BOOKKEEPING FAQS

Frequently asked questions

Up-to-date bookkeeping is fundamental for gaining a clear picture of how your business is performing. This is important for you as a business owner, as well as any other stakeholders or investors. Accurate records are also essential to be able to make the best decisions for your business, including identifying opportunities to improve cash flow or cut costs. Bookkeeping is also essential to stay compliant with the IRD, avoiding fines or penalties.
Our hourly bookkeeping rate is $75. We estimate your monthly bookkeeping needs and quote for this upfront so you know what you’re going to be paying each month. We keep this under review and may need to adjust as the business grows or if your finances significantly change. In order to provide you with a quote, we will need to understand more about your business. Some of the things we'll need to know are how many transactions you have each month, how many business bank accounts and credit cards you have, whether you run a payroll, and if adjustments are needed for accrued or deferred income or expenditure.​
Cloud-based software like Xero and MYOB means you, your bookkeeper, and accountant all see the same live data from anywhere at any time. They're IRD-compliant, well-integrated with other apps, and built for modern business.
