Payroll
Whether it is just you on your payroll or if you employ some staff too, we can work with you to calculate weekly, fortnightly or monthly wage payments, provide pay slips and calculate the correct national insurance and income tax payments. We also have a Payroll portal that allows you and your staff to log in and view payslips and we can also arrange to make your payments to save you valuable time.
Cloud Accounting
You will be able to keep your paperwork up to date using a cloud accounting system. We can assist you to choose the right software for you and your business.
What Is Cloud Accounting?
A Better Overview of Your Finances
The cloud: it's nowhere, anywhere and everywhere all at once - but what is it?
Don't get hung up on the metaphor. The "cloud" is just a useful way of representing an intangible thing. If you use social media or online data drives, you're already using the cloud; you just may not realise it. Google Drive, Dropbox and online banking are all good examples.
Simply put, using the cloud just means storing and processing data over the internet. Remote servers are networked to provide vast computing resources that would otherwise be restricted to the largest and richest corporations.
You can use cloud-based software from any device with an internet connection, without the costs or hassle of upgrading your systems. It's all part of your subscription. We work with a number of providers, including, Clear Books, Odoo, Xero, FreeAgent and Quickbooks, all of which work with a whole range of business systems and payment software. It’s very easy to use and customise as your needs develop and our Kennedys Accounting team have a vast amount of knowledge to be able to assist clients.
Cloud accounting offers a useful overview of your finances and helps you work with your team, suppliers or customers, allowing you to work smarter and faster. Your data is always securely backed up and you can log in and work with us from anywhere – seeing exactly the same screen as us.

New Limited Company Set Up
Should I be a sole trader?
When you start out, a lot of people find it makes sense to go the Sole Trader route. Once you’ve established yourself a little, though, it may be advantageous to look at becoming a Limited Company.
Is a Ltd Company more tax-efficient?
A Limited Company is a more tax-efficient way to pay yourself. With more flexibility on how you draw money from your business, from salary and dividends to company pensions, you could potentially reduce your personal taxes.
Paying for our accounting services
Our payment terms couldn't be simpler. We charge on a monthly "pay-as you-go" basis and you will only pay for the services that you require. We will also put together a package to suit your requirements.
Switching from your existing accountant
