💷 Making money but wondering where it's all going?

You're busy. Sales are coming in. But somehow, the bank balance never seems to reflect how well you think the business is doing.

Sound familiar?

Good budgeting and cashflow forecasting can help you understand exactly where your money is going – and, more importantly, what's likely to happen next.

We've put together a simple guide covering four ways to take greater control of your business finances.

No complicated accounting jargon. Just practical advice for business owners.

💰 **Are you paying more tax than you need to?**

Our **August 2026 newsletter** is now available.

This month we're answering some important questions:

❓ Could HMRC owe you a tax refund?

📈 Thinking about selling shares or investments? What could the Capital Gains Tax bill be?

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Can you give money to your children or grandchildren without creating an Inheritance Tax problem?

❤️ Did you know gifting certain shares, land or property to charity could provide valuable tax relief?

📅 And are all your upcoming HMRC deadlines in the diary?

Tax planning works best when it's done **before the transaction happens – not months afterwards when we're preparing the tax return.**

At Bidwell Accountancy, we work proactively with our clients to help them understand their tax position and plan ahead.

📊 What your business is really worth

We’ve broken it down in simple terms (no jargon!) so you can finally make sense of your numbers 👇

📢 Important update for sole traders and landlords!

From 6 April 2026, Making Tax Digital for Income Tax is mandatory if your annual income exceeds £50,000 — and that means quarterly digital submissions to HMRC, not just one annual tax return.

Do you know when your first quarterly update is due? Or what happens if you're both a sole trader and a landlord?

We've broken it all down in our latest blog — everything you need to know about quarterly updates, deadlines, and the final declaration.

Have you been paying yourself the wrong way as a company director?

For years, the advice was simple:
✅ Pay yourself a low salary
✅ Take the rest as dividends

But with increases to Corporation Tax and Dividend Tax, that strategy may no longer be the most tax-efficient.

The worrying part? Many directors are still using the same remuneration strategy they were given years ago without anyone reviewing it.

Has your accountant spoken to you about this recently?

If not... why not?

At Bidwell Accountancy, we proactively review our clients' tax positions to help ensure they're not paying more tax than they need to.

Read our latest blog to find out whether your current strategy is costing you money.
