Full Service Accounting Firm FAQs
Do I need a business accountant for a very small business?
Keeping track of your small business finances can become complicated fast. A professional small business accountant can provide the guidance you need to simplify your accounts and offer strategic advice to help you reach your financial goals.
Do I need a small business accountant if I already have Xero?
Xero makes DIY accounting easier, but it doesn’t eliminate the time commitment required. A small business accountant can take the pressure off, giving you more time to focus on running and growing your business.
Do I need a business accountant as a sole trader?
Many business owners see hiring an accountant as a luxury, but the right accounting services can deliver significant benefits. From saving you time and managing tax obligations to identifying cost savings and mitigating risks, an accountant can play a key role in helping your business grow.
Do I need a business accountant as a start-up?
Handling your own financial management may seem like a cost-saving move, but DIY accounting can lead to missed tax opportunities, invoicing delays, tax miscalculations, and costly errors. A business accountant can help you avoid these pitfalls, giving you the confidence to make well-informed financial decisions.
How do I choose the right accountant for my business?
Finding the right accountant takes careful thought. Think about factors such as their location, how the workload will be divided, and which accounting software they use. It’s essential to choose a certified or chartered accountant with expertise that aligns with your business needs. Seeking recommendations from your business and social networks can also help you make the right choice.
How do I know if I need an accountant or a bookkeeper?
A bookkeeper can assist with payroll, maintain daily financial records, manage invoices, and reconcile transactions. If you require frequent support with transactions, whether daily or multiple times a month, bookkeeping services may be the right fit. However, if you need broader financial advice and accounting services, an accountant might be a better choice.
