Frequently asked questions
How can an accountant help my restaurant with VAT returns?
A qualified accountant can assess whether you qualify for the flat rate scheme or need standard VAT accounting. They will prepare and submit returns to HMRC, ensure you reclaim input tax on eligible purchases, and advise on complex areas such as deposits, tips, and mixed supplies. This reduces errors and helps you avoid penalties.
What should I look for in an accountant for a restaurant?
Look for ACCA, ICAEW, or AAT membership, experience with hospitality clients, and familiarity with HMRC Making Tax Digital. They should understand payroll for variable hours, pension auto-enrolment, and Corporation Tax. Check they offer cloud accounting support and can provide references from similar food businesses.
Do I need an accountant if I am a sole trader running a café?
Whilst not a legal requirement, an accountant helps you calculate taxable profit accurately, claim allowable expenses, and file Self Assessment on time. They can advise on Class 2 and Class 4 National Insurance, and ensure you do not miss deadlines. This often saves more than the fee.
How much does a restaurant accountant typically charge?
Fees vary based on turnover, transaction volume, and services required. Monthly packages for bookkeeping, VAT, and payroll may start from around one hundred pounds per month. Annual accounts and Corporation Tax returns are often quoted separately. Compare quotes from several firms to find a competitive rate.
Can an accountant help with HMRC investigations?
Yes. If HMRC opens an enquiry into your tax affairs, a qualified accountant can act as your agent, prepare responses, and negotiate on your behalf. They will ensure your records are presented clearly and that you understand your rights. This professional representation can reduce stress and potential liabilities.
What records should I keep for my restaurant accounts?
Keep daily till rolls, bank statements, supplier invoices, payroll records, and VAT receipts. Also retain lease agreements, utility bills, and equipment purchase receipts. Digital records are required under Making Tax Digital. An accountant can advise on software and help organise your files for efficient tax return preparation.
