Limited statutory audit pricing in Romanel-sur-Morges: what every SME should know
Swiss accounting law (art. 957 ff. of the Code of Obligations) sets a precise frame, yet day-to-day practice often stays fuzzy. This guide walks through what actually matters for a business based in Romanel-sur-Morges.
Year-end closing: how the mechanics work
The closing is prepared all year long: a monthly bank reconciliation and accruals tracked as you go turn the year-end into a formality, for businesses in Romanel-sur-Morges too.
The timetable is tight: accounts drawn up and approved by the general meeting within six months of the year-end. For limited statutory audit, chasing missing documents from January (bank statements, contracts, insurance settlements) avoids the last-minute sprint and auditor reservations.
A well-structured SME chart of accounts
Concretely, limited statutory audit benefits from three tiers: balance-sheet accounts (classes 1-2) kept spotless for the closing, income accounts (classes 3-6) shaped for steering, and closing accounts (class 9) reserved for year-end entries. Each tier has its rhythm and its owner.
For a business in Romanel-sur-Morges, the Sterchi/Käfer structure also eases benchmarking: banks and fiduciaries reason on those standard classes to situate an SME's limited statutory audit.
Outsource limited statutory audit or keep it in-house?
A good test before choosing: ask the fiduciary HOW it wants to receive the documents. A precise answer (formats, frequency, platform) says more than any brochure — including in Romanel-sur-Morges.
A business in Romanel-sur-Morges can combine the models: internal day-to-day entry, monthly external supervision, closing and taxes with the specialist — limited statutory audit splits very well.
The Swiss legal frame for limited statutory audit
Three documents summarise the health of a Swiss business: the balance sheet (what it owns), the income statement (what it earns) and the notes (what else you should know). All the work of limited statutory audit converges on those three pages, in Romanel-sur-Morges too.
For limited statutory audit, the classic early mistake remains mixing private and business: a dedicated bank account and documented private withdrawals eliminate half the discussions with the tax office.
Romanel-sur-Morges: what changes, what does not
Sole proprietorship, Sàrl or SA in Romanel-sur-Morges: the AHV contact remains the competent compensation office, and taxes follow the scales of the canton Vaud.

Which documents should be prepared for the year-end closing?
Bank and cash statements at the closing date, the inventory of stock and work in progress, final AHV/LPP/accident settlements, contracts signed or amended during the year, invoices straddling two years and the detail of accruals. With an up-to-date document archive, most of it is already there. The list is identical in Romanel-sur-Morges: the CO dictates it, not the commune.
