Which dates should I use for financial reporting?

Which dates should I use for financial reporting?

Didn't find your answer?

My last accountant prepared financials for 20 April 2007 to 30 April 2008. We have paid Corporation Tax up to 30 April 2008.

Should my next financial report period be from

20 April 2008 to 30 April 2009?

or

1 March 2008 to 30 April 2009?

Presumably your company was incorporated on 20th April 2007 so the first accounts were correctly drawn up to 30th April 2008. Your next set of accounts will run from 1st May 2008 to 30th April 2009. However you have the option of shortening or extending the accounting period to a more desirable year end by notifying Companies House on form 225.
