According to statistics, only one company in ten is successful in business. The rest sooner or later stop making profit. To protect yourself from life-long delivery of "zero" balances, you need to liquidate the company.
Instructions
Step 1
To liquidate the company, notify the authorized government agency about the beginning of the liquidation process. Today, the Federal Tax Service acts as such a body, which makes entries in the Unified State Register of Legal Entities on the registration, reorganization and liquidation of firms. To notify the tax office, fill out the form No. Р15001.
Step 2
Appoint a liquidator (liquidation commission). Also inform the auditors about this action by filling out the form No. Р15002. From the moment the liquidator is appointed, all powers to manage the company's activities are transferred to him.
Step 3
Make sure that the liquidator publishes information about the liquidation in the journal, which is designed to record data on the registration of legal entities. Also, check that the announcement contains not only the fact of closing the company, but also the time frame during which creditors can present their claims (the end of the term should not be set earlier than two months after publication).
Step 4
Take an inventory of the company's liabilities and assets. Make sure that during this process the liquidator identifies all creditors of the firm and sends them a written notice that the organization will soon close. Also, take care of the interests of the owners: the liquidator must strive with all his might to collect the receivables.
Step 5
When the period during which the creditors had the opportunity to present their claims has expired, draw up an interim liquidation balance sheet, which will contain information about the claims presented by the lenders with the results of their consideration, as well as data on the composition of the company's property. Fill out Form No. Р15003 and submit it to the tax office along with the interim liquidation balance sheet.
Step 6
Pay off your debts. If the property of the company is not enough to pay off all the debts of the property of the company, then pay in this order: first to the citizens, for causing harm to the life and health of which the company bears, then pay severance pay and debts to employees, then pay the debt to the budget, and only after that pay the money the remaining creditors.
Step 7
Draw up a liquidation balance sheet and submit it to the tax office along with an application in form No. P16001 and a receipt for payment of state duty. Make sure that the FTS makes a record of the liquidation of the company in the Unified State Register of Legal Entities.
