Get your fiscal year off to a good start with Micro Records!
While most businesses run on a January to December schedule, other businesses choose to use a fiscal year schedule to keep up with the government schedule. The traditional fiscal year begins on July 1st and ends on June 30th. If you are one of the businesses who starts the year on July 1st, you have a few precious hours left to get your business organized for the coming year. So as the fiscal year draws to a close, it is important for your business to get off on the right foot. Let’s take a look at how you can start the new year off right.
Printing Out End-of-Year Statements
As the end of the year gets in full swing, make sure you take the time to print out your profit and loss statements as well as a balance sheet to show what your year looked like. Most accounting softwares can help you generate these reports or it is time to visit your accountant for the information. Your end-of-year statements will be useful for compiling your tax information in the months to come.
Compiling Taxes
Once you have all of your statements printed out, it is time to make depreciation entries in order to compile your taxes. By listing your depreciation, you are decreasing the amount of taxable income you must report on your taxes. Things that can be depreciated include: assets that are wholly owned by the company, that produce income, have a determinable lifespan, and should last more than one year. The next step in this process is to reconcile all of your accounts. Go through all of your credit and bank accounts for the business and reconcile all charges and payments. Make sure all of your statements match your records and look into any discrepancies you might find. Once all of your accounts match up, it is time to print out and mail your tax forms.
