Partnership Accounts — Oldham and UK-wide
Your partnership accounts, handled properly.
Running a partnership means two sets of compliance obligations: the partnership itself and each individual partner. Most accountants file the return and leave it at that. We keep both in view all year, so profit allocations are right, each partner knows their tax position early, and nothing lands as a surprise. Fixed monthly fee, ACCA-qualified, same-day replies.
- Partnership accounts and SA800 prepared accurately each year
- Each partner’s Self Assessment filed on time, no chasing
- Profit split arrangements reviewed so the tax position is clear
- No unexpected tax bills — partners know what they owe in advance
No long-term contract. If it is not working after three months, you leave with clean, up-to-date books and nothing outstanding.

Sound familiar?
Partnership accounts are two jobs, not one.
There is the partnership return — the SA800, profit and loss account, and balance sheet — and then there are the individual Self Assessments for each partner. Most partnerships end up doing neither on time, or discover the profit split they agreed informally does not work as well as expected once HMRC’s share is factored in. That tends to surface in January, which is not the ideal moment for a conversation about tax planning.
- SA800 deadline looming with no clear plan for who handles it
- Partners unsure what their individual tax bills will be this year
- Profit sharing arrangements agreed informally, never reviewed for tax efficiency
What a well-run partnership looks like
The SA800 is filed on time, each partner’s Self Assessment is handled alongside it, and profit allocations are reviewed before the year ends — not after. No January scramble, no awkward surprises between partners.
- SA800 and partnership accounts prepared and filed well before the deadline
- Each partner’s tax bill calculated early, with time to plan if needed
- Profit split reviewed annually so the arrangement still makes sense
- One fixed monthly fee covers the partnership and individual partner returns
What business owners say after switching
These are verbatim reviews from clients who came to us with compliance backlogs, unclear accounts, and unanswered questions. Their experience is what you can reasonably expect.

They provided exceptional service, demonstrating a deep understanding of accounting principles and tax regulations. Hasan is always prompt in responding to my inquiries and made complex financial concepts easy to understand.
Everything a UK partnership needs, covered.
One accountant handles the partnership return and each partner’s individual Self Assessment — so nothing gets missed and no one is chasing two separate firms for figures.
Partnership Accounts and SA800
Your year-end partnership accounts are prepared to Companies House and HMRC standards, with the SA800 partnership tax return filed on time. Profit and loss, balance sheet, and all supplementary pages included. No last-minute scrambles when the January deadline approaches.
Included as standardIndividual Partner Self Assessments
Each partner’s SA100 is prepared alongside the partnership return, using the correct partnership pages. Partners receive their tax calculation well before the payment deadline so there are no unexpected bills in January. Handled together, the numbers reconcile properly first time.
Included as standardProfit Allocation Review and Tax Planning
The profit-sharing ratio partners agree on informally does not always hold up well once personal tax rates, National Insurance, and allowances are considered. We review the allocation annually and flag anything worth adjusting while there is still time to act. Plain-English explanation — no jargon.

Why partnerships choose us over a general accountant
Partnership accounting has specific requirements that general practice firms sometimes treat as an afterthought. Here is what we do differently.
Both returns, one accountant
The SA800 and each partner’s individual Self Assessment are handled together, by the same person. That means the figures reconcile properly, supplementary pages are completed correctly, and no one is waiting on another firm to share numbers before they can finish their own return.
Tax bills known months early
Partners should know what they owe HMRC long before the January payment deadline — not the week before. We calculate each partner’s liability as part of the year-end process, so there is time to plan and no awkward surprises between partners about who owes what.
Plain answers, same day
Partnership questions — how to split a profit, whether a change in the sharing ratio triggers a tax event, what happens when a partner joins or leaves — get a plain-English answer the day you ask. No waiting a week for a response that requires a follow-up to understand.
Up and running in four straightforward steps.
Switching accountants or setting up for the first time is less work than most people expect. Here is what the process actually looks like.
Get in touch, free of charge
Call 0161 706 1523, email info@edwardharris.co.uk, or use the contact form and we will reply the same day. The initial conversation is free and without any obligation. You can ask as many questions as you like.
We review your current position
We look at what has been filed, what is outstanding, and how the partnership is currently structured. If there are gaps or late filings, we will tell you what catch-up looks like and what it costs — no vague estimates.
We take over the paperwork
Once you are onboarded, we handle the SA800, each partner’s Self Assessment, and any bookkeeping included in your package. You provide the records; we do the rest. Most clients find the handover takes one short call and a few documents.
Partners know where they stand
Year-round, each partner knows their expected tax position. The returns are filed on time. Profit allocations are reviewed before they become a problem. Which is, frankly, the way it should have been all along.
“Hasan has been amazing and extremely helpful he has been very patient with me being new to running a business, he had given me some great advice and I will continue to use Edward Harris & Hasan”
Things people usually ask before getting started
Do you handle the SA800 partnership return and each partner’s individual Self Assessment?
Yes. Both are prepared and filed together. The SA800 covers the partnership’s income, expenses, and profit allocation. Each partner then needs an individual SA100 with the relevant partnership pages attached. Handling them together means the figures reconcile correctly and no one is left waiting on another accountant to finish before they can start.
What does partnership accounting cost and what is included?
Pricing is a fixed monthly fee agreed upfront — no hourly rates, no surprise invoices after a busy period. The fee covers the partnership accounts, SA800, and individual Self Assessments for each partner. We will quote based on the number of partners, the size and complexity of the business, and whether bookkeeping is included. Get in touch and we will provide a specific figure.
Our books are behind and the last accountant left things in a mess. Can you still help?
This is a fairly common starting point. We will review what exists, identify what is missing, and give you a clear picture of what catch-up work is needed and what it costs before we begin. There are no hidden fees for tidying things up. Once everything is current, we keep it that way.
Is there a long-term contract we have to commit to?
No. There is no lock-in period. If at any point it is not working, you can leave. You will receive your records, your filed returns, and everything you need to hand over to another accountant cleanly. The aim is to make staying the obvious choice — not to make leaving difficult.
What happens to the accounts if a partner joins, leaves, or the profit-sharing ratio changes mid-year?
Changes to the partnership structure during a tax year do need to be handled carefully — the profit allocation has to reflect the period each arrangement was in place, and HMRC requires the correct supplementary pages. We deal with this as part of the year-end process and will flag the implications before the change is made if you tell us in advance.
Can partners reduce their tax bills through how profit is allocated between them?
The profit-sharing arrangement in a partnership has some flexibility, and it can be worth reviewing whether the current split is still the most tax-efficient given each partner’s other income, allowances, and personal circumstances. We look at this as part of the annual review — not as a separate chargeable exercise. Any changes have to be commercially justifiable and properly documented.
