Consideration of the following points may improve the organisation of your records:

Procedures

The creditors or purchase ledger control account will show how much you owe your suppliers at the end of each month.
Reconciliations

?suppliers' statements.
Stocktake
If your business carries any stock,Christian Louboutin chaussures Fifi or 100mmvente pas cher, you will need to count it at least once a year. To ensure that the count is carried out efficiently and accurately you should consider the following points:
?stock items should be stored neatly and logically to make counting easier
?all staff involved in counting should be given clear instructions
?try to minimise the movement of stock during the count. If possible deliveries in and out should be withheld until the counting has finished
?spot checks should be performed during the count.

Schedules
There are a number of schedules that have to be produced so the accounts can be prepared and/or audited. Your accountant can prepare all of these schedules ourselves, but if you were to produce them,Tods donne Gommino scarpe viola, it would save time.
You may wish to consider the preparation of some of the following schedules:
?a detailed list of additions and disposals of fixed assets with a copy of the appropriate sales and purchase invoices attached
?schedules showing each item of stock held, the quantity,Hogan scarpe donna nuovo arrivo 2012 grigio, unit value and total value. Indicate any stock showing each item of stock held, the quantity, unit value and total value. Indicate any stock items which are old or damaged
?a list of your debtors at the year-end including how much they owe you and how long they have been outstanding. Indicate any which are unlikely to pay you
?a schedule of all bank and cash balances at the year end, together with all the bank statements for each bank account
?a list of creditors that should include HMRC as well as the usual business suppliers.
Not all of these schedules will be applicable to your business and therefore before doing anything you may wish to discuss this with your accountant. 相关的主题文章：
