- Managing Your Business Finances
There comes a point in every business where a pen and pencil just doesn't do it anymore for tracking your finances. Some businesses may not need anything fancy for some time and others might need good accounting software immediately. There are two big brands in the world of small business accounting programs. There is QuickBooks and Peachtree.
QuickBooks is probably the most popular program out there. It has a very user friendly interface and is easy to learn. Intuit, the company behind the software, included dozens of training lessons with the software. So even if you cant tell the difference between a debit and a credit, you can learn to use QuickBooks software. - Which Method Of Record Keeping Should I Use
Choosing an accounting method to use is an important decision. Once you choose one you are committed to it and it is difficult to change. You have two methods of accounting to choose from. One is the cash method and the other is the accrual method. It is hard to say which one is best for your particular situation but this article will try to give you some tips to help you choose.
Cash method accounting is good for small business owners. With this method you record information when money has changed hands. So you record your income when you receive payment for goods or services and when you actually pay for bills. This is a simpler method and involves less work. The disadvantage is that it is less accurate as you may have earned money but not received payment yet and you may have incurred bills but not paid them yet. - Dealing With High Fuel Prices
