Accounting best practices
You must Familiar with your financial transactions, Balance Sheet, Profit & Loss, and Cash Flow Statement
Whether you have an accountant or an employee running your in-house business, you must know how to read these essential financial tools. They will update you of your financial situation at any given time. Being financially up to date will help you make resonance business decisions.
- Balance Sheet: this shows the company’s total resources, liabilities and wealth at a particular point in time
- Profit & Loss or Income Statement: shows the revenues coming and operating cost incurred during a specific period
- Cash Flow Statement: shows details of the flow of cash as a result of the company’s operating, savings and financing activities.
Prepare business plan
At the start of your business operation or of the successive operating years, business finance and strategy will help you scheme and guesstimate future operating cost and the amount of income or profits needed to maintain your operations. A well-recognized business budget and marketing plan is a must when looking for outside funding investment.
Select what accounting method you will use?
Accounting technique depends on the nature of your business.
- Cash Basis: It is the purest form of accounting. You must be familiar with and record profits when cash is received. Operating cost is recorded when bills are paid.
- Accrual Method: Profits are recognized and recorded when earned. Operating expense is documented and recorded when enthusiastic or when an invoice is received. Keep in mind, when using this technique, revenues and invoices don’t have to be paid before registering them in your books.
Separate business and individual operating expense
I trust it was Benjamin Franklin, who wrote: “in this world, nothing can be said to be certain, except taxes and death.” When running your business, it can be appealing to announce certain “personal” expenses as a justifiable business expense. I would advise to you to defend against the persuasion for two reasons:
- It distorts the right financial presentation of your activity. A factor that may prevent external investors.
- It is sensible to keep the income authorities on your side. A clean set of accounting books leads to a clean audit and less harass from the tax authorities. So back to Benjamin, while the previous may be delayed by keeping accurate “clean” books thus creating less stress, the latter is, unluckily predictable.
Computerize payments and invoicing
You have to study to take benefit of accounting knowledge. Enrol returning bills on e-Payments and regular consumers in e-Invoicing. This practice avoids past due bills and un-accounted profits.
Recognize and severely implement best practice interior controls
Setting up and implementing internal financial controls at a very early stage of your business will help you attain your financial goals. These internal controls may comprise processes defending revenues from expenditure, errors and fraud; and meeting economic obligations.
