Frequently Asked Questions
What is the typical cost of business accounting?
The cost of business accounting services can differ based on factors like the complexity of your financial needs, the size of your business, and the particular services you need. Consulting directly with an accounting firm like ours is the best way to discuss your business needs and receive a customised quote for the services you require.
What steps do I need to take to switch accountants?
To switch accountants, these steps are recommended:
- Inform your current accountant of your decision and request necessary documents or information.
- Research and identify a new accountant who meets your business needs.
- Give your new accountant the needed details and authorise them to liaise with your previous accountant for a smooth transition.
- Ensure that all necessary financial records and documents are transferred securely.
- Communicate any specific requirements or expectations to your new accountant to ensure a seamless transition and continuous service.
Why do small businesses, sole traders, or start-ups need a business accountant?
Handling accounts as a small business owner can quickly become detailed and overwhelming. An experienced small business accountant can support you in managing your business' finances and assist you in reaching your financial goals.
What factors should I look at when selecting an accountant for my business?
Choosing the appropriate accountant requires careful thought. You should consider the accountant's location, how the workload will be divided, and the type of accounting software you'll utilise. Make sure to select a certified or chartered accountant with relevant expertise for your business. Your business and social networks can offer valuable suggestions for the right firm or accountant.
How do I decide whether to hire an accountant or a bookkeeper?
Bookkeepers can help manage your payroll, maintain daily records, issue and follow up on invoices, and record and reconcile transactions. If you need help with daily transactions or several times a month, bookkeeping services are essential. On the other hand, if you need a variety of business accounting services and advice, an accountant could be the better choice.
