145) Total turnover shown as £4000 though no invoice 21-22 in my draft account

[Darren_Test]

(posting again as unable to reply to previous post)

I am in the process to complete Annual accounts for my company, to be submitted by Monday!

01 Feb 21 to 31 Jan 22, I didn't had any invoice paid to my account at all, even then my accountant's draft Annual accounts shows 145. Total turnover as £xxxx. How could this be correct..? Any help here please..

These numbers came from accountant, but in the past I had to correct my accountant more than one time. So I prefer to cross check numbers before ..

So in short..
- No invoice paid to me in 01 Feb 21 to 31 Jan 22
- (145) Total Turnover in the account shows £4000 +


145 Total turnover from trade
Enter the total trading turnover from any source. Include any reimbursed discounts from the Eat Out to Help Out Scheme. Financial concerns that do not have a recognised turnover do not need to complete box 145.

Not quite sure I follow. You accountant has entered an invoice into a month where you didn't invoice anything? And now you have £4,000 outstanding that you can't account for?

Not sure how we can help with that. Maybe ask your accountant why there is £4000 sum without an invoice?

Silly question, but what's in your actual bank account?

[WTFH]

In one of the other 2 versions of this thread, I had responded with some questions (you've already answered a couple of them, so I've removed them from my list):

What do your bank statements say for the year?
How much of the story are you not telling us?
You say you've not had any invoices paid, do you mean you've not raised any invoices, or that no money at all has gone into your bank account?
If you don't trust your accountant, why have you not changed them?

I think it is because you have an invoice in that period even though it wasn't paid. It appears in your books when the invoice is raised. You need to speak to your accountant. There may be a possibility to defer into the next accounting year when it was actually paid.

Right, so I should hunt around for other bits of the puzzle. Sorry, didn't realise...

However, if you compare your bank account to your written accounts you ought to be able to see where the error has arisen. But if you can't be bothered to do that very basic piece of accountancy, then you're on your own.

Just bung a load of pound coins in an envelope and push it through HMRC's door. Anything else is going to be far too complicated for you.

you're joking aren't you?

Do HMRC have a car park? What's it like during rush hour?
The endless questions..... going on forever....

@OP - Don't even contemplate this.
