Taxation points out some YouGov research on time wasted time by accountants looking for missing files.
It reckons that 83% of the UK’s 270,000 chartered accountants (that’s 224,100 of you) chuck away up to one hour every day looking for misfiled and mislaid paperwork, at an average cost of £88 in lost fees.
An hour a day seems pretty excessive, although every now and again a concerted effort is needed to find some paperwork. Usually however, it is in a partners car…
Roll on the paperless office.
