Preparing tax returns

Hi, I am trying your accounting package and so far I am very pleased at the ease of use, I have tried , Sage, Mamut, Microsoft Accounting and all are aimed at accountants or larger businesses.
I would like to ask some questions, when it comes to submitting accounts for tax purposes, do the reports you include allow me to do that, secondly if I purchase the program is there anything else include as far as functions is concerned , as I know some companies only give you so much functionality in the trial versions.

I will I am sure be purchasing in the new year

Thanks for trying Solar Accounts - we're glad you like it. Solar Accounts produces standard financial reports such as Profit and Loss, Balance Sheet and Trial Balance. If you are self-employed, these are usually sufficient to complete your annual self assessment return. If your business is a limited company, we suggest you use an accountant to submit your annual CT600 form since it often requires specialised knowledge and reports. Solar Accounts also offers a detailed report for producing your VAT return.

The only difference between the trial version and the full version is that data entry in the trial version is limited to 30 days.
