Accounting & Tax Basics
Bookkeeping is the day-to-day recording of financial transactions — sales, expenses, reconciliations. Accounting builds on that record to produce financial statements, analysis and advice. In short, bookkeeping creates the data; accounting interprets it.
At minimum: records of income and expenses, bank statements, invoices issued and received, payroll records if you have employees, and any tax filings and correspondence. A cloud accounting platform makes keeping these organised much easier.
Reconcile accounts regularly rather than in a year-end rush, keep business and personal finances separate, move to a cloud accounting platform if you haven't already, and review your reports monthly rather than only at tax time.
Company secretarial work covers the statutory records, filings and governance administration a registered company is required to maintain — things like statutory registers, resolutions and compliance filings.
