If you watched Wednesday's Budget and came away thinking “Right… was that it?”, you probably weren’t alone! 😅

It might not have been the blockbuster Budget some were expecting, but there were still a few announcements worth paying attention to, particularly for small businesses and trades.

🚐 Business mileage

If you use your own car or van for work, the 55p-per-mile tax-free mileage rate for the first 10,000 business miles is being made permanent.

And from 6 April 2027, the rate after 10,000 miles will rise from 25p to 35p per mile.

⛽ Fuel duty

The temporary 5p-per-litre cut has been extended, with the planned increase pushed back until 1 July 2027.

💷 Minimum wage

From 1 April 2027, the National Living Wage for workers aged 21 and over will rise to £13.21 an hour.

If you employ staff, that’s one to factor into payroll and your staffing costs for next year.

There was also an increase in the Trading Allowance from £1,000 to £3,000 from April 2027, aimed particularly at people with smaller amounts of trading income.

So, perhaps not the most action-packed Budget we've ever seen, but those are some of the announcements we think are worth keeping on your radar.

And, as always with tax changes, the devil is in the details, so check how the rules apply to your own circumstances before changing anything.

Everyone has one, whether it's...

💥 The mileage you swear you're definitely going to update tomorrow
💥 The expenses you keep meaning to log
💥 The VAT job you’ve strategically avoided looking at
💥 The payroll change someone mentioned while you were halfway out the door
💥 That invoice you’ve typed out three times and somehow still haven’t sent.

Saturday is Halloween, so we want to know:

🎃 What business admin task haunts YOU? 👻

Should any of those jobs happen to involve bookkeeping, payroll, VAT or keeping your financial records under control… who're you gonna call? 😉

Starting your first business comes with a lot of 'firsts'...

🥇 Your first invoice.
🥇 Your first set of accounts.
🥇 Your first “hang on… what does HMRC need from me?” moment 😅

There’s a lot to learn while you’re also trying to actually run the business, and that's why feedback like Nicola’s means so much to the whole Marvel team ❤️

Good bookkeeping support shouldn’t leave you feeling more confused than when you started. It should give you people you can ask, answers you can understand, and confidence that the financial side of the business is being looked after properly.

Thank you for such a lovely review, Nicola, and for trusting the team to be part of your business journey!

By the time your team is expecting money in the bank, whoever runs your payroll needs to know what actually happened that pay period.

❓Did anybody work overtime?
❓Has anyone started or left?
❓Were there changes to pay?
❓Any holiday, sickness or other leave to account for?

Because the phrase “Oh, I forgot to mention…” is not what anybody wants to hear once payroll has already been processed 😬

Employers normally have to report employees’ pay and deductions to HMRC through a Full Payment Submission on or before payday, so getting the right information across in good time is really important.

Marvel runs both weekly and monthly payroll for businesses that would rather take the whole job off of their to-do list.

You send us what we need, we handle the numbers, submissions and payslips, your team gets paid. Which is exactly how uneventful payroll should be 😊

You could be closer to the VAT registration threshold than you think, and it’s not something you should only check once a year. As a business owner, the responsibility of monitoring this lies with you...

The current compulsory VAT registration threshold is more than £90,000 of taxable turnover.

But here’s the bit that always catches people out: it’s based on a rolling 12-month period.

❌ Not your tax year
❌ Not your financial year
❌ Not January to December

That means if your business is growing, you need to keep an eye on your taxable turnover as the year moves along.

There’s also a separate rule if you expect your taxable turnover to go over £90,000 in the next 30 days.

So if you’re suddenly landing bigger contracts or having a particularly strong run of work, it’s worth checking where you stand now rather than waiting until year end.

Up-to-date bookkeeping makes that considerably easier.

And once you are VAT registered, Marvel can help keep your records in order and take care of your VAT returns too.

Vision is back 👀

And so is Ultron.

Marvel Television’s VisionQuest lands on Disney+ today, with Paul Bettany returning as Vision and James Spader reprising his role as Ultron.

It also brings the trilogy that started with WandaVision and continued with Agatha All Along to its conclusion.

Which means there are probably two types of people at Marvel HQ today:

Those preparing to analyse every single frame, theory and MCU connection…

…and those wondering how long it’ll be before Kate manages to turn the whole thing into a bookkeeping analogy.

Anyone else watching?

Your bookkeeper gets to know a surprisingly large amount about your business...

🔍 Who pays on time
🔍 When the busy months hit
🔍 Where the money goes
🔍 What keeps cropping up
🔍 And occasionally, what that mysterious £47.83 payment at Greggs was actually for.

So good bookkeeping service has to be about a lot more than just getting the numbers right. It’s about replying when you say you will, spotting something that doesn’t look quite right, explaining things clearly (rather than chucking a load of jargon at people), and it's about understanding how a client’s business actually works, instead of trying to squeeze everybody into the same process.

It’s National Customer Service Week, and today’s theme is all about building a service culture that improves productivity.

We think that one's really important, because while good systems of course matter, the people behind them matter just as much 🦸🏻‍♀️

New to Self Assessment? Today’s a date worth checking... 📅

If you need to complete a Self Assessment tax return for 2025/26 and you’ve either never sent one before, or you were registered previously but didn’t need to send one last year, HMRC says you need to tell them by 5 October.

In other words… today.

This isn’t the deadline for actually submitting your online return (that comes later) but it is the deadline for letting HMRC know you need to complete one.

Not sure whether Self Assessment applies to you? HMRC has an online checker that can help.

And if it’s the records behind the return that are causing the headache, that’s where keeping your bookkeeping current really makes the difference.

It really is much easier to deal with tax when you’re not trying to reconstruct a year’s worth of business activity from memory.

An overdue invoice gets more awkward the longer it sits.

You’ve done the work, sent the invoice, and you've waited patiently.

Now you need to chase it, but there is another job to finish, the phone is ringing, and you really do not fancy having that conversation.

Marvel’s Credit Control service handles those follow-ups professionally and consistently.

It means overdue invoices do not quietly disappear down the list while you get on with running the business. Customers receive clear reminders, conversations are recorded, and you have a much better view of what is still owed.

Firm does not have to mean rude. It means making sure the work you have completed is actually paid for.

If invoice chasing is eating into your time or cash flow, Marvel can take it off your hands.

A Xero bank feed full of green ticks is very satisfying.

It does not always mean the bookkeeping is finished.

Good bookkeeping also involves checking whether transactions have been put in the right place, invoices match the payments received, and any missing paperwork has been found.

🧾 There may be duplicate entries, personal purchases to separate or overdue invoices that need attention.

🧾 Then there are the jobs linked to those records, including VAT, payroll and CIS.

Reconciliation is important, but it is one part of a much bigger picture.

The aim is to have records you can actually rely on when you want to understand how the business is doing.

Green ticks are lovely. Accurate numbers are better.
