Companies And Money

Bookkeepers And Accountants

Bookkeepers deal in taxes, cash flow, sales, purchases and different business transactions of the company. Bookkeepers first record all the appropriate figures in the books of original entry, or Journals. At the end of a period, usually a month, the totals of each book of original entry are posted into the proper page of the Ledger. The Ledger shows all the expenditures and all the earnings of the company. On the basis of all the totals of each account in the Ledger, the bookkeeper prepares a Trial Balance. Trial Balances are usually drawn every quarter.

The accountant’s responsibility is to analyze and interpret the data in the Ledger and the Trial Balance. The accountant is to determine the ways in which the business may grow in the future. No expansion or reorganization is planned without the help of the accountant. New products and advertising campaigns are also prepared with the help of the accountant.

Profit & Loss Statements And Balance Sheets

From the Trial Balance, prepared by the bookkeeper, the accountant creates a Profit & Loss Statement and Balance Sheet.

A Profit and Loss Statement or a Profit and Loss Account shows the income or loss of the company for the period. It may contain the following items: Sales, Trading profit, Depreciation, Rent received, Interest paid, Profit before tax, Tax, Profit after tax, Dividends, Profit retained, Earnings per share

The accounts of the Ledger which reflect the assets, liabilities and capital of the firm, make up a Balance Sheet. This shows the net worth or book value of the company.

Auditors And Their Reports

Auditors are usually independent certified accountants who review the financial records of a company. These reviews are called audits. They are usually performed at fixed intervals - quarterly, semi-annually or annually. Some large companies maintain a continuous internal audit by their own accounting departments. These auditors are called internal auditors.

Not so many years ago the presence of an auditor suggested that a company was having financial difficulties or that irregularities had been discovered in the records. Currently, however, outside audits are a normal and regular part of business practice.

Auditors see that current transactions are recorded promptly and completely. Their duty is to reduce the possibility of misappropriation, to identify mistakes or detect fraudulent transactions. Then they are usually requested to propose solutions for these problems.

The auditors review financial records and report to the management on the current state of the company’s fiscal affairs in the form of Auditor’s Report or Auditor’s Opinion.
