Accounts preparation
Compliance is standard.
This is a phrase that every accountant should live their life by. For those of you that don’t know, it essentially means ‘doing things in the correct way’, not cutting corners, not exposing clients to vulnerabilities and always doing things legally and professionally. In fact, if you ever find an accountant that is not concerned about compliance then don’t go near them, it will only end in tears.
Tax returns
“In this world nothing can be said to be certain other than death and taxes”.
However, we believe that the line should go on to say, “but how much tax you pay is down to whether you work with us at Mountain Top.”
We consider it to be our job to make sure that our client legally pay the lowest amount of tax possible and there are many and various ways in which we can do that for you.

Business Valuations
There are numerous reasons why you as a business owner might need to value your business.
Apart from the obvious, which is knowing what it’s worth for your own peace of mind, you may find that there are other reasons for knowing what the true value is. You may wish to sell that business, you may wish to buy another business. You possibly need to borrow against it or simply need to have its values for an income protection policy for yourself or other key members of the management team.
