Frequently Asked Questions

What does a bookkeeper do vs an accountant?

A bookkeeper is your day-to-day partner, right there in the financial trenches, recording every transaction and giving you a clear picture of your business’s finances. They’re always ready to chat when you need them. An accountant, on the other hand, typically checks in once a year to handle your tax return, or maybe twice a year for tax planning. They’re not as available as your bookkeeper, but their expertise comes in when you need the big-picture stuff.

What are the bookkeeping requirements for small businesses?

All businesses must keep accurate financial records for at least 5 years. You can do this as simply as paper and pen, or an excel spreadsheet, however this is time consuming, especially as your business grows. It is much easier to do this using accounting software such as Xero, which is what we use here at The Good Books.
