What our client Says
Year-end accounts without the confusion
Turn your Xero records into complete year-end accounts
Your bookkeeping tells the story of the year. Your annual accounts turn that information into formal financial statements and provide the figures needed for Corporation Tax.
Our Xero year end accounts service starts with the records already held in your Xero organisation. We review the bookkeeping, check key balances, identify required year-end adjustments and prepare the accounts based on the information available and the agreed scope.
For limited companies, the work can also include a Corporation Tax Return CT600, tax calculations and support with the required submissions. This keeps your annual accounts and corporation tax work connected to the same underlying accounting records.
If your Xero file needs correction before the accounts can be prepared, we will identify the issues first rather than carrying errors into the year-end figures.
Review the accounting records
We look at bank reconciliations, sales, purchases, payroll postings, VAT balances and key control accounts that affect your year-end position.
Prepare annual accounts and tax
We prepare the agreed year-end accounts, adjustments and Corporation Tax work using the reviewed accounting data.
Review, approve and file
We explain the key figures, resolve final questions and support the agreed Companies House and HMRC filing process.

Why Xero helps at year end
Keep bookkeeping, annual accounts and tax connected
When bookkeeping is maintained properly in Xero, your year-end accountant can work from a live accounting record rather than rebuilding the year from separate spreadsheets.
Xero’s UK accounting and tax tools can connect bookkeeping records with company accounts and Corporation Tax workflows. For accountants using Xero Tax, data can flow from the books into accounts production and tax preparation, which can reduce duplicate entry and make review work easier.
One accounting record:
Bank, sales, purchases and journals stay connected to the year-end figures.
Clear audit trail:
Source transactions and supporting records can be reviewed when questions arise.
Faster issue spotting:
Unreconciled or unusual balances can be identified before final accounts are approved.
Better continuity:
The closing position becomes the starting point for the next accounting year.
Xero year end accounts built from the books you use all year
Good year-end work starts with good underlying records. We use the information in Xero as the base, then review and adjust it as required for the agreed accounts and tax work.
Books
Transactions, bank feeds, invoices, bills and journals.
Accounts
Year-end review, adjustments and statutory accounts preparation.
Tax
Corporation Tax calculation, CT600 preparation and filing support.
