Introduction to Bookkeeping for Small Business Owners

When starting a business, you may not know what is required to account for your financial transactions—if you must register for a sales tax permit, how to process 1099s, and more. It can be an overwhelming task to set up your bookkeeping file if you’re unsure of the terms and the process for recording your company’s activity. In this course, profitability and growth advisor Candy Messer explains definitions for terms commonly used in accounting, and shows you how to post different types of transactions. Candy also reviews guidelines regarding 1099 reporting and sales tax compliance. Learn how to set up your bookkeeping file and the process to enter your business activity accurately, and get tips on how to organize your documentation for tax preparation and making required estimated tax payments. Join Candy in this course to gain the peace of mind and confidence to make more informed business decisions.
