Frequently Asked Questions
What is bookkeeping?
Bookkeeping is the process of recording and organising a business’s financial transactions, including sales, purchases, receipts, and payments. It ensures your accounts are accurate and up to date.
Can I manage my bookkeeping myself?
Yes, you can, especially if your business is small. However, as your transactions grow, it often becomes time-consuming and prone to error. A professional bookkeeper can save you time and help avoid mistakes.
How much does a bookkeeper cost?
Bookkeeping costs vary depending on the size and complexity of your business. At RLFB, we offer flexible, transparent pricing with tailored packages to suit sole traders and limited companies.
What is the difference between an accountant and a bookkeeper?
A bookkeeper handles the daily recording of financial transactions. An accountant uses that data to prepare reports, file tax returns, and offer financial advice. Both roles are important, and we work closely with accountants to keep your finances in order.
