Do you want to know how to stop wasting your money on taxes, save your profits and have a clear daily view of the financial statement of your business?

The success of a business is determined by several factors, of which bookkeeping and accounting is a very important one. Success in business is not determined by how many sales you made or the profit you generated but by how you kept track of your transactions. The question is, how will you realize the profits generated and the sales you made if you do not keep records of your transactions?

It is only when you keep up-to-date financial records of your transactions that you can determine the performance of your business. A business is operated to generate profit, but this goal can be hindered if one fails to maintain an effective bookkeeping and accounting system.

The art of bookkeeping is an essential aspect of a business. Some small businesses failed - not because they did not make sales, or they failed to produce good products - but they failed to maintain an effective bookkeeping and accounting system.

Here are some of the very important reasons for bookkeeping:

- Bookkeeping provides a true and accurate picture of the business. To know how your business is performing, whether you are making gains or losses, growing or dwindling, the only way you can know these is if you keep accurate records.

- There is the issue of taxes; you have to be able to know just how much taxes you need to pay at the end of every year.

- It helps you easily forecast and create plans for your business. By looking at your bookkeeping records, you can easily say, "We always sell 500 units of X product every December, so this year, we should work on increasing our sales to XX units."

-

- Through bookkeeping, you can also easily figure out thefts, dishonesty, or poor performances if you have employees or people running your business for you.

Another benefit you can derive from adequate business bookkeeping is that you can use your financial statements as proofs of business performance if you need to secure loans for your business.

- Bookkeeping shall also help you monitor your business expenses in relation to income.
