Full Enquiry for no apparent reason

Posted by annettedwyer PM | on Fri, 20/04/2012 - 12:36 3226 15 comments | report

We have just received a letter from HMRC regarding a full enquiry on a ltd client which has baffled us slightly.

We can see no justification whatsoever for this, nothing at all looks odd in the accounts, no overdrawn directors loans, no strange related parties or anything. Client keeps great set of books on Sage.

Is this something other accountants are finding? Is this a trend within HMRC to just start a full enquiry rather than asking aspect questions??
