At the risk of answering the question: what?
How can a spreadsheet check your bank balance?
I found the new online form is an improvement over the old CT600.pdf, but it's basically the same thing with the same fields. If you were managing to do the accounts yourself before you must have been able to add things up. Personally I use a piece of paper.

CATO requirements for micro-entities - free spreadsheets?
Hi
I've always done my own accounts. After years of struggling with the appalling PDF I got some software a few years back that did it for my, filed the iXBRL etc.
Apart from the dreaded CT600, doing your own accounts isn't hard, well it wasn't - now the fantastically simple FRS is going there's be a VAT return which will no doubt be horrible. I always said, whoever designed the FRS return can't have lasted long at HMRC, it was so easy and simple it was untrue.
Now the govt has thankfully got rid of the dreaded executable PDF, and the old software I used to use (TaxCalc) is no use any more.
I file micro-entity accounts.
Is there a free spreadsheet anywhere out there that lets me input turnover etc. and tells me what to enter into what box on the new CATO online submission? One that checks what I've got in bank balances etc year on year so I know whether or not to include paid up share capital.
Much as it's better than the old PDF it still isn't clear, but where do I include expenses etc. isn't that clear to me. Plus all the guff about prior year paid up share capital etc always has me pulling my hair out - is it included in my bank account balance or not etc. etc.
Thanks!
