Business Investment Idea

Hi, I set up a Limited company 6 months ago and have built up some funds that I would like to purchase some assets for the company. My idea was to use the funds to buy shares in some FTSE100 companies, I have zero experience of doing such thing before within a limited company. I have done share trading personally. Am I correct in assuming its as straight forward as setting up a trading account with a broker and trade in the same way as personal trading then hand all contract notes to accountant? I guess this will incure some additional accountancy costs? I would really appreciate some advice or guidance as to how this works and maybe any additional costs involved that I have not thought of. Thanks a lot!
