Business Taxation

As your tax advisers, our primary objective is to work closely with you to ensure you pay the minimum tax required by law.

We will help you to understand the tax implications of your business activities and decisions, in order that you can plan ahead and run your business in a tax efficient way.

Corporation tax services

Under Corporation Tax Self Assessment (CTSA), the legal responsibility for correctly calculating the corporation tax liability falls on business owners.

Alexander James & Co understand the issues facing owner-managed businesses when confronted with the administrative burden of compliance with current tax legislation.

We will help to minimise corporate tax exposure and prepare tax computations and returns in a timely and efficient manner. Effective corporate tax planning can also result in significant improvements in your bottom line.

Value Added Tax

Ever changing regulations and the growing demands of VAT compliance are a difficult administrative process.  We can help to ensure that you comply with the regulations and that overpayments are not made. To help you manage this complex area, we provide an efficient, cost-effective VAT service, which includes:

• assistance with VAT registration;
• advice on VAT planning and administration;
• use of the most appropriate scheme;
• VAT control and reconciliation;
• help with completing VAT returns;
• planning to minimise future problems with Customs and Excise; and
• negotiating with Customs and Excise in disputes and representing you at VAT tribunals if necessary.

HMRC Investigations

Being the subject of a tax investigation by the HMRC can be a stressful and worrying experience.

With the onset of corporate self-assessment, Revenue staff can now review cases on a 'sample basis'; consequently, tax investigations have become more frequent.

Alexander James & Co have a wealth of experience in dealing with HMRC investigations.

If you are about to be the subject of an investigation, we can provide expert help and, very importantly, support through this difficult process.
