Accountants in Devon: your questions answered
How much does an accountant cost in Devon?
Fees vary from firm to firm. As a rough guide, a simple Self Assessment tax return costs from about £150 to £400, sole trader accounts and tax return from about £300 to £900 a year, and a small limited company from about £1,000 to £2,500 a year. Ask any accountant in Devon for a fixed fee in writing before you start.
Do I need an accountant based in Devon?
Not necessarily, as most work can be done online. But a local accountant can meet you face to face, often knows the local business community, and is easy to drop records in to. We'll match you with a firm that covers Devon.
Are the tax rules any different in Devon?
No. Income tax, National Insurance, VAT and corporation tax are the same across England. Your accountant just needs to know your personal situation and how your business is set up.
How do I check an accountant is properly qualified?
Ask which professional body they belong to, such as ICAEW, ACCA, ICAS, CIMA, AAT or CIOT. Members follow professional rules, hold insurance and are supervised for anti-money laundering.
