Full Service Accounting Firm FAQs
Do I need a business accountant for a very small business?
Handling small business accounts on your own can be challenging and time-consuming. With the support of an expert small business accountant, you can confidently manage your finances and receive personalised advice to help you achieve your financial goals.
Do I need a small business accountant if I already have Xero?
Xero is a useful tool when it comes to DIY business accounting, but it still requires a lot of time and effort from you as a small business owner. Investing in a small business accountant can alleviate your stress and allow you to spend more time doing other important tasks.
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?
It might feel like you should do your financial management yourself rather than outsourcing. However, DIY business accounting can mean missing out on tax breaks, falling behind in invoicing, underestimating your tax bill, making mistakes, or not having the right information to help you make informed decisions. Having a business accountant can reduce the extra risks and costs involved in business accounting.
How do I choose the right accountant for my business?
Choosing an accountant is a crucial step for your business. Consider their proximity, how you will split financial tasks, and the accounting software they work with. Look for a certified or chartered accountant with experience in your industry, and don’t hesitate to ask for recommendations from your business and social circles.
How do I know if I need an accountant or a bookkeeper?
Bookkeepers handle essential financial tasks such as payroll, invoice management, transaction recording, and reconciliation. If your business requires frequent assistance with transactions, bookkeeping services could be beneficial. However, if you're looking for strategic financial guidance and a wider range of accounting services, an accountant may be the better option.
