set of management accounts

Registered Posts: 14 New contributor 🐸
A relative who has recently starting working for themselves is currently trying to open some credit accounts & has been asked a couple of times for latest set of management accounts. They have only been trading nine months.
If I were to try and assist them in preparing a set of management accounts ,what would I need to include?
Do they have to be done in a particular style/layout or will they just need to be on letterheads?
Thanks.

just do the 9 months as if it was 12. Then instead of title 'for the yr to x' put "for the period from x to y"
exactly the same as yr accounts, apart from above! :thumbup1:

I was asked to do this when I had a new company to set up.
The bank just wanted a Balance Sheet of the company.
You could also construct a forecast and a business plan to present to them0 -
Management accounts do not have a statutory format - they can be in any format that management wish.
Management accounts would normally include the normal P&L, balance sheet and any sort of commentary on KPI's, though like I said above it is entirely at the management's discretion.
Banks/lending institutions would normally expect, at least, a P&L and balance sheet and have been known to request cash flow forecasts/profit forecasts.
Best regards
