Meaningful annual financial statements and company tax returns
Annual financial statements often serve as the basis for decisions by investors.
Your contact
This is why we prepare high-quality, informative and transparent annual financial statements and tax returns for you in accordance with the principles of commercial law and the provisions of the articles of association, including the corresponding preparation reports.
A detailed annual report documents the company's internal and external accounting. Depending on the overall situation, we can also provide your annual financial statements with a qualified annual financial statement certificate. In conjunction with a rating, this certificate can lead to significantly more favourable financing conditions for investors.
Company tax returns
An elementary factor of entrepreneurial risk management is to fulfil the legal obligations in the tax area. We determine taxable income and prepare company tax returns.
We regard tax advice as a comprehensive process in which, in addition to preparing annual financial statements and tax returns, we also review tax assessments, deal with appeals and applications and, if necessary, represent you before the fiscal courts.
Our services in the area of annual financial statements / company tax returns
Preparation of annual financial statements and consulting
In addition to the mandatory preparation of annual financial statements in accordance with the German Commercial Code, annual financial statements can also be prepared voluntarily for various information purposes. In addition to forming the basis for tax returns, they are also an important source of information for investors, suppliers, customers and shareholders, for example.
The annual financial statements are prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Institut für Wirtschaftsprüfer in Deutschland e.V. (IDW). We support you with individual analyses, commercial law, balance sheet and other advice from our experts for business decisions and planning.
Reporting on the annual financial statements
Basic reporting is carried out using a standardised procedure and contains the mandatory components arising from the German Commercial Code.
We also customise the reports according to your individual requirements and information needs. Our experts are also on hand to assist you with the preparation of management reports or other required reports.
Disclosure/ deposit
We handle the disclosure or filing of annual financial statements in the electronic company register for you. We provide comprehensive advice on all disclosure issues.
Digital financial report
The Digital Financial Report (DiFin) is a standardised, uniform nationwide transmission procedure for the digital submission of annual financial statements to banks. We create and transmit the report based on your annual financial statement data. This avoids media disruptions and efficiently provides the data required for processing a loan application, for example.
Preparation of income and surplus accounts (EÜR)
If you are not obliged under commercial law to "keep books" as a small business or freelancer, your profit is determined by preparing a revenue surplus statement. This is the basis for the taxable income from this activity. We prepare these statements and also advise you on business planning.
Company tax returns and e-balance sheet
The submission of the company declaration is the conclusion of a comprehensive advisory process which, in addition to the completion of administrative tasks, also includes the application of the applicable regulations. We use our experience and tax expertise to advise you on solutions, strategies and structuring options.
We prepare the annually recurring company tax returns for you (regularly corporate, trade and VAT returns as well as so-called declarations of assessment). We also prepare your tax balance sheet, which is sent to the tax office as an electronic balance sheet (e-balance sheet) with the annual tax returns.
Legal remedies and representation vis-à-vis tax authorities
The review of tax assessments includes the preparation of tax returns and is just as much a part of our work as the support during tax audits and representation in extrajudicial and judicial appeal proceedings and all other matters before the tax authorities.
