by My opinion
Setting up a business. This should help to understand the bookkeeping?
n.b. Most business owners would still have troubles processing accounts.
I think “Companies House allow “Microentities to submit a Valance Sheet, or an Income & Expenditure Statement (Profit & Loss Statement every year). Acccurate “Books” are hard to maintain, and it continues years after a limited company goes down.. It can prove expensive. But, a “Dormant company” might be okay, if an “Acid Test” (Liquidity of a firm) is good, and Liquidation is avoidable.? I’m no expert. So, do your own research?
