  1. Choosing a Business Accountant - Key Things to Look For MYM Accounting and Business Consultancy Choosing and hiring the right accountant or accounting firm for your company, whether large or small, is a critical decision.

  2. MAKE IT CRYSTAL CLEAR WHAT YOU WANT YOUR ACCOUNTANT TO DO FOR YOU Accounting is a broad field, and skilled accountants usually specialize in one or two areas. As a result, you should be extremely explicit about what you want your accountant to do for you. Basic accounting services will almost certainly be required to assist you in preparing tax and company returns. You should look for a single person or a small practice in this instance. This is not just the most cost-effective option, but you will also likely receive highly personalized service. Look for a small business accountant with relevant experience and competence in these areas if you require more specialized assistance, such as advice on the best method to establish or grow your small business.

  3. RECOGNIZE YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES Your accountant in Castle Hill can provide advice and guidance but ultimately the law will hold you responsible for all matters connected with your business. Any filing with tax or business law authorities falls under this category. You should be aware that in the eyes of the law, ignorance is not an excuse. Furthermore, you cannot absolve yourself of your responsibilities by claiming that your accountant gave you improper advice.

  4. YOU WILL BE CHARGED BY YOUR ACCOUNTANT FOR HIS TIME. Accountants, like lawyers, charge by the hour when working on your account, so don't anticipate any free lunches. Keep in mind that any contact with your accountant could cost you money, so be sure you understand exactly what you'll be charged for and how much you can anticipate paying. Many of your basic queries may be answered with a little Internet study, and the less time an accountant spends on you, the less money you'll pay. You will find that some of the better business accountants offer a free first consultation. Make the most of this opportunity to ensure that your needs and your accountant's services are a suitable match. Fixed fees are offered by some accountants. With this type of arrangement, you'll know where you stand right away as long as you know what job the charge covers.

  5. LOOK FOR VALUE NOT COST SAVING A bookkeeper can provide basic accounting services, especially if your accounting needs are restricted to keeping your books of accounts. However, if you do not engage the services of a qualified small company accountant for any difficult problems such as corporate or personal taxation, you are taking a risk. Keep in mind what happens when you pay peanuts: monkeys.
