benefits that a good accountant brings to the company
Having our own business or simply registering as a self-employed person in order to be able to invoice for services or work carried out is closely linked to a process that goes beyond the merely professional, but which, nevertheless, must be treated with great care and from knowledge: Spanish & UK Tax and Accountancy, financial, fiscal and labour management. Gone are those times when an accountant only did sums, entries and solved business problems. In the office of the 21st century, the accountant is one of the most important figures in the company, carrying out many different tasks.
As a self-employed person or as an SME, it is vital to decide how we are going to solve this management. It is not the same to be a freelance professional who issues four invoices a month to certain companies, than to set up a restaurant chain and hire ten waiters. The fact is that this professional in economics can be worth as much "for a broken as for a broken". That is to say, we should not locate him only taking the monthly accounting of the company, he can become a kind of family doctor of the business, being a very important base for the decision making.
A good accountant: much more than a lover of numbers
Let's be clear. Accounting is not the most exciting profession, but not everyone is cut out to be a great athlete, singer or chef either. Regardless of this, it is important to have a good professional in this field and one who also builds our confidence. Let's keep in mind that it is not only someone who keeps our books, but also our advisor and even a confidant in business matters.
The first recommendation is to hire the services of an accountant before starting with the operations of the company. If we do not have a large budget to integrate him into the team, it is always possible to hire him by the hour or to hire an external person to carry out the tasks from his office.
It is obvious that hiring him costs money. But a simple calculation will convince us of your need: let's count the time it would take us to do your tasks ourselves (closing the accounting year, for example) and that an accountant can do for us in "a moment".
And the fact is that the functions of an accountant are very broad. From the completion of a procedure such as obtaining a permit, to the registration and cancellation of workers, tax returns, monthly accounting, internal audit, profitability study, etc. In addition, there is never a lack of reasons to hire them:
Having an accounting advisor from the beginning would help us to choose the legal form (Limited Company, Public Limited Company, etc.) of the business, since not all businesses have the same legal structure and, with regard to the Treasury, it is not the same to declare as a self-employed person as a company.
Help to elaborate the business plan. Making projections and putting down on paper what exists in our minds is not always easy. The accountant will help us to make a realistic investment and financing plan.
Master your accounting before it masters you. No matter how simple our business is, our accounting may end up getting bigger. For example, the simple rule of "must" and "shall" can lead to real mismatches. In this way, the accountant can help us with the billing report, with our patrimonial situation or to know how healthy our debt is.
Social Security and the Treasury: two enemies of arms to take. From keeping up to date with the payment of the quota, the liquidation of taxes, making a purchase, expanding the business.... Many of these situations involve informing the Administration, so having help can get us out of many messes.
A support for difficult decisions. Let's imagine that we need to apply for a loan or that we want to launch a new product. These are decisions that can change the course of our business and directly affect the financial structure of the company. Therefore, an accountant will advise us on what is best and not to overlook the small print.
