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 is a great tool for managing your business finances, but it still demands significant time and effort. By working with a small business accountant, you can reduce stress and focus on other essential aspects of running 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?
Choosing the right accountant requires careful consideration. You should think about the accountant's location, the division of workload, and the type of accounting software you will use. Make sure to choose a certified or chartered accountant and look for one with expertise relevant to your business. Your business and social networks may also be helpful in suggesting the right firm or accountant.
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.
