Audit Update - iXBRL
From 1 April 2011, all companies and organisations will need to file their Company Tax Returns online. This is for accounting periods ending after 31 March 2010. Corporation tax payments will also have to be paid electronically from the same date. The format of what you send to HMRC is changing. How you calculate tax liabilities and how you complete the return itself is not changing.
In addition to this, companies and organisations who prepare financial statements under Companies Act 2006 must file financial statements and computations in a set format known as Inline eXtensible Business Reporting Language (iXBRL). Comparatives however do not need to be changed in to iXBRL format. Attached to the guidance issued are various rules, exemptions and legislation.
For further information on iXBRL, how unw can help you and to make sure you are ready for this forthcoming change please contact Michael Morris (michaelmorris@unw.co.uk) or Andrew Wilson (andrewwilson@unw.co.uk)
