Accountant's letter - please advise

[Spirea28]

Hi,

My accountant has written me a very simple letter to fulfill the requirement for the letter from accountant, I would appreciate very much if you can advise if this letter is fine?

"We confirm that we act as professional advisors to the above.

Her gross earnings before expenses for the year from 01/08/2008 to 31/07/2009 £xxxx.

Her net profit after expenses for the year from 01/08/2008 to 31/07/2009 totals £xxxx."

Under the guidance notes, it says that the letter should include "a breakdown of salary" Since I am self employed I don't have a salary (this is where I am confused about) - should I ask my accountant to include a list of income earned like this:

14-Apr-08 xxxx.00
30-Jun-08 xxxx.00
22-Aug-08 xxxx.00
01-Jan-09 xxxx.00

Will this fullfill the requirement?

Much thanks for your advice!

Its better to provide draft accounts of the business along with the letter. Your accountant will prepare the draft accounts of the business and will certify them.

By certify them, do you mean my accountant has to put a company stamp on the letter, besides having the letter on his company's letter head paper?
