Livery Companies Accounting

Livery Company Operations

We have an extensive knowledge of the intricacies of how a livery company operates. Peter Crouch, who was the co-founder of JCA Accountants, was Clerk to the Worshipful Company of Broderers for nearly 30 years and Clerk to the Worshipful Company of Wheelwrights twice, for a combined period of 15 years whilst running an accountancy practice, Newby Crouch.

Accounting for 10 Livery Companies

During Peter’s clerkships Jackie carried out the book-keeping, tax compliance and annual accounting services to the livery companies and their related charities, in addition to providing accountancy services to an additional 10 livery companies.

JCA Accountants currently acts for 10 livery companies offering a wide range of services as required. Jackie Crouch is also an honorary liveryman of the Worshipful Company of Broderers and the Worshipful Company of Wheelwrights.

Services as Required

We can offer a full package as well as working with auditors for larger livery companies that require an annual audit or assurance review.

Personal Accounting

Sole Trader Accounts

We are able to prepare your sole trader or partnership accounts to assist in the preparation of your self assessment tax return.

Self Assessment

If your personal affairs are complicated then completing a self assessment tax return can be a daunting process. Failing to submit a return on time will incur a penalty which increases over time the longer it is outstanding. The continual changes to the tax system makes completing tax returns harder and harder potentially resulting in more fines further down the line.

We can save you a lot of time, worry, and money by handling your self assessment tax return for you. We will do all the necessary computations, complete your return, and even offer advice on how you can minimise your tax liability.

We can act as your agent, dealing directly with the HM Revenue and Customs on your behalf.

Trusts & Executorships

We provide a full range of accounting and tax services to keep the trusts compliant.

Where appropriate, we can act as trustees or executors.

Capital Gains Tax

A disposal of a residential property will be liable to Capital Gains Tax if the property is sold, gifted or transferred to someone else, other than your spouse or civil partner.

HMRC’s new reporting obligations for reporting a disposal and requirement to pay any CGT owing within 60 days using their digital UK Property Service can be a daunting prospect. For UK and non-UK residents the rules are different and we can help you navigate your way through your reporting obligations and take the stress out of the process for you.
