Importance of Bookkeeping
When you file your HST, PST, corporate taxes and payroll related filings late you will incur penalties and interest. As a small business owner you work hard to increase your profits and want to avoid these unnecessary costs. If CRA selects you for an audit or review you want to ensure that your filings are accurate and that you are audit ready.

Internal financial reports such as a profit and loss statement with comparisons to prior year or a budget, statement of cash flows and a Balance Sheet are essential to understand your profitability and key performance indicators. Your sales are the most important, however you need to know how to maximize your bottom line with these sales.

One day you may plan to sell your business. A buyer will want to do financial due diligence to validate your normalized EBITDA, assets, liabilities and retainer earnings.
