That puts construction at 21% of the local micro-business base.

In professional, scientific and technical services (1,445 micro businesses in South Gloucestershire), 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. In wholesale and retail (1,075 micro businesses in South Gloucestershire), 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.
