The team speaks about the 1.1m who missed the deadline and what's next for accountants now that another self assessment is over. Tom Herbert details the Companies House agent filing system, requiring firms filing for clients to register on a new system.

With Christmas and New Year fast approaching, the AccountingWEB team reunites for their final podcast of 2024, reflecting on the year's biggest stories.

The team discusses ongoing lessons and why it's important to keep this issue in focus. Next, they tackle HMRC's pattern of U-turns, including this year's reversals on double cab pickups and helpline cuts, sharing what these shifts reveal about HMRC's direction.

This week's podcast brings together four cloud accounting commentators to discuss the evolving role of technology in accounting, the varying adoption rates of cloud solutions, and the future of artificial intelligence in the industry. Recorded on location at Oracle NetSuite's SuiteWorld conference in Las Vegas, AccountingWEB technology editor Tom Herbert was joined by American duo Blake Oliver and David Leary from The Accounting Podcast and Australia's Heather Smith from the Accounting Apps Podcast,

This week AccountingWEB is joined by Bradley Channer, CFO at UBIO and CIMA council member. Channer talks about how the managing director of Mineral Resources wanted to hold his staff captive all day, not wanting them to leave even for a coffee. The team shares their opinion, emphasising why workplaces need to be attractive for employees and what accounting can learn from this. Tom Herbert speaks about carbon accounting software, explaining what it is, why accountants should care and what kind of software is available. And finally, with the government proposing to hike windfall taxes from 75% to 78% and the industry raising their concerns, Matthew Ord questions whether the government will listen.

The AccountingWEB team dive right into Labour's landslide victory last week, talking about Keir Starmer and the first female Chancellor, Rachel Reeves. They question whether Reeves will pause and take consultation from those involved in the industry. Tom Herbert discusses a popular topic, choosing the right software and apps. He explores the term ‘best', why that's not always the case for software and other factors that need to be considered. Turning back to the election, Richard Hattersley shared that accountancy candidates were obliterated. Has the electorate fallen out of love with accountants and why? Finally, Matthew Ord sheds light onto HMRC who was criticised for being unable to fix a problem of its own making after the department wrongly refunded voluntary class 2 national insurance contributions.

Sukhinder Singh Cassidy, CEO of Xero, tells AccountingWEB technology editor Tom Herbert why the cloud accounting platform has shifted to a more focused approach, how accounting firms can take more risks, and what doing the books for her family's business taught her about the profession.

Richard Hattersley follows on from the previous episode of election talk by going through each party's manifestos and the tax promises they are pledging. The AccountingWEB team look at what's missing and how the political parties expect to pay for these promises. We are joined by Tom Herbert live at Xerocon, giving us the inside scoop on the latest announcements that are being made and some updates on AI. Our special guest Mike Goldsmith, head of events at Sift, chats about the Accounting Excellence Awards. He shares what's new, popular categories and the trends he is seeing. He offers some advice on what the judges are looking for in this year's entries. Goldsmith also reveals an increased deadline to 28 June so get applying! Matthew Ord rounds off the podcast with some M&A chat, looking at the uncertainties that life can bring and why having an exit strategy is so important. This episode of No Accounting for Taste is sponsored by Comarch, a global IT business and solutions provider that optimises operational and business processes: https://www.comarch.com/

Richard Murphy is a professor of accounting practice at Sheffield University Management School, a chartered accountant and an economic justice campaigner. He joins AccountingWEB for a new episode of No Accounting for Taste. Discussion begins on Labour's plans to raise an extra £5bn a year by tackling tax avoidance. Murphy offers his take on whether shadow Chancellor Rachel Reeves is looking in the right places and whether she is speaking to the right people. Murphy's taxing wealth report is shared as he discusses that with certain measures, £90bn could be raised. Talk then turns to the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales's (ICAEW) annual accounts being recently published. The team alongside Murphy looks at the funds paid to the ICAEW as a result of fines and penalties given to chartered accountants, whether things have changed in the accounts and what's next for the reserves.

After the Easter weekend, the AccountingWEB team joined for another episode of No Accounting for Taste. Tom zeroes in on HMRC matters, exploring their new One Login service, questioning why now and what impact this will have. He also delves into recent complaints lodged against HMRC after their letter to Devonports LAS accountants contained multiple errors. The team asks how a letter like that gets posted and how are they written. With the recent news that the Accounting Excellence Awards are now open, Richard looks back at the entries from last year and discusses the most common trends and challenges.

In this episode, Tom Herbert, technology editor at Accounting Web, shares his insights on the British Post Office scandal, which has been ongoing for decades, ruining the lives of many subpostmasters. Heather and Tom discussed the problems with the Post Office's Fujitsu Horizon point of sale system implementation, leading to unbalanced reconciliations and accusations of theft against subpostmasters. The Post Office used its prosecution powers and prosecuted 700 subpostmasters between 1989 and 2015, resulting in jail time, financial ruin, relationship breakdown, lost homes, living in cars, and sadly much much worse. The scandal is discussed from the perspective of an accountant, the POS implementation, the forensic accountant who aided in uncovering the issues, the suspense account, the high tax hitting the subpostmasters when they received any compensation. The story behind this scandal, Mr Bates vs the Post Office, was broadcast on ITV in January 2024. We talk about the importance of storytelling in bringing this story into the narrative of the general public.

We hate to break it to you, but…    The internet is not special. It's just one of many marketing principles to lay hold of (albeit - a necessary one in this time).   At least, that's what our guest Jassen Bowman, EA, asserts in this episode of the ProMarketer Podcast. He says it's no different from any other offline marketing medium.    Of course, tax and accounting firms still need a strong online presence and a plan for marketing to new and existing clientele.    But despite all the fancy tips and tricks for how to market online, a lot of the tried-and-true marketing principles still apply to the internet. After all, why reinvent the wheel when it's rolling just fine?   In this episode, Jassen Bowman joins TaxProMarketer CEO Nate Hagerty to discuss how fundamental marketing principles are more applicable than ever for both your online and offline marketing. As an Enrolled Agent, Jassen has presented over 500 live seminars and webinars to CPAs, EAs, and attorneys on the subjects of tax firm marketing, practice management, ethics, real estate, and taxpayer representation. He has authored over a dozen books for tax professionals and written for NSA's Main Street Practitioner, NAEA's EA Journal, AccountingWeb, and CPA Trendlines.    Check out Jassen's latest book, Profit Optimizers: 12 Big Ideas for a More Profitable Tax Firm, here: https://jassenbowman.com/books/

In this interview with Rob Brown, Joe speaks with passionate authority about what a disruption proof firm looks like as we emerge from the covid pandemic. He explains what a true cloud accounting firm looks like, and the main disrupters that are making many firms irrelevant or commoditised. Joe dives into the term advisory, shares why CPAs and accountants miss the mark and why they haven't been good custodians of the trusted advisor label. He shows how accountants misinterpret the word 'trusted' and highlights the talent problems coming up for accounting as the boomers move up and out. Joe speaks passionately about what has stopped CPA firms competing and future proofing as well as they could have. If you want to know whether accountants should think more like entrepreneurs or the other way round, Joe has the answers. The blurred lines between bookkeepers and accountants is also explored by Joe, who gives an excellent analogy in how doctors and nurses look after their patients. He finishes with practical advice for accounting firms who want to defend the brand of the profession, the culture of their firm and the impact of disruption on their business. All these goodies and more - Joe's interview has exceptional content for those accountants and firms who want to move from good to great. ************************************ Fun facts about Joe: he is a proud unashamed Star Trek nerd and has even been to conventions!
