Statutory accounts, also known as statutory financial statements, are formal reports prepared annually by companies in the UK in accordance with accounting standards (such as FRS 102 or FRS 105). They are important for businesses as they provide a comprehensive view of financial performance, position, cash flows, and compliance with legal and regulatory requirements. FAQ 3 question: When are statutory accounts due to be filed with Companies House, and what are the consequences of late filing?
Statutory accounts are due to be filed with Companies House within a specified timeframe after the end of the financial year. Late filing can result in penalties, fines, and potential legal consequences, highlighting the importance of timely and accurate financial reporting.
Outsourcing statutory accounts services can benefit businesses by ensuring compliance, accuracy, and efficiency in financial reporting, allowing companies to focus on core operations and strategic growth. When choosing an accounting firm for this service, companies should consider expertise, experience, reputation, and cost-effectiveness.
Statutory financial statements are used by many people and organisations for example, the business owner, potential customers or suppliers, financial institutions, potential employees and credit reference agencies.
Statutory accounts have to follow a prescribed format as laid out by company law and have to be filed with Companies House each year. Non statutory accounts don’t have a set format and are not filed with Companies House.
