That is the group the micro-entity rules were written for.
The largest groups of micro businesses in Stratford-on-Avon are professional, scientific and technical services (1,470), construction (950) and wholesale and retail (900). If you work in professional, scientific and technical services in Stratford-upon-Avon, 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 20% of the local micro-business base.

In construction (950 micro businesses in Stratford-on-Avon), Construction Industry Scheme deductions, retentions and stage payments can distort profit, so we reconcile your CIS statements before the accounts are prepared. In wholesale and retail (900 micro businesses in Stratford-on-Avon), 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.
