BOOKKEEPING
The team at Barnett & Turner have many years experience in the design, development and implementation of bespoke bookkeeping systems for a wide range of businesses.
At Barnett & Turner we appreciate and respect that our clients have a flair for the environment in which their businesses operate. We understand that to many people bookkeeping is a task that is not enjoyed and it gets in the way of running the business.
It is however important to remember that your records and accounts represent a score sheet that tells you how you are progressing and acts as an early warning system when things are amiss.
The accounts and underlying records will provide the basis for securing finance, obtaining credit terms from suppliers and meeting the requirements of regulatory bodies such as HM Revenue & Customs.
One of the greatest mistakes made by business owners is to not keep good financial records and make improper or poor business decisions based on inadequate information
At Barnett & Turner we do not want this to happen to our clients. Quality financial information does not necessarily mean complicated bookkeeping or accounting systems. Far too often owners of businesses become overwhelmed by their accounting system to the point where it becomes of no use to them. Your bookkeeping and accounting system is like any tool used in your business, it needs to be sophisticated enough to provide the information that you need to run the business yet simple enough for you to operate it.
Whether your circumstances call for a standard solution or a bespoke system we can advise and assist you in the implementation and development of manual accounting systems, spreadsheet based alternatives or the implementation of one of the many accounting software packages that are now available.
As well as developing your bookkeeping systems our friendly and experienced team can provide you and your staff with training tailored to meet your business needs and are only a phone call away to offer assistance and advice.
As your business grows we can help you to develop your accounting systems to incorporate good bookkeeping practices and controls, to produce budgets and periodic management accounting information and to enable you to complete statistical and VAT returns.
We appreciate that for some clients the burden of maintaining the business bookkeeping systems is too much and for such clients we also offer an in-house bookkeeping service. With this service we will either visit your business premises or accounting information can be sent in to us so that we can maintain your accounting records for you
We recognise that due to staff absences and changes the accounting function can be placed under huge pressure at such times. At Barnett & Turner we are also able to provide bookkeeping assistance to cover for such absences and changes.
