Troubled by business accounts?
20.08.19
MANY business owners
feel genuinely troubled by their business finances.
They don’t know how to measure them and they don’t
know if they are making money, but help is at hand
from Local Enterprise Office Donegal, who are
running a Small Business Accounts programme starting
in September.
The ten week course will run for one evening a week
for the duration of the programme, starting on
September 9th and will give small business owners
and those working in accounts a good working
understanding of the accounts they need for their
business. |

Michael Tunney, Head of Enterprise, Local Enterprise
Office Donegal. |
“Accounting provides
the small business owner with valuable information
about the state and health of their business. If you
can’t measure it, you can’t manage it, therefore it
is a vital ingedient in any business success,” head
of Enterprise, Michael Tunney said.
He explained that this course will help business
owners better understand their finances and as a
result help them make better decisions for their
business.
“Many small business owners in particular will often
say that accounting is "boring" or "too hard," but I
urge them not to fall into that trap. Instead of
relying on others, gaining an understanding of the
financial needs of your own business will give you
an edge because no one else is going to take as much
care of your net assets as you would.”
The Head of Enterprise explained that during the
programme all participants will be given an
opportunity to discuss their respective challenges,
which will enhance engagement and understanding.
“At the end of this workshop each participant will
be able to: Keep accurate books and records; Make
informed financial / business / staffing decisions;
Properly manage and plan their tax filing
obligations; Plan their business cash flow; Know
where they stand financially and pay only as much
tax as is legally required,” he concluded.
The ten week programme can be booked online at
www.localenterprise.ie but places are limited so
early booking is advised. |
