Business owners want to spend time on generating profits for their business and less time worrying about whether the accounts have been reconciled correctly – Sunshine Office Solutions can help you achieve this.

We have clients who come to us after having fought and ‘lost the battle’ to do their own small business bookkeeping. Some have their books in such a tangle that they’ve put off coming to us.

It’s a vicious circle and too many small business owners are needlessly putting themselves through it.

It can be daunting when your books are in a mess and you have no idea how to sort it out. It can be downright scary knowing that you may have incurred fees and fines for not meeting your ATO obligations. It could also mean the end for your business if you don’t know what’s going on with your bottom line.

Georgina and her team at Sunshine Office Solutions takes care of every facet of your bookkeeping – from reconciling, reporting and payroll to lodging BAS and meeting ATO compliance obligations. We don’t provide a one-size-fits-all solution. Instead, you receive custom bookkeeping services that meet the unique needs and challenges of your business.

If you need help with one-off services, like setting up accounting software that makes your business run smoother, then we are happy to assist you with this too. Our Bookkeeping services are performed from our office in Mountain Creek, Sunshine Coast Queensland, or at your location. We’re here to make your life easy.

A bookkeeper’s main role is to process the financial transactions of a business into a software system such as Xero, and help turn the wheels of the business by paying bills and chasing customers for payment. All businesses will generate a lot of paper, such as purchase invoices, receipts and expense claims. The bookkeeper will transform a bundle of paper into something orderly and accurate. Some bookkeepers will also prepare Tax returns, run payroll and prepare and file self assessment tax returns.

Most bookkeeper’s operate as a stand alone service. In some ways it’s like having your own part-time finance person.

Frequency

A bookkeeper will work on your books weekly, fortnightly or monthly. The frequency depends on the size and complexity of your business and also how up to date you need/want your financial records to be.

An accountant will generally work at less frequent intervals, for example to work on quarterly Tax returns or annual accounts. They could be involved on more specialist projects at certain times, for example to work on a business plan or cash flow forecast.
