Common Questions

Do you have questions about our bookkeeping services? We’ll answer the most common questions about hiring a professional bookkeeper right here!

What is bookkeeping, and why is it important for my business?

Bookkeeping is the process of recording and organizing all financial transactions for your business. This includes tracking income, expenses, assets, and liabilities. Accurate bookkeeping ensures that you have a clear picture of your business’s financial health, helps with tax preparation, and is essential for making informed business decisions. Without proper bookkeeping, you risk overlooking important financial details that could affect your profitability and growth.

How often should I update my business’s financial records?

It’s best to update your financial records at least once a month. Regular updates help you stay on top of your business’s cash flow, monitor expenses, and ensure you’re prepared for tax time. However, depending on the size and complexity of your business, you may need to update your records more or less frequently. At Lakeside Accounting we offer monthly, quarterly and annual plans to ensure you are getting the best value for your specific business.

Do I need a bookkeeper if I already use accounting software?

While accounting software can automate many tasks, it still requires someone with the proper knowledge to manage and oversee the process. A bookkeeper ensures that your financial records are accurate, organized, and consistent. They also help you make the most of your software by categorizing transactions properly and ensuring compliance with accounting standards and tax laws.

How do I know if my business needs a bookkeeper?

If you’re struggling to keep track of your financial records or spending too much time on paperwork rather than growing your business, it’s a sign you could benefit from a bookkeeper. Let Lakeside Accounting handle your financials, keep things organized, and ensure everything is accurate, giving you more time to focus on running your business.

What are the common bookkeeping mistakes small business owners make?

Some common mistakes include mixing personal and business finances, not keeping receipts or proper records of expenses, forgetting to reconcile accounts regularly, and not tracking cash flow closely. These errors can lead to financial discrepancies and tax issues, so it’s important to stay on top of bookkeeping to avoid them.

How much does bookkeeping cost for a small business?

The cost of bookkeeping varies depending on the size and complexity of your business. Factors such as transaction volume, number of accounts, and the level of service you require can influence the price. Here at Lakeside Accounting, we work with you to find a monthly plan that suits the specific needs of your business, fits within your budget, and scales as you do!
