Corporation Tax returns for Cambridge micro companies
Corporation Tax is charged on a limited company’s taxable profit, not its accounting profit. The main rate is 25%, the small profits rate is 19% for profits up to £50,000, and profits between £50,000 and £250,000 pay the main rate less marginal relief. Getting the adjustments right, such as adding back depreciation, claiming capital allowances and removing disallowable expenses, is what keeps the bill accurate.
What is included
- A tax computation built from your accounts
- Capital allowances on equipment and vehicles
- A review of director expenses, loan accounts and benefits
- Trading losses claimed where they arise
- Return filed with HMRC and a payment reference sent to you

Corporation Tax returns for small companies for Cambridge businesses: local facts
Cambridge is in the East of England region. Cambridge has around 5,160 VAT- and PAYE-registered businesses, and 4,390 of them, about 85%, have fewer than ten employees (ONS UK Business Counts, 2026). That is the group the micro-entity rules were written for.
The largest groups of micro businesses in Cambridge are professional, scientific and technical services (1,110), information and communication (600) and wholesale and retail (440). For professional, scientific and technical services companies in Cambridge, fee income, work in progress at the year end and how directors are paid are the key decisions, so we plan these with you before the accounts are finalised. That puts professional, scientific and technical services at 25% of the local micro-business base.
Zooming in, the ONS neighbourhood area around Cambridge (Cambridge 007) has 905 VAT- or PAYE-registered businesses, and 700 of them (77%) are micro businesses.
Cambridge ranks 803 of the 1105 areas we serve by number of micro businesses, and its micro share of 85% is below the 89% average across them. In information and communication (600 micro businesses in Cambridge), software subscriptions, equipment and contractor invoices are common, and contractors often ask about IR35, so we review both when preparing your return. In wholesale and retail (440 micro businesses in Cambridge), closing stock and the VAT treatment of different product lines are the usual pressure points, so we value stock carefully and check your VAT records.
