"The jump from 19% to 25% is the biggest tax hike in decades. Passive filing is now expensive."
Strategic Tax Management
Business Tax isn't just about filing the CT600. It's about understanding how your profit level triggers different tax bands and using statutory reliefs to stay efficient.
The Marginal Rate Trap (26.5%)
If your profits fall between £50k and £250k, you don't pay 25%. You pay a marginal rate of 26.5%.
Associated Companies
If you control multiple companies, your tax thresholds are slashed. £50k becomes £25k (or less).
Disallowed Expenses
Treating client entertaining or depreciation as tax-deductible is the most common error in DIY returns.
Tax Filing, Precision Engineered
Pre-Year End Review
Ideally, we talk *before* your year-end. This allows us to accelerate purchases (Capital Allowances) or pension contributions to reduce taxable profit.
Accounts Analysis
We take your finalised accounts and identify "add-backs" (non-deductible expenses) and "deductions" (tax-specific reliefs).
Capital Allowance Claim
We review all asset purchases. Can we claim "Full Expensing" (100% relief) or Annual Investment Allowance? This often wipes out significant tax bills.
Computation & Advice
We prepare the CT600 return and computation. We advise you exactly what to pay and when (usually 9 months + 1 day after year end).
Filing & Payment
We submit the return electronically to HMRC. We set up payment reminders so you never miss the deadline and incur interest.

Tax Reduction
A proactive service. We model group relief, research and development (R&D) claims, patent box, and complex capital allowance strategies to legally minimise your global effective tax rate.
Capital Allowances
The government offers generous reliefs for business investment. Most DIY returns miss these, leading to overpayment.
Annual Investment Allowance (AIA)
Deduct 100% of the cost of most plant and machinery (up to £1m) from your profits in the year of purchase.
Full Expensing
For larger companies, this offers 100% first-year relief on qualifying main rate plant and machinery investments with no upper cap.

Common Questions
Corporation Tax must be paid 9 months and 1 day after your year-end. The tax return (CT600) itself must be filed within 12 months.
Yes, by claiming all valid expenses and capital allowances. However, spending £1 to save 25p in tax is not a strategy. We focus on tax efficiency, not just spending.
If you made a trading loss, you pay no Corporation Tax. You can carry the loss back to the previous year to get a refund, or carry it forward to offset future profits.
Yes. We can identify potential R&D activity during the accounts process. Full technical report writing is quoted separately as a specialist service.
