Management Accounts for SME’s

Management Accounts for SME’s

Management Accounts
We are firm believers that the production of regular and accurate Management information greatly helps small business owners control the business finances.  Access to up-to-date and accurate financial information is crucial to understanding how your business is performing and helps with the day-to-day decision-making and on-going business strategy.
A regular review of the “bottom line” and other key indicators tracking overall business performance ensure there are no unpleasant surprises in the pipeline. Regular management information helps enforce a discipline within the organisation, creating good habits by keeping on top of the bookwork.  Accurate Management Accounts can also help in forecasting business performance, assessing future tax liabilities and the impact of decision-making on performance and cash flow.
Web based solutions can provide key information in “real-time” and this is a great advantage for essential business tasks such as credit control and monitoring short-term bank and cash movements.  With a bit of extra work, other information such as Payroll journals can be added to the system to reflect the full cost of Payroll and the magical accruals and prepayments to produce an accurate set of periodic Management Accounts.  The management accounts can then be used for a number of purposes such as internal management meetings and external meetings with your Bank Relationship Manager.
We work with you to decide who does what, so that you have access to regular accurate financial information as well as on-going support from us.
