We're ICAEW auditors based in London on the Citry fringe. Based soley on the information above (which may of course be incomplete) I can't see that we would quote more than £12k plus vat.
I've just paid my £300 for full subs as I was impressed with the free stuff and wanted access to the rest. The site seems to be growing all the time and so far I've saved many times what I've paid in research time. I'm a practicing accountant, sole trader with 4 staff. My clients are all small businesses wanting to do the things small businessmen always want to do - claim as many expenses that they can and pay as little tax as possible. For me it's the basic stuff that I've always intended to sit down and write up a couple of pages about but have never had the time - travel, subsistence, entertaining, P11ds, etc. There's also the problem of keeping it up to date. The newsletter is great, it seems mostly relevant so I'm not wasting my time. I thought about the price but having spent many (non chargeable) hours on the web looking through HMRC manuals and comparing it to some of the books I buy each year, the price is very reasonable. I recommend it.

Commercial
Slightly off topic. Is there any guidance for management companies of commercial sites?
Ltd by G to Co Hse
How do you file LbyG acs at Co Hse - I thought you needed some share capital? You're not putting the guarantee amount on the balance sheet are you?
Just specify holidays
My contracts of employment just state the maximum entitlement in days (which can vary but not less than 28) and that this includes bank holidays.
