Choosing a year end

One of the things to consider when starting a business in the Preston area is choosing the best date for your year end. SKM can advise you on this.

It is important to choose the right year end for your business.

From a tax viewpoint, the choice of a year end early in the tax year for an unincorporated business often means that an increase in profits is more slowly reflected in an increased tax bill.
