Director's Report
The director presents his report and the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2024.
Principal Activity
The company's principal activity continues to be that of providing accounting, auditing, and tax advisory services. The company also offers complimentary products and services to clients including various accounting software solutions and insurance services to protect clients in the event of a tax enquiry.
Review of the Business
Overview
The company achieved turnover of £924,626 in 2024, an increase of 7.96% compared to 2023 (£856,454). This growth was driven by a rise in demand for our core services, including accounting and tax advisory services, as well as a notable increase in software services, which contributed £77,645 to the turnover (2023: £55,194).
The gross profit margin increased slightly from 50.47% in 2023 to 50.95% in 2024, reflecting tighter cost control and improved operational efficiencies. Administrative expenses decreased by 3.33%, contributing to the strong operating profit.
Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)
  • Turnover Growth: 7.96% (2023: 10.9%)
  • Operating Profit Margin: 17.10% (2023: 12.47%)
  • Net Asset Growth: £104,786 in 2024 from £42,821 in 2023
  • Dividend Payout Ratio: 44.66% of net profit (2023: 58.48%)
Principal Risks and Uncertainties
The company faces several risks, including:
  1. Regulatory Changes: Changes in tax laws or financial regulations could impact our advisory services. We mitigate this by staying updated and adjusting services accordingly.
  2. Economic Downturn: A slowdown in the economy could affect clients' demand for accounting and tax services. To manage this, we have diversified our service offerings and focused on long-term client relationships.
  3. Technology Risks: As we continue to grow our software services, there is an inherent risk related to IT security and data privacy. We address this by investing in robust cybersecurity measures and regularly reviewing compliance with data protection laws.
Future Outlook
The outlook for 2025 and 2026 remain positive. We anticipate steady growth in demand for accounting services, particularly from SMEs, especially in light of the MTD reforms and the additional compliance burden these will place on small businesses. The continued growth in our client numbers supports us in our growth targets.
Employee Engagement and Development
The company places high importance on the development of its employees. In 2024 and 2025, we have continued to invest in our apprentices whom are all on approved professional training programmes whilst also ensuring our experienced staff remain up to date with CPD programmes focussed on new tax regulations and software, allowing them to remain at the cutting edge of industry knowledge.
Environmental and Social Responsibility
MJH Accountants are committed to making a positive impact not only in the financial services we provide but also in the communities we serve. We recognise that our role extends beyond accounting, and we actively contribute to environmental sustainability and social responsibility through meaningful initiatives.
Supporting Education and Careers
One of our core social initiatives is supporting the next generation of professionals. We work closely with schools and colleges' careers departments, offering students opportunities to explore the world of accounting and finance. By partnering with local educational institutions, we provide structured work experience programs designed to inspire and educate young minds about the profession.
In 2025, we have welcomed 8 students for work placements, offering hands-on experience in various aspects of accounting and business operations. This initiative aims to demystify the profession, spark interest in accounting careers, and equip students with practical skills that are invaluable as they enter the workforce.

Review of the Business - continued
Community Engagement and Charity Work
We believe in giving back to the community and are proud of our charitable work. Our team selects a charity to support in 2 year blocks, and we are dedicated to raising funds through a range of events. In 2023-24, we raised over £12,500 for MND Lancashire and have selected the Brain Tumour Charity to benefit from our work in 2025 and 2026 and will continue to raise money for this worthy cause through a series of activities, including our headline event which is the MJH Charity Ball.
By involving staff, clients, and local communities in these events, we aim to make a significant difference in the lives of those in need. Our goal for 2026 is to expand our charitable reach, aiming to raise even more for future causes.
Environmental Responsibility
While our core operations have a limited environmental footprint, we are committed to minimising our impact wherever possible as we make further progress in reducing our carbon footprint, by limiting our use of paper and encouraging the team to minimise the use of energy.
Conclusion
Our commitment to social responsibility is deeply ingrained in our company culture. Whether it’s inspiring future accountants through educational partnerships, raising significant funds for worthy causes, or implementing environmentally responsible practices, MJH Accountants aims to make a meaningful difference. We look forward to expanding these initiatives in the coming years and continuing to support the communities and environments in which we operate.
Future Developments
MJH Accountants Limited is well-positioned for future growth, with strong financial performance and a clear strategy for expansion in both traditional services and new areas like software solutions. We will continue to focus on delivering value to our clients and shareholders while managing risks effectively.
The company plans to expand by greater cross-selling of services to existing clients in addition to attracting new clients from its various marketing streams including online sources and from existing client / partner referrals.
Particularly, we will be looking to broaden our audit and assurance offering as the established players in this sector look to divest themselves of smaller clients and concentrate on larger businesses. 
We will also look to enhance our use of technology along with that of our clients as we move towards MTD in April 2026.
Employee retention has been a challenge across the professional services sector since COVID, however, at MJH, we have met this challenge ‘head-on’ as we have continued to grow our team through the recruitment of enthusiastic apprentices whom we plan to nurture into the ‘MJH managers of the future’ whilst also harnessing the opportunities created by an increasingly mobile workforce as we are work more closely with our accounting partners across the globe.
Dividends
The profit after taxation for the year amounted to £111,965 (2023: £77,820). During the year, dividends amounting to £50,000 were paid (2023: £45,500).

Statement of Director's Responsibilities
The director is responsible for preparing the Director's Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.
Company law requires the director to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the director has elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). Under company law the director must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company and of the profit or loss of the company for that period. In preparing the financial statements the director is required to: 
  • select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
  • make judgments and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
  • prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business.
The director is responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. He is also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
The director is responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the company's website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.
Small Company Rules

Notes to the Financial Statements
1. General Information
MJH Accountants Limited is a private company, limited by shares, incorporated in England & Wales, registered number 07967944 . The registered office is 129 Woodplumpton Road, Fulwood, Preston, Lancashire, PR2 3LF.
2. Accounting Policies
2.1. Basis of Preparation of Financial Statements
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 section 1A Small Entities "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" and the Companies Act 2006.
2.2. Going Concern Disclosure
The Director has a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue its operational existence for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.
2.3. Turnover
Turnover represents amounts (excluding value added tax) derived from the provision of accountancy, taxation and business advisory services to clients.
Revenue is recognised when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the company and the amount can be measured reliably.
Recurring compliance services (such as accounts preparation, payroll and tax returns) are generally invoiced monthly. Fees received are initially recorded as deferred income and released to turnover in line with the stage of completion of the related services. Deferred income therefore represents amounts billed in advance for which services had not been performed at the balance sheet date.
Non-recurring or advisory services are generally invoiced on completion and recognised as turnover at that point, or by reference to the stage of completion where this can be assessed reliably.
2.4. Intangible Fixed Assets and Amortisation - Goodwill
Goodwill is the difference between amounts paid on the acquisition of a business and the fair value of the separable net assets. It is amortised to profit and loss account over its estimated economic life;
       Goodwill                                                      10% on cost
2.5. Tangible Fixed Assets and Depreciation
Tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost of the fixed assets, less their estimated residual value, over their expected useful lives on the following bases;
Leasehold 10% on cost
Plant & Machinery 25% on written down value
Fixtures & Fittings 20% on written down value
Computer Equipment 33.3% on cost
2.6. Stocks and Work in Progress
Stocks and work in progress are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value after making due allowance for obsolete and slow-moving stocks. Cost includes all direct costs and an appropriate proportion of fixed and variable overheads. Work-in-progress is reflected in the accounts on a contract by contract basis by recording turnover and related costs as contract activity progresses.
2.7. Foreign Currencies
Monetary assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rate ruling on the date of the transaction. Exchange differences are taken into account in arriving at the operating profit.
Page 10
Page 11
2.8. Taxation
Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.
The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from profit as reported in the statement of comprehensive income because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or deductible. The company's liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
Deferred tax is recognised on timing differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable timing differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible timing differences can be utilised. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset realised, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. Deferred tax liabilities are presented within provisions for liabilities and deferred tax assets within debtors. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflect the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Company expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.
Current and deferred tax are recognised in profit or loss for the year, except when they relate to items that are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case current and deferred tax are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.
2.9. Pensions
The company operates a defined pension contribution scheme. Contributions are charged to the profit and loss account as they become payable in accordance with the rules of the scheme.
3. Operating Profit
The operating profit is stated after charging:
2024 2023
