7 Important Tips When Making New Year 2023 Accounting Resolutions for Your Business

7 Important Tips When Making New Year 2023 Accounting Resolutions for Your Business

For many of us, the end of the year isn't complete without making resolutions for the year ahead. Desperate to get in shape, many people swear by eating healthy and exercising regularly. If you're a fan of setting personal goals for the coming year, don't forget about your business. Take the opportunity to examine your company's financial health and look for ways to improve. If getting your business in tip-top shape is your priority, consider following the following accounting resolutions for 2023.

1. Review your books

To reap the benefits of business success, you need to be aware of what's going on. To help you accomplish this important task, try reviewing your books on a weekly basis in 2023. This practice helps business owners manage cash flow more effectively.

Reviewing your books will help you monitor and evaluate the weekly revenue and expenses generated by your business. If an unfavourable problem occurs, you will find it and have the opportunity to correct it in a timely manner.

2. Seek professional tax planning advice

You are responsible for ensuring that your business tax is paid correctly. By getting professional tax planning advice, you can be confident that your business is compliant with Income Tax and GST regulations. A tax professional can advise you on deductions and credits for which your company may qualify. This person stays informed about new tax laws and codes that may affect your business's bottom line.

3. Review growth, revenue and sales goals

Take time to reflect on 2021. Is your company growing or shrinking? Check how your revenue and profit fared in 2020 compared to 2019. Find out if your sales numbers are trending up or down. Were your spending numbers troubling?

Have you made a list of goals for 2021? If so, how effectively did you accomplish your goals? Reflecting on 2021 will help you determine how your company has changed over the past year. If your business hasn't improved, analyze the statistics to find out why.

4. Update your payroll system

Updating your payroll system can streamline your business operations and save you money. Paying employees electronically instead of using paper checks can save everyone time and valuable resources. During your payroll update, check the status of all your workers. You are correctly classifying people as employees, independent contractors, or consultants. Misclassifying one can cost you money and incur fines from the government.

5. Collect unpaid customer invoices efficiently

When a customer's invoice goes unpaid for a long period of time, your business's cash flow takes a big hit. Before reaching out to your paying customers, you must gather some essential information. Determine if the invoice in question is correct. Are all elements of the commercial invoice present with the exact amount due? Make sure you send an invoice to the customer. Also, determine if the payment due date has already passed. After concluding that a customer's invoice is indeed overdue, consider sending them a polite and friendly e-mail to give them a nudge. Ask your customer to check if they have received the invoice. If they've lost it, graciously offer to resend it. By being nice, but firm, you can increase your chances of collecting cash for invoices and retaining customers.

6. Plan for significant business expenses

As a business owner, you can celebrate one day landing a high-profile client while witnessing the heating and air conditioning system in your business property. During 2021, unexpected business expenses are inevitable. Preparing for unexpected expenses now rather than later can prevent financial disaster if something goes wrong.

7. Outsource Accounting Functions

Ever feel like you don't have enough hours in your day to get everything done? This may be especially the case if you are trying to do all of your company's accounting functions in-house. Outsourcing accounting functions can increase both the efficiency and performance of your business:

• Cost reduction

• Giving you access to the best accounting talent and resources

• Providing you with timely access to financial reports

• Time-saving

• Enhancing security

The beginning of a new year is an exciting time. You need to wipe the slate clean when planning for next year's success. To make 2023 your best year yet, consider following these tried and true accounting resolutions for your business. Let us know how we can help your company throughout the year.
