Atlanta CPA Advises Atlanta Business Owners on Bookkeeping Issues for Small Business Owners
All successful business owners either initially or over time become extremely proficient in their field of choice for it is by this growth of knowledge and wisdom which affords them the insight to make prudent decisions. Each and every hour of a business owner’s day, there are a series of insignificant and important thoughts and directions that directly impact the profitability of a business. Continually you are faced with making a positive impact towards bringing your business closer or further away from your goal. A company’s financial statement is the measuring stick by which you are able to gauge a company’s progress along the business continuum and are able to accurately measure the distance between where you are and where you want to be. Below is a sample letter I might use to help a business owner correct and address their internal financial/bookkeeping to ensure that adequate books and records are maintained:
For your Internal Books and so that I might evaluate your withholding vs. your year end 2009 tax liability.
-Please forward to me your year to date gross wages from all companies.
-Please forward to me the financial statements for all of your business interest where you are the active employee/owner/manager.
-Evaluate if you can set up departmental reporting on QuickBooks.
-I have attached the tentative year end depreciation schedules so that you can use when preparing the year-end statements.
-Please adjust Retained Earnings at year end to $10,000, which agrees to the prior tax return.
-Re-class the loans from you personally as a current liability called Due to Shareholder.
-In making copies of your incorporation papers for you new business venture I noted I suggest that:
-You treat all loans, if you can, from you personally, so that we might be able to deduct any tax loss on your Personal Return. Tax law allows losses only to be deducted to extent you have positive basis/loans to the company.
-Several of the pages of your corporate book/incorporation papers are yet to be completed. I suggest you work with your incorporator to ensure that these are correctly done.
As discussed we will address all of the personal tax issues, after we fix and amend your corporate returns.
