Business On Par

Book-Keeping

As accounting practitioners, we regularly provide both manual and computerised book-keeping services, to businesses of every size. Book-keeping can be completed at client premises or fully outsourced from our own offices.

If you are already computerised, our knowledge of Sage enables us to provide a complete service using your own existing software package.

The precise book-keeping services provided will depend upon your own specific requirements, but would typically include:

  • Maintaining accurate and complete Nominal, Sales and Purchase Ledgers
  • Reconciling your bank accounts
  • Preparing VAT returns
  • Providing you with the reports that you require to run the business, which will typically include Aged Debtors Listings, Aged Creditors Listings and Management Accounts.
As well as ongoing book-keeping services, we can also provide short term assistance, either to cover absences in your own staffing, or whilst the business is too small to justify employing full time accounting staff.

Book-keeping can be a time consuming task and it can also be technically difficult on some computerised systems. Often there is not enough volume to justify engaging a full time in-house employee. Therefore, by engaging us to provide this service, it means that you can really focus on other productive parts of your business. Outsourcing this segment of your business should also introduce efficiencies which could keep accountancy fees down for any statutory year end work.
