What is a Bookkeeper?
A bookkeeper is in charge of providing accurate, up-to-date financial information of a business. Typically, a bookkeeper will deal with the day-to-day expenses and payments that are made. The bookkeeper will record all of these transactions in a clear, easy to understand way. Accountants will then use the records that are created by the bookkeeper to make reports of information as to how exactly the company is doing. Often these reports are sent to the owner and the CEO of the company so that they can know how their business is doing financially.
What Does a Bookkeeper Do?
There are quite a few responsibilities that a bookkeeper has to fulfill. However, the main responsibility of a bookkeeper is to maintain accurate records of all of the transactions of a company. One of the main duties of a bookkeeper is to maintain the general ledger. This means that they are recording the number of sales that are made, as well as the expenses that are incurred.
Other responsibilities of a bookkeeper include:
VERIFIES TRANSACTIONS
One responsibility of a bookkeeper is to make sure that all of the transactions recorded are accurate. They are able to do this as all of the receipts are collected. After getting the receipts, they will document all of the information of the transaction. This information includes the amount of money spent, the date that the expense was incurred, and making sure that the transaction is recorded in the correct ledger. Generally, there is a general ledger, a supplies ledger, and a customer ledger. It is important that each transaction is recorded in the correct ledger, so the bookkeeper ensures that happens.
TAKES CARE OF PAYROLL
There is nothing worse than having a late paycheck. Having a bookkeeper ensures that you no longer have to worry about payroll and making sure that everything gets out on time. There is a lot that goes on with payroll, and it is the responsibility of the bookkeeper’s job to ensure that it all happens accurately and on time. A bookkeeper will make sure that every one of your employees gets paid the correct amount on time. They also make sure that the payroll taxes are taken care of so that you do not have to worry about that.
RECONCILES THE BANK STATEMENT
Sometimes as expenses are being made, processed, as posted, it can sometimes seem to be confusing. It is a responsibility of a bookkeeper to reconcile the bank statements. This means that they will look through all of the bank statements, and make sure that it matches with the records of expenses that you have kept. It is important that your bank statement is regularly reconciled to ensure that you will not have any overdraft fees, and it also protects against any fraudulent activity that could be going on within the company.
What are the Benefits of Hiring a Bookkeeper?
There are many different benefits that come with hiring a bookkeeper. Oftentimes a complaint of a business owner is that they do not enjoy the monotony of the back-office tasks that must be completed in order for the business to be successful. This can not only consume the time of the business owner, but can create a high stress environment, when it does not necessarily have to be that way. That’s where a bookkeeper can come in to help.
