Specifically for furniture makers
What we pay extra attention to for furniture makers.
Deposits and instalments
We invoice deposits correctly, so the VAT is declared at the right time and your final invoice reconciles.
Work in progress and stock
We value timber, sheet materials and half-finished commissions in your annual accounts, so your profit is right.
Workshop machinery
Saws, planers and CNC machines are big investments that count towards the investment allowance.
Costs we often see for furniture makers.
Business expenses reduce your profit and therefore your tax. We make sure they are booked correctly and, where possible, that you make use of the investment deduction (investeringsaftrek).

FAQ
Frequently asked questions from furniture makers
When do I pay VAT on a deposit?+

How do I value my timber stock?+
We normally value stock at purchase price. In the annual accounts, we also include work in progress.

Yes. We arrange the handover with your current accountant, including history, opening balance and ongoing tax returns.
