So, if your turnover is greater than £85k a year, then you’re going to have to use a computerised package for your accounts.

No – Spreadsheets are not acceptable per HMRC

No – HMRC are not going to provide free software to enable you to do it

So what system do you use? HMRC are saying that the software providers will provide the solutions and yes you will have to pay for it. As sage dealers we have negotiated a deal with Sage for the smaller cloud based options.

Sage One Start
Our Price£5 per month
Sage Price£6 per month
Sage One
Our Price£15 per month
Sage Price£20 per month

We can also guarantee that we will always be cheaper than Sage on the above products.

For larger businesses Sage have always provided the Sage Line 50 options but they are no longer available on what they call a perpetual licence – i.e. buying it ‘one off’. They have moved onto a subscription basis where the minimum subscription is £20 per month for the smallest package with one company one user. The more sophisticated the company requirements and the more users and companies you need, the more monthly subscription.

For more advice on the best package for you and a quote for the costs, please contact Pat Stopford at the Mansfield Office. Training can also be given – please ask for a quote.

Please be aware there are other Accountancy Software Packages available on the market such as Quickbooks and Xero. If you would like advice or more information on these please contact the office and we will be happy to discuss further.
