Maintaining the books is the most important part of the accounting system. It is actually one of the most valuable activities in any business. Not only does it help you keep track of your business’s income and expenses and lets you know how well your business is doing, it is also a requirement by law to keep proper books.
There are two basic components to the accounting system:
- the collection and organization of data – “bookkeeping”, and
- the analysis and decision-making of the data collected – “accounting”.
Without an orderly bookkeeping and accounting system, a company may be left in the dark, lacking knowledge of important information that could either make or break the business. The accounts have to be setup, so accurate information can be derived from the system.
There are many bookkeeping and accounting software available that can help in the process of great record keeping, and setting up the accounts accurately on one of these systems and maintaining it, will benefit the company in many ways. You will have accurate reporting from which you can make good business decisions; your taxes will be filed based on correct numbers; and you will have all your important business information in one clear comprehensive system where they are easily accessible and up-to-date.
Proper accounting system setup enables an organization to analyze its business by the numbers and uncover trends and patterns that would otherwise be invisible. A good accounting system setup allows you to make proper forecasts and projections, and can help you determine months or even years ahead, how to construct a suitable budget for your business.

Safeguard Sensitive Information on Unwanted Documents
Safeguard your sensitive information on disposable documents by shredding them thoroughly in a micro cut shredder. These shredder make it impossible for scammers and identity thieves to access any of your personal and confidential data. They are capable of shredding credit and debit cards, cd’s, dvd’s, staples, and getting rid of them in such a way that makes it impossible for anyone to reassemble. Not taking precautionary measures to prevent important information from getting in the hands of the wrong people can be quite costly, not only in monetary form but also in the form of your reputation and good name being tarnished which could take months or even years to recoup.
Need more reasons to purchase and utilize a shredder? Here are three (3)
1) It’s the Law – Federal laws such as FACTA and HIPAA require that certain types of material be shredded. Failure to do so can warrant some hefty fines and penalties.
2) Protect Your Customers – When disposing of customer, client or patient information, it should be shredded. Information such as a name, date of birth, social security number, address and other personal information can quickly turn into a headache for your customer if it falls into the wrong hands.
3) Protect Your Employees – While we often think of protecting customer information, we often forget about employees. Human Resources and other business departments often handle sensitive employee information that should be properly shredded when no longer needed.
Why take unnecessary risk when you can easily avoid it? Purchase and use a cross-cut or micro-cut shredder to safeguard your confidentials.
