PAYROLL ADMINISTRATION

Payroll administration encompasses all the tasks involved in paying an organisation's employees. It typically involves keeping track of hours worked and ensuring that employees receive the appropriate amount of pay. It also includes calculating taxes and National Insurances Contribution, as well as ensuring that they are properly withheld and processed. Depending on the company in question, a full range of other deductions may be calculated, withheld, and processed as part of payroll administration. Additionally, the processing of contractor payments may fall under the umbrella of payroll administration.

The specific tasks involved in payroll administration tend to vary according to the needs of each unique company or organisation. For example, some companies have workers that receive commissions in addition to salaries. In these companies, including commissions in employee salaries is a part of payroll administration. For some companies, it also involves assigning exempt or non-exempt status to workers, adding bonuses into pay cheques, calculating overtime payments, and adhering to applicable employment laws.

Handling payroll-related problems are part of payroll administration as well. If an employee is paid an incorrect amount or a direct deposit fails to go through, both things are payroll administration issues. Likewise tax filing and deduction errors are payroll administration matters as well.

TAXATION

Value Added Tax

A value added tax (VAT) is a form of consumption tax. From the perspective of the buyer, it is a tax on the purchase price. From that of the seller, it is a tax only on the "value added" to a product, material or service, from an accounting point of view, by this stage of its manufacture or distribution. The manufacturer remits to the government the difference between these two amounts, and retains the rest for themselves to offset the taxes they had previously paid on the inputs.

The "value added" to a product by a business is the sale price charged to its customer, minus the cost of materials and other taxable inputs. A VAT is like a sales tax in that ultimately only the end consumer is taxed. It differs from the sales tax in that, with the latter, the tax is collected and remitted to the government only once, at the point of purchase by the end consumer. With the VAT, collections, remittances to the government, and credits for taxes already paid occur each time a business in the supply chain purchases products.

We can assist in ensuring that your business complies with the regulations so that overpayments can be avoided.

Completing VAT returns and submission

Tax Return

In the United Kingdom, a tax return is a document that must be filed with the HM Revenue & Customs declaring liability for taxation. Different bodies must file different returns with respect to various forms of taxation.

Who needs to complete a tax return?

If you pay tax on your earnings or pensions through PAYE (Pay As You Earn) tax is deducted automatically and self-assessment is not usually necessary. But if you have more complicated tax affairs, you may need to complete a self-assessment tax return. This includes the self-employed, company directors or trustees and people who have foreign or rental income.

It also includes employees, pensioners, those who receive untaxed income and annual investment income.

Corporation tax

A company must file a return, using form CT600, and assess its liability to tax, normally within 12 months of the end of its accounting year.

The main returns currently in use are:

  • SA100 for individuals paying Income Tax
  • SA800 for partnerships
  • SA900 for trusts and estates of deceased persons
  • CT600 for companies paying Corporation Tax

CONSULTANCY MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

Management accounting or managerial accounting is concerned with the provisions and use of accounting information to managers within organisations, to provide them with the basis to make informed business decisions that will allow them to be better equipped in their management and control functions.

In contrast to financial accounting information, management accounting information is:

  • forward-looking, instead of historical;
  • model based with a degree of abstraction to support decision making generically, instead of case based;
  • designed and intended for use by managers within the organisation, instead of being intended for use by shareholders, creditors, and public regulators;
  • usually confidential and used by management, instead of publicly reported;
  • Computed by reference to the needs of managers, often using management information systems, instead of by reference to general financial accounting standards.
