For owner-directors, deciding how to take money from a company can involve more than simply choosing between salary and dividends.

Company profits, your director's loan account, pension contributions, your personal income requirements and the wider tax position can all affect the options available.

It's also worth reviewing the approach periodically rather than assuming that what worked previously remains appropriate.

If you're a company director and haven't reviewed how you take income from your business recently, our tax experts can help you look at the options in the context of your own circumstances.

📅 January 31 may be the date everyone associates with Self Assessment, but there's no need to wait until the deadline is looming to deal with your 2025/26 tax return.

Submitting earlier gives you more time to understand how much tax you owe and plan for the payment, rather than finding out shortly before it's due.

Remember, the tax itself doesn't become payable earlier simply because you file your return early!

If your records for 2025/26 are ready, now is a good time to get your Self Assessment underway. We can prepare and submit your return and make sure you know what you'll need to pay and when - just get in touch.

Another one million sole traders and landlords are expected to come into Making Tax Digital from 6 April 2027.

The next phase will apply to those with qualifying income of more than £30,000. That's your gross income from self-employment and property before expenses are deducted – not your profit.

If you're affected, you'll need compatible software to keep digital records and send quarterly updates to HMRC.

There are six months to go, and HMRC is encouraging people to start preparing now.

Think you'll be within the £30,000 threshold? Get in touch and we'll help you get ready.

How organised would your business records be if your accountant asked for them today?

Keeping invoices and receipts together, reconciling your bank regularly and recording expenses as you go can make year-end accounts much easier to prepare.

It also means fewer questions later and gives you a much clearer picture of your finances throughout the year.

If the bookkeeping is becoming another job you never quite get around to, it may be one worth taking off your list. We can help with bookkeeping and financial outsourcing, leaving you more time to concentrate on your business.

01/10/2026

There are several tax deadlines coming up in October, including an important one for anyone who needs to complete a Self Assessment tax return for the first time.

🗓️ October 5 is the deadline to notify HMRC if you need to file for 2025/26 and haven't previously registered.

We've put some of the key dates for the month ahead together here so you can plan ahead.

If you need help with an upcoming tax deadline, get in touch with the our team.

He did it! 🏅

A huge congratulations to James Barker, who completed his first ever half marathon yesterday in a brilliant 1:55:33 – well under his target of two hours!

James took on the Larking Gowen Ipswich Half Marathon to raise money for Diabetes UK, a cause particularly close to him as someone living with type 1 diabetes.

After all those weeks of training, what a result. Beatons and several members of the team were very happy to sponsor James for the challenge, and we’re all incredibly proud of what he achieved.

Well done, James! 👏🏃

If you’d still like to support his fundraising for Diabetes UK, we’ll pop the link in the comments.

There's a rather bigger weekend ahead than usual for our Trainee Accountant James Barker!

James will be taking on the Larking Gowen Ipswich Half Marathon on Sunday – his first ever half marathon.

As someone living with type 1 diabetes, James is also using the challenge to raise money for Diabetes UK and support the charity's work for people affected by all forms of diabetes.

After weeks of training, there are now just a few days to go until he takes on the 13.1 miles around Ipswich. His main objective when he signed up was simply to make it to the finish line, and we'll all be cheering him on to get there.

If you'd like to support James and make a donation to Diabetes UK, we'll put the link to his fundraising page in the comments.

Good luck, James – you've got this! 🏃

🔍 The Government is reviewing the UK's corporate reporting system, with proposals designed to simplify some of the requirements placed on businesses.

Among the changes being considered are simpler company size thresholds and exemptions, more focused annual reports, fewer unnecessary or duplicated disclosures, and greater use of digital reporting.

The Government also wants reporting requirements to be more proportionate, taking into account factors such as a company's size, ownership structure and economic impact.

Importantly, these are proposals rather than new rules. Businesses still need to meet all of the reporting requirements that currently apply to them.

The consultation forms part of a wider programme of corporate reporting reform, and we'll keep clients updated as the proposals develop and explain what any eventual changes mean in practice.
