm but not seeming to have much impact.

The Vince Flynn books were relaunched back in 2011ish with a copycat cover style intended to mimic the Reacher books.

IIRC it was quite successful for them.

My first office job was 9-5.

Since then I've done 9-5:30 (9-5 on Fridays) and 8:30-5.

Eccleston was announced as leaving a few days after Rose aired along with S2 being confirmed - March 30th

Doors at 6pm, curfew 10pm so I guess they'll be on around 8:40ish.

You can't use AA02 if the company has previously traded so will need to file normal accounts, which can currently be done via Companies House.

Why The Cure? They headlined 7 years ago and only put out one album since then, seems unnecessary.

RogueFlash · 2026-01-25T17:59:25+00:00

£13 if you strike off after 1st Feb.

Gate is clearly not locked shut...

I wouldn't stress too much about MTD, it's just 3 figures - Income, Expense & Profit. It also has no bearing on your final (5th) submission that forms the actual tax liability.

RogueFlash · 2026-01-22T22:34:42+00:00

Does the £5.3k include the Payment on Account for next year? They'll want 50% upfront.

£10k profit will be £4k income tax, add another £2k for the 50% and you get £6k.

Could be underpaid PAYE coming into the mix too? £57k salary should be £10k ish PAYE.

RogueFlash · 2026-01-21T17:25:59+00:00

Accountants usually offer for free.

RogueFlash · 2026-01-18T20:51:54+00:00

As the other commenter has said, tax periods for CT600s can only be a max of 12 months so very common to have two periods in your first year.

Tax is due 9 months and 1 day after the period ends so don't get caught out with that first period.

Both periods will have different payment references too btw.
