FRS 105 Micro Entity Accounts in Thrapston

FRS 105 Micro Entity Accounts are prepared under the financial reporting framework that applies to qualifying micro-entities which choose to apply the UK micro-entities regime. In Thrapston and across the surrounding area, we help company directors understand whether that regime is available to them and prepare a set of FRS 105 accounts that reflects the company’s own financial records, its activities and its reporting requirements. FRS 105 is a simplified framework, but it still requires care: the balance sheet, the notes and the disclosures all need to be presented appropriately, and the figures must agree to the underlying bookkeeping. Professional preparation helps ensure the accounts are put together on a consistent basis, that the accounting policies used suit the company’s circumstances, and that the resulting financial statements are ready for the director to review and approve. It is important to be clear that not every small company qualifies for the micro-entities regime — eligibility depends on the size conditions and on other rules and exclusions — so the starting point is always a proper look at the company’s position rather than an assumption.

I highly recommend Imran to anyone looking for a reliable and knowledgeable accountant. He helped me sort out a very complicated backlog of accounts and prepared my overdue tax returns with professionalism and attention to detail. Throughout the process, he was incredibly patient, took the time to answer all of my questions, and explained everything clearly. He guided me through each step and helped rectify issues that had built up over time, making what felt like an overwhelming situation much more manageable. I'm very pleased with the service I've received and truly appreciate his support. If you need help with your accounts or taxes, I would highly recommend Imran.

We worked with a few different accountants before finally settling with Accotax, and we’re really glad we did. Their team is great. Abdul is responsive and easy to reach whenever I have a question, which makes a big difference. They take the time to understand how our business works and what our needs are. They are very knowledgeable, and when they don’t have the answer straight away, they take the time to look into it and get back to us quickly. Anum, who looks after our account on a day-to-day basis, including reconciling invoices and preparing the annual accounts, is amazing. She is professional, efficient, and follows the processes we have put in place together. She's also very quickin getting back to us whenever needed. We’re very happy to work with her and hope to continue doing so for as long as possible. Overall, Accotax has made our accounting experience much smoother and easier. We see them as a long-term partner as our business continues to grow. I would 100% recommend them.

I have really impressed to date with all dealings with Accotax highly enough. From day one, they've made what can often be a complicated and stressful part of running a business feel straightforward and hassle-free. A special mention has to go to Anum, who has been friendly, incredibly responsive, and genuinely cares about providing the best possible service. No question is ever too much trouble, and she consistently goes above and beyond to make sure everything is dealt with efficiently. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend you to anyone looking for an accountant they can genuinely trust.

─── FRS 105 EXPLAINED

FRS 105 Explained: What It Means for Micro-Entities

FRS 105 is the UK financial reporting standard written specifically for micro-entities. In plain terms, it is the accounting framework that a qualifying company uses when it decides to apply the micro-entities regime, and it allows the accounts to be prepared in a simplified form compared with the standards used by larger companies. Under FRS 105, the financial statements are built around a balance sheet and supporting notes, with a much lighter set of disclosures than you would see under FRS 102, and with simpler measurement requirements. The key point is that FRS 105 is not something every small company is automatically placed into. A company first needs to qualify for the micro-entities regime, and then the directors need to choose to apply it. When that choice is made, FRS 105 is the framework that governs how the accounts are drawn up. Understanding this distinction matters in Thrapston and elsewhere, because it affects how the numbers are presented, what the accounts include, and how they sit alongside the company’s other filing obligations. If you are unsure whether the micro-entities regime is the right route for your company, talking it through before the year end is usually far easier than revisiting decisions afterwards.

Who Can Use FRS 105 in the UK?

FRS 105 is aimed at companies that qualify for the UK micro-entities regime and then choose to apply it. Two things have to line up: the company must fall within the size conditions, and the directors must decide to adopt the regime rather than a fuller framework. For accounting periods beginning on or after 6 April 2025, a company generally needs to meet at least 2 of 3 applicable size conditions — turnover of no more than £1 million, a balance sheet total of no more than £500,000, and an average of no more than 10 employees. Those figures are the starting point, not the whole picture. Other eligibility rules and exclusions can apply depending on the nature of the company and its activities, and some entities are not able to use the micro-entities regime at all. Meeting the size tests therefore does not automatically mean a company qualifies, and qualifying does not automatically mean the regime must be used. For directors in Thrapston considering FRS 105 Micro Entity Accounts, the practical approach is to review the company’s turnover, balance sheet position and headcount across the relevant periods, check for any exclusions that might apply, and confirm the choice of framework before the accounts are prepared.

A company generally needs to meet at least 2 of these 3 conditions.

Business Turnover

Annual Turnover of £1 Million or less. (£632,000 previously)

Balance Sheet

Balance sheet total of £500,000 or less.(£316,000 previously)

Company Size

On an average 10 or less employees
(10 or less previously)

─── What We Review

Everything Your Micro-Entity Company Is Required to Get Right

Most compliance problems are not deliberate. They come from a missed deadline, an accounts template that no longer matches FRS 105, or dividends taken without the paperwork to support them. Our review covers each area in turn and reports back in plain English.

─── WHO WE HELP

FRS 105 Support for Micro-Entities Across the UK

Professionally Prepared FRS 105 Accounts and Accurate Financial Reporting

Preparing FRS 105 Micro Entity Accounts properly starts with the company’s own financial records. We work from the bookkeeping, bank information, sales and expense detail, asset records and any other supporting documentation to build a set of financial statements that reflects the company’s transactions for the period. From there, the accounts are drawn up in line with the FRS 105 framework and the applicable reporting requirements, including the balance sheet, the accounting policies and the notes that the framework expects a micro-entity to provide. Two things are worth keeping separate in your mind. First, there is the preparation of the financial statements themselves. Second, there is the filing of those accounts with Companies House, which is a distinct step with its own process. Corporation Tax is separate again: a CT600 is a tax return submitted to HMRC, not a set of accounts, and it is prepared and filed under different rules and timescales. We can help you keep those strands clearly separated, so you know what is being prepared, what is being filed and where, and what information is still outstanding from you. Nothing here amounts to a guarantee of acceptance or approval by any body — the aim is simply to produce accurate, well-supported accounts based on your records.

FRS 105 is the UK financial reporting standard designed for micro-entities. It sets out how a qualifying company that chooses to apply the micro-entities regime prepares its financial statements, allowing a simplified presentation built around the balance sheet and supporting notes, with lighter disclosure requirements than standards such as FRS 102. It is an accounting framework rather than a tax regime, so it governs how the accounts are drawn up rather than how much tax is payable.

FRS 105 is intended for companies that both qualify for the micro-entities regime and choose to apply it. Qualification is based on the size conditions along with other rules and exclusions that can apply to certain company types or activities. Meeting the size tests does not automatically guarantee eligibility, so it is worth reviewing your company's specific position before deciding on the framework.

No. The micro-entities regime is an available accounting regime, not an obligation. A company that qualifies may choose to apply it, and if it does, FRS 105 is the framework used to prepare the accounts. Qualifying companies that do not adopt the micro-entities regime will report under a different standard instead, so the choice is a genuine decision for the directors rather than something imposed automatically.

For accounting periods beginning on or after 6 April 2025, a company generally needs to meet at least 2 of 3 applicable size conditions: turnover of no more than £1 million, a balance sheet total of no more than £500,000, and an average of no more than 10 employees. These conditions sit alongside other rules and exclusions, so satisfying 2 of the 3 tests does not by itself confirm that a company qualifies for the regime.

Both are UK financial reporting standards, but they are aimed at different sizes of entity. FRS 105 is the lighter framework for qualifying micro-entities, with simplified measurement and fewer disclosures. FRS 102 is the standard used more widely and includes fuller recognition, measurement and disclosure requirements. The framework chosen affects how the accounts are presented and how much detail appears in the notes.

Where a company prepares accounts under FRS 105, those financial statements are generally the accounts that get filed at Companies House, subject to the filing requirements that apply to the company. Filing the accounts is a separate step from preparing them, and it is also separate from anything submitted to HMRC. We can handle the preparation and talk you through the filing process so you know exactly what is being sent and when.

Yes, they are distinct. FRS 105 accounts are the financial statements prepared under the micro-entities framework. A CT600 is a Corporation Tax Return submitted to HMRC, prepared under tax rules and on HMRC's own timescales. The two are connected in the sense that the accounts inform the tax position, but they are separate documents with separate purposes and separate submission routes.

A newly incorporated company can potentially use FRS 105 if it qualifies for the micro-entities regime and the directors choose to apply it. Because a new company has no trading history, eligibility is usually assessed against its expected size and circumstances. First-year accounts can involve a longer or shorter accounting period than usual, which is one of the details worth discussing before the year end rather than afterwards.

Typically we need a full record of income and expenditure for the period, bank and credit card statements or reconciled bookkeeping, details of fixed assets and any depreciation agreed, information on loans, directors' balances and intercompany amounts, plus stock or work-in-progress figures where relevant. Anything unusual — a one-off transaction, a change of accounting policy or a new source of income — is worth flagging early so it can be handled correctly in the accounts.

The UK filing framework for small and micro-entity accounts has been under review, with a move towards filing accounts in a digital, tagged format and simplified balance sheet structures. Because the detail and timing of these changes can shift, it is best to check the current position for your own accounting period rather than relying on older guidance. We can explain what the changes mean for your company when you get in touch.
