UK Businesses Paying as High as £25 to Process Purchase Invoices; IBN Technologies Offers Cost-effective Accounts Payable Solution

Pune, India, August 9, 2023 - As cost concerns continue to grip UK businesses, the formidable financial impact of processing purchase invoices has taken center stage. A recent survey has revealed a startling reality: UK companies are grappling with invoice processing expenses soaring to a staggering £25 per invoice. Addressing this financial challenge IBN Technologies presents a solution, offering a streamlined and cost-effective accounts payable solution.

According to this survey, the cost associated with processing purchase invoices varies significantly, ranging from £4 to a staggering £25 per invoice. This revelation has placed a spotlight on the financial strains that businesses, both large and small, are experiencing due to the intricacies and expenses tied to invoice processing.

Furthermore, recent scrutiny of public sector expenditures uncovers a troubling trend. An overwhelming 92% of local authorities have exceeded the established £1 target for invoice processing costs. This highlights the shared struggle of businesses and public entities in managing invoicing expenses.

For medium-sized companies, these costs can be particularly impactful. Consider a scenario of processing 10,000 invoices monthly, resulting in an annual tally of £480,000 in accounts payable processing expenses. Such financial commitments can substantially impact profits, diverting resources from more strategic avenues.

"Businesses often underestimate the hidden costs of invoice processing. Even the seemingly small expenses can quickly add up, significantly impacting the overall bottom line," said CEO Ajay Mehta, IBN Technologies.

One of the factors contributing to the heightened costs of invoice processing is the intricate landscape of Value Added Tax (VAT) regulations. The multifaceted nature of VAT requirements often gives rise to errors, leading to delayed processing and an overall escalation in expenses. Precise calculations for input and output VAT, along with VAT reconciliation and adherence to reporting deadlines, present substantial challenges that directly affect a business's accounts payable processes.

The importance of complying with VAT regulations, as mandated by HMRC, highlights the critical need for accurate and prompt reporting. Breaches of these stipulations result in penalties that further intensify the financial strain. Various sectors such as real estate, food and beverages, retail and others, encounter unique VAT complexities within their accounts payable processes.

Within this landscape, IBN Technologies emerges as a valuable partner for UK businesses grappling with soaring invoice processing costs. With a proven track record spanning 24+ years, their Accounts Payable Services presents an opportunity to streamline financial processes and alleviate fiscal pressure.
