New Year Accounting Resolutions for Your Business!
It’s that time of year when everyone seems to be making New Year’s resolutions. They often relate to exercise, diet, and self-improvement.
But what about your business? Take the time to reflect on 2021. Did your company grow? Were you able to track your income and expenditures? Was the amount of your expenditures troubling?
It’s now time to take the opportunity to review your business’ financial health and find ways that you can make improvements this 2022.
We have put together 5 key New Year Accounting resolutions for you to make your business better, more profitable and more rewarding.
1. Go Paperless by Using Cloud-Based Accounting
If you are using traditional methods of desktop accounting software or Excel spreadsheets, it may be time to consider upgrading to a cloud-based system?
Choose an accounting software that will provide all the basic functions you need. Two of the most popular on the market right now are MYOB and Xero. They streamline the process by providing data feeds from your bank, ability to capture your receipts, invoicing and payroll.
With a cloud-based system, your accounts can be accessed from anywhere, anytime, and your accountant has access to live data ensuring the numbers are always up to date.
This allows for smooth operations between yourself and your accountant, increasing efficiency and decreasing the chance of the paper trail getting lost throughout the year.
2. Get Good Advice from a Great Accountant
As a business owner, you’re responsible for ensuring your business taxes are filed properly. By seeking professional tax planning advice, you’ll feel confident your business is complying with federal and state tax regulations.
As tax professionals, we can advise you about deductions and credits your business might qualify for as we stay informed regularly about new tax laws and codes that may impact your business.
As well as that, it’s critical to review your business model when required. We can help you get on the right track by reviewing your books, providing tax planning advice, financial forecasting, and helping you with anything related to your business financial activities.
Taking the time to invest in your business with expertise will certainly help towards being the most profitable New Year’s resolution you ever made!
3. Plan for Major Expenses
Set aside money for major expenses like inventory, office supplies, repairs and maintenance. Throughout the year, unexpected expenses are likely inevitable too. By budgeting for your business in the coming years and preparing for unforeseen costs now, you can save a lot of worry about dealing with these expenses in the future.
4. Set Aside Money for Taxes
If you keep track of your financial records properly you can be prepared for year-end taxes. Setting aside a little bit of money each month towards paying your businesses taxes, you won’t have to cutback at the end of the year or get a loan to pay your taxes, you will already be prepared.
5. Keep Personal and Business Finances Separate
Never mix the two up, it will make your accounting much more difficult to handle. It’s a lot easier to keep accurate records if you’re only dealing with one type of account, so stay organized. You will save a lot of time by keeping these accounts separate as well.
