About Your Inquiry

 

Q. How does Virtual Bookkeeping service work?

A. Depending on the schedule that you choose for the books to be updated, we can perform the bookkeeping services daily, weekly, twice monthly, monthly, quarterly, and annually. Whenever our scheduled time occurs, the day before the deadline to turn in documents that relate to the bookkeeping; bills, checks are written, etc. During this update day, we will also perform any other tasks that may be due to process; online banking activity, payroll, paying bills, and reconciliations. We have many clients that don’t provide any documents, we can access the banking and credit card accounts online. This allows the bookkeeper to grab statements, look up check images, deposit details and be able to fill in a lot of the missing details without having to ask the client for all the information. If you don’t feel comfortable with that, we will rely on you to provide all the information. You should also check with your bank, many these days allow for view-only access where we are assigned our own login.

Q. What is the difference between a bookkeeper and an accountant?

A. Contrary to popular belief, accountants and bookkeepers perform distinctly different tasks for the businesses they serve.

Bookkeepers record and organize financial data while accountants analyze, interpret, and summarize financial information. They often work together on the same set of data, with bookkeepers gathering the most relevant data and working to make that information accessible to accountants.

An accountant might consult with a bookkeeper to clarify financial records or gain additional insight into daily expenses. They share the same goal of supporting a business or individual's financial health through accurate and well-organized information, but they usually work with different steps in the financial management process.
