Frequently asked questions
What specific tax issues do accountants for dentists handle?
Accountants for dentists typically manage complex areas such as VAT on dental services, which can be partially exempt, and the tax treatment of associate payments versus practice income. They also handle Self Assessment tax returns, capital allowances on expensive equipment, and ensure compliance with HMRC regulations regarding private patient fees and NHS contracts.
How do I choose between an ACCA and an ICAEW qualified accountant?
Both ACCA and ICAEW qualifications are highly respected and indicate a strong level of professional competence. The choice often comes down to personal preference or specific experience. You should look for a firm that demonstrates a clear specialism in the dental sector, regardless of the specific body, and check that they have a current practising certificate and relevant professional indemnity insurance.
Why is it important to use a specialist accountant rather than a general practitioner?
A specialist accountant understands the unique financial structure of dental practices, including the distinction between principal and associate taxation. They are familiar with the specific expenses you can claim, such as lab fees and professional indemnity, and can offer tailored advice on practice valuation and succession planning, which a general practitioner may not be equipped to provide.
Can an accountant help me with my practice's VAT registration?
Yes, absolutely. Dental services are generally exempt from VAT, but there are exceptions for certain private treatments and cosmetic procedures. An accountant can analyse your income streams to determine if you are required to register for VAT, advise on the best scheme to use, and manage the complex partial exemption calculations to ensure you recover the maximum amount of input tax legally.
What should I look for when reviewing a firm's profile on AccountingFirms?
When browsing profiles, look for clear evidence of experience with dental clients, including any specific case studies or testimonials. Check their listed qualifications to ensure they are from recognised bodies like ACCA, ICAEW, or AAT. Also, review their stated services to confirm they offer Corporation Tax, Self Assessment, and payroll services, which are essential for a modern dental practice.
How often should I meet with my accountant to discuss my practice finances?
It is advisable to have a formal review meeting at least twice a year, in addition to receiving regular management accounts. However, you should have access to your accountant for ad-hoc advice whenever needed, such as when considering a new equipment purchase or changing your practice structure. Proactive communication is key to effective financial planning and avoiding year-end surprises.
