The Best Southern Illinois Bookkeeping Service for Small Business Owners

CMW Tax Services has seen what happens to small businesses, and we want to make sure that you can have access to the most reliable and cost-effective Southern Illinois bookkeeping service.

Bookkeeping and Payroll can be time-consuming, especially if it isn’t done efficiently. You should spend more time taking your business to the next level – not on how much “book work” you must catch up on. That’s why you need to have an efficient system, so you can keep track of how much revenue you’re bringing in and taking out. Bookkeeping

How the bookkeeping process works.

The purpose of bookkeeping is to record the financial activity of a company or organization, and the effect it can have on its cash flow. It can be done manually, but an electronic method will be more common in today’s Digital Age. We also process payroll for you.

Part of the process is to keep track of documents associated with recorded transactions, which can include:

Invoices
Receipts
Checks
Deposit Slips

Other banking information may also be recorded, and each entry is totaled at the end of every month. This is done according to money taken in (under the “debit” column) and money taken out (under the “credit” column).
Bookkeepers can use this information to create financial statements, which can include:

Income Statements – Shows a summary of the company’s profit or loss.
Balance Sheets – Shows the company’s financial position.
Cash Flow Statements – Illustrates the company’s cash flow.
Statements of Changes in Equity – Shows the change in a company’s cash reserves and retained earnings.

Every one of these documents can give a company some insight about its financial situation.

By outsourcing your back office, you can stop stunting the growth of your business and start doing what you love and become successful. The failure of many businesses comes from spending too much time and resources on things that could be handled in a more efficient manner. CMW Tax Services Corp has seen small businesses fail without outside help. We want to make sure that businesses can have access to the most reliable and cost-effective Southern Illinois bookkeeping service.

There are two main types of bookkeeping systems, and both of them have their uses and their advantages.

Here is a list of the two main bookkeeping systems:

Single-Entry System – It involves a “cash book” that is like a checking account statement. It records the income and expenses associated with that business or organization.
Double-Entry System – Every transaction is recorded in at least two different ledger accounts.

The single-entry system is enough for most small businesses, but a double-entry system can be used to record additional information. It can include information with regard to assets, liabilities, equity, expenses, and revenue accounts.
