West Midlands Book Keeping Services for Small Business

Bookkeeping services won't be expensive compared to hiring a full or part time accountant. However, you will still pay a fee for online accounting services. How much that fee is exactly will depend on a number of things, which I'll get into on this page.

Paying for Bookkeeping Services for Small Business

One thing that will impact the price of your bookkeeping services is the number of invoices you have for customers. Clearly, your outsourced accountant will have to handle all these invoices, and will charge accordingly. This is the most basic part of small business accounting services.

Your outsourcing Accounting firm will also take the amount of vendor invoices you receive into account, and how many checks you need to write. If your business will keep your bookkeeper rather busy writing checks, your price will reflect that. Should the number of vendor invoices change with the season, you can usually negotiate your outsourcing costs to reflect that fluctuation. The number of employees in your firm will also affect the cost of your outsourced bookkeeping. This is because payroll is harder to manage; the more people need to be paid. Yet no matter what your outsourcing expenses, using an outsourced accounting department can only save you money over hiring a department on your own.

                                          

Book keeping services are sometimes outsourced even by larger companies. Granted, larger companies choose to hire their own bookkeeper’s full time, but sometimes that's not possible. Even a large business owner can find herself in a bind between the time an on-staff accountant leaves, and the time his or her replacement starts.

No matter how large or small your company, it's good to know that there's a fallback solution for those times you want to hire a bookkeeping employee, but can't. At times like that, you can easily turn to outsource bookkeeping to handle your Book Keeping Services. You may even start with outsourcing as a temporary measure, but like it so much you stick with it.

Handling Book Keeping Services Yourself

Some small business owners think they can handle their accounting on their own. After all, they figure, no one knows their company better than they do. Besides, there are now all kinds of book keeping software on the market to help them out. Personally, I think that kind of reasoning only sells the business owner short. Yes, it's true that no one knows your business better than you. This is the very reason that you need to concentrate on that business, and not get bogged down by bookkeeping. Outsource that instead, and leave your time open to focus on your company.

Small Business Payroll – Part 1

Small business payroll is a very important and potentially time consuming task.

Why is small business payroll so important?

Employees don't stay very long if they aren't being paid on a timely basis

Payroll tax penalties can be substantial

The penalties on federal payroll taxes are especially harsh. If your employees don't get paid on time, they'll probably just quit, but the IRS doesn't mess around when they go after unpaid Social Security and Medicare taxes. They'll go after the owner personally and anyone else who was a signer on the checking account, and the penalties can sometimes be as much as the taxes owed in the first place. If money is tight, federal payroll taxes are the one bill you don't want to miss. Employee turnover can be expensive too when you consider the cost of recruiting and training a new employee. Since you have to pay them anyway, you might as well make sure they get their checks on time.

Why does it take so much time?

Small business payroll services aren’t technically difficult, but there are A LOT of moving parts and that's where people get in trouble. Here is a list of things you have to do for each employee every payday:

• Calculate gross wages
• Calculate federal income tax withholding
• Calculate state income tax withholding (if applicable)Calculate employee Social Security and Medicare withholding
• Write a check for the net pay (Gross wages - Withholding)Prepare a legal pay stub that shows year to date wages and taxes
• Calculate employer Social Security and Medicare
• Calculate employer federal and state unemployment taxes
• Track all off these items for government reporting
• Then...Pay the FICA and federal withholding taxes (either monthly or semiweekly depending on your assigned deposit schedule)
• Pay state withholding (usually monthly - check with your state for details)
• Pay state unemployment taxes (again, check with your state for payment frequency, but this is probably a quarterly tax)
• Pay federal unemployment taxes (annually, unless you owe more than $500, then you pay quarterly)File Form 941 for federal payroll taxes every quarter
• File your state unemployment tax return every quarter (and possibly a wage detail report as well)
• File the annual Form 940 for federal unemployment taxes
• Prepare annual W-2's for you employees
• Mail copies of the W-2's with Form W-3 to the government
• If you withhold state income tax, there is probably an annual form that too
• Once you have the appropriate tax tables, forms and a calculator, none of these items are difficult or time consuming on their own. The challenge is tracking everything over the course of year and keeping the deadlines straight, and when you add them up, you can easily spend over an entire working week on payroll compliance every year.

The 9 Common Tax Audit Triggers – Part 2

5. Claiming Business Losses Every Year

Business losses are part of the small business world. The first few years are tough and sometimes you’ll go through a rough period after enjoying profitable years. However, if you are constantly claiming losses, year after year, you’ll be on the IRSs radar. They might assume you’re taking deductions you’re not entitled to or under-reporting your income.

6. Filing a Schedule C

Most small businesses report their income and expenses on a Schedule C. This form does increase your odds of being audited but don’t let the fear of an audit prevent you from filing this form. One way to avoid filing this form is to have your business setup as a corporation. This can have its own set of issues but you won’t need to file this form anymore.

7. Excessive Entertainment or Charitable Deductions

Some business owners feel entitled to deduct entertainment or deduction expenses and if they are legitimate and fall within the guidelines of the IRS than you should absolutely take those deductions. Taking your family out for dinner or donating to your local religious organization for a purchase of a piece of art is not an allowable deduction. If your tax return has higher than average entertainment or charitable deductions, this will set off an alarm with the IRS and a possible tax audit will follow. For this reason, if you are going to be taking large deductions of the kind listed in this section, make sure you have excellent records. To take the deduction for entertainment you must substantiate where it occurred, with whom, and for what purpose. Deductions of higher than $75 must be accompanied by a receipt.

8. Claiming Your Vehicle As 100 Percent Business Use

Most people get confused when it comes to properly deducting your auto expenses. Basically there are two ways to do it. The choice is based on which one gives you a higher deduction. You can use the IRS standard mileage deduction or the actual expense. You can’t deduct both of them. Finally, if you claim 100% deduction of your automobile or you’ll need to have all records on hand. This deduction is scrutinized quite a bit. When deducting for business use of a car, you’ll have to choose between the IRS standard mileage rate and actual expenses. Deducting both of these on your tax return will bring the IRS knocking. In addition, if you claim 100 percent business use on the depreciation form for your vehicle, you’ll need precise records that include mileage logs, dates, and the purpose of every trip.

9. Drastic fluctuations in income from year to year. 

This one is hard because plenty of small businesses have had an unusually good or bad year here and there. If you’re reported taxable income this year is dramatically higher or lower than in previous years it might send a red flag to the IRS. Fluctuations in income can signal that something went unreported in prior years. However, if you keep proper records and have a good bookkeeping system, you don’t have to worry. As long as you can substantiate your expenses and income, you can be ready even if the IRS does have to audit your books.

Bookkeeping Online Service

If you are good with numbers and you enjoy working with people, starting an online bookkeeping business may be an entrepreneurial idea that you may want to consider. With an online bookkeeping business, you will be able to set your own hours and have some control over your income. While setting up a bookkeeping business can be very rewarding, it does take a fair bit of exertion on your part to accomplish an outstanding work that would measure up to the expectation of most discerning clientele. Here are a few things to consider when starting your own business in this field.

Get A Good Education
While you could potentially start a bookkeeping business without doing any research, it is usually best to get your bookkeeping education first. There are a number of different bookkeeping schools that you could attend in order to receive a top-notch bookkeeping training that you would need for this business. It is usually a good idea to go to a bookkeeping school where you can get a bookkeeping certification. Once you have an official recognition, customers will be more relax in doing business with you.

                             


Equipment

Once you are ready to start your bookkeeping business, you’ll need to invest in some equipment and supplies. You will need a computer that has Internet access, a printer, a scanner, and possibly a filing cabinet. In addition to buying a computer, you may want to invest in some bookkeeping software. There are a number of programs online that will allow you to handle your bookkeeping customers. This will make your job a lot easier, and help keep all of your customers records safe and secure. You could potentially get a computer and printer/scanner combo for $500 or less. Software packages also differ in price. Some of them will cost you around $50 a month in order to set up a number of customer records in your account.

Marketing

If you are going to start an online bookkeeping business, you may be required to market yourself with companies overseas to initially get a significant market share to burden the start up overhead cost of your business. To begin with, you may need a website to inform your potential clients of your services. If you can create your own website, your online business could be up and running soon maybe right after paying for the hosting service. Hiring a professional web designer can make your website look more strikingly good but may increase their cost significantly.

After creating a site to market all your bookkeeping services, you’ll need a number visitor to check your site to make them go up in search engine rankings and make your site more visible to among the online crowd. You may start bidding up jobs on freelance sites as a way to attract your potential customers. You may also start looking on pay-per-click ads on search engines like Google and Bing to get more people to come on your site. You could spend as much or as little as you want on advertising, depending on how much you money you are willing to invest.

Handling Customers

If your website is good enough at converting visitors into paying customers, it will have a better chance of growing them through time. For the mean time you need to provide the best service among all your customers and if way possible beat the competition so you can keep them hook up while expanding the scope of your services that will cover all the needs of your paying yet truly discerning clientele.
