Alles über Company Size & Accounting Framework
📋Überblick+
A company meets a size category — micro, small, or medium — when it satisfies at least 2 of the 3 criteria (turnover, balance sheet total, average employees) for that category, under the Companies Act 2006. This determines whether you can prepare accounts under FRS 105 (micro-entities), FRS 102 Section 1A (small entities, reduced disclosure) or full FRS 102 (medium/large entities), and whether you can file abridged accounts.
💡 Bewährte Vorgehensweisen
- The micro thresholds (turnover £632,000, balance sheet £316,000, 10 employees) are the current in-force figures — a government uplift to these Companies Act thresholds has been announced, so re-check gov.uk before relying on them long-term.
- Meeting the thresholds is a choice, not an obligation — some companies still prepare fuller accounts for lenders or investors.
- Certain company types (public companies, financial institutions, some group companies) can't use the micro or small regimes regardless of size.
🔢 Konkretes Beispiel
£5,000,000 turnover, £2,000,000 balance sheet total, 40 average employees: qualifies as a small company, so FRS 102 Section 1A applies with abridged filing available.
