It all depends on the work load you are creating for your accountants! Typically most contractors are paying under £1000 a year.
However, if your contantly calling your accountant to check what can be treated as an allowable expense then they may charge you a more. Do they charge you a fix cost?
Some self employed "one man Ltd" contractors call their accountants to ask if the cost of their dog's food can be treated as a allowable expense!
By the way, I'm not an accountant, just have a lot of friends and associates that are.
I made a similar enquiry on the PCG forum recently as I was paying £850+ VAT and wanted to see if this was a fair price. Have now pretty much halved that cost further.
It helps that I do all my own accounts to TB, payroll, bank reconciliations, and self assessment. This just means the accountant only has to do the final accounts, submit them to CoHo and HMRC, and calculate corp tax.
Let me know if you want details of the accountancy I'm moving over to.
