Hi
I have a limited company trading for the last 7 years. The accounting firm that does my returns is a distant relative and I'm starting to think he is screwing me. We have a turnover of just under 800k and I employ a accounts person who manages all my accounts, does vat,paye etc. She has everything prepared for my accountants all they have to do is put everything together and audit the accounts? Everything is done off site I never meet him. At the end of the year when he has accounts compiled we have tele conference for abound half hour going through all the figures.Last year he charged me over 6k+vat.A person in the same industry as me with a similar turnover got all this work done for 2k which I thought was very cheap.He charges me a load of extras such as filling return to revenue €600. What is the going rate?
