Home Services Year-end reviewUnited Kingdom
🇬🇧 United KingdomYear-end review outsourcing for UK firms and businesses
A pre-year-end review against FRS 102 or FRS 105, catching the VAT, directors' loan and CIS issues that otherwise surface during accounts preparation.
What's different in the United Kingdom
Every market has its own traps. These are the ones our the United Kingdom pod is trained to handle as routine rather than as escalation.
- VAT control account agreed to submitted returns for the year
- Directors' loan account movements analysed and agreed
- CIS deductions agreed to monthly returns
- Companies House filing deadline mapped against the review timetable
What we review
- Every balance sheet account agreed to third-party evidence
- Bank, loan, credit card and inter-company reconciliations tested
- Debtor and creditor ledgers aged and agreed to control accounts
- Stock, WIP and fixed asset registers verified against the ledger
- Revenue cut-off and accrual/prepayment completeness testing
- Prior-year comparatives agreed to the signed accounts
What you receive
- A finalised trial balance ready to take forward
- Proposed adjusting journals, each with its supporting rationale
- An exception report listing what we could not verify and why
- A schedule of open questions for the client or director
- Working papers indexed so your reviewer can follow the trail
A review service, not an assurance engagement. We do not express an audit or review opinion — that requires a licensed practitioner in your jurisdiction.
Two ways to buy
Accounting firms in the United Kingdom usually take a dedicated team under their own brand. Businesses usually take a managed engagement priced on volume.

Year-end review in the United Kingdom
Who does the year-end review work?
Qualified accountants in our the United Kingdom pod, trained specifically on FRS 102 and FRS 105 and HMRC requirements. They work on your files only, and every deliverable is checked by a second reviewer before it reaches you.
Do you file with HMRC on our behalf?
No. We prepare, reconcile and document; your licensed practitioner reviews, signs and files. That keeps professional responsibility exactly where it belongs and means you carry no licensing risk from working with us.
How quickly can year-end review move across?
Twelve working days from signed scope to first reviewed deliverable in most cases. We document the process first, run two cycles in parallel with your existing team, then take it over once output matches.
What does it cost?
Dedicated accountants start at $1,850 per month; managed engagements are priced on transaction volume from $450 per entity per month. Indicative rates and volume bands are on the pricing page, quoted in GBP if you prefer.
