A sole trader operates their business as a self-employed person and is solely responsible for the success of it...being a sole trader refers to the structure of the business, whereas self-employed refers to how you pay your taxes – typically just a tax return only and no need for annual accounts. (If you are self-employed and do not require accounts see our self-employed section).
A sole trader will typically have a business bank account, have assets, will require year-end annual accounts, may be VAT registered, will tend to have a lot of business transactions and may require business advise during a trading year.
Being a sole trader can be a very lonely place so knowing someone has got your back when it comes to helping with the finance function of your business is of paramount importance. You do not have to produce a set of annual accounts... it is not a legal requirement. You only need to keep records of the invoices you have raised, the expenses that you have incurred and what your profit was but a set of accounts will help you understand in more details where you have been spending your money and accounts would definitely be needed if you have assets or liabilities that need to be recorded...and as Making Tax Digital (MTD) is not far away for the small business what better way of doing this than using our MTD compliant Cloud Accounting software.
