Why Choose Figures

Economics and expertise that put you first

Keeping Accounting Costs Low

For small and medium sized companies, the decision to use professional bookkeeping service is important. Traditional accountants tend to charge high-overhead fees and are often less flexible in their services. In today's competitive business world, economics and financial control is an essential part of every company's success, and an increasing number of operators are monitoring and scrutinising their financial status on a daily basis.

Peace of Mind

It is therefore essential to establish and maintain highly efficient, accurate and up to date financial records that are available for immediate access; especially for checking revenues, taxation, banking, expenditure and the critical profit and loss status. With the Figures service, you will have peace of mind, in the knowledge that all aspects of your bookkeeping requirements are precisely and professionally maintained.

Outsourcing is Economic

Utilising our managed off-site bookkeeping service is a logical and economic way of cutting overheads. It saves on management time, eliminates internal staff salaries, reduces overheads and vacates valuable office space. We can take care of the breadth and depth of your bookkeeping requirements across the entire trading process.

Objective Monitoring

A key advantage is that we are objective and able to monitor and appraise your cash flow, profit and loss, taxation and payroll at all times. As your trusted bookkeepers, we aim to monitor and safeguard your company's financial transactions to ensure that your revenues, cash flow and bankings are realising the best possible profitable advantage. For example, we saved over £25,000 for one of our clients by advising that incorrect bank interest charges were being applied on their business overdraft.

Up to Date Compliance

We can advise on prudent, efficient transacting and we stay right up to date on the latest legal requirements and inform our clients ahead of time – especially in VAT, PAYE and Taxation. Our commitment is to provide timely and accurate filing of all legally required returns on behalf of our clients, where there can be severe penalties for missing deadlines. The aim is to become your dedicated support service as well as your trusted partner in business.
