Frequently asked questions
Why do restaurants need a specialist accountant rather than a general practitioner?
Restaurants face unique issues such as VAT on food, tips distribution, stock valuation and staff turnover. A specialist accountant understands these areas and can advise on menu pricing, wastage and payroll. They also know HMRC rules for hospitality, including tronc arrangements and allowable expenses. This specialist knowledge helps reduce tax bills and avoid compliance errors.
What qualifications should I look for in an accountant for my restaurant?
Look for professionals regulated by ACCA, ICAEW or AAT. These bodies ensure members meet strict ethical and technical standards. A qualified accountant can prepare VAT returns, Corporation Tax computations and Self Assessment filings accurately. They also stay updated on HMRC changes, such as Making Tax Digital, which affects how restaurants keep records.
How can an accountant help with VAT and Corporation Tax for a restaurant?
An accountant ensures VAT is calculated correctly on food, drink and takeaways, applying the right rates. They prepare and file VAT returns on time and advise on schemes such as flat rate or cash accounting. For limited companies, they compute Corporation Tax, claim capital allowances on equipment and ensure HMRC deadlines are met, avoiding penalties.
What records should a restaurant keep for Self Assessment and tax returns?
Restaurants should keep daily sales records, purchase invoices, payroll details, bank statements and receipts for expenses. These support Self Assessment and tax returns. An accountant can organise digital records, reconcile takings and ensure all income and allowable expenses are reported correctly to HMRC, reducing the risk of an enquiry.
Can an accountant help with payroll and pensions for restaurant staff?
Yes. Accountants manage PAYE, National Insurance, sick pay and pension auto-enrolment for hospitality teams. They handle tips and tronc schemes correctly, ensuring tax and National Insurance are applied properly. This saves restaurant owners time and ensures staff are paid accurately whilst meeting HMRC requirements.
