For small business owners in Canberra, bookkeeping and accounting play crucial roles in effectively managing their finances. While these two functions might appear similar at first glance, there are distinct differences that set them apart.

Bookkeeping focuses on recording and organising financial data. Accounting is the interpretation and presentation of that data to business owners and investors.

Bookkeeping typically consists of:

  • payroll
  • invoicing
  • receipts and bills
  • recording business transactions

Accounting typically consists of:

  • financial statements and reports
  • budgets
  • tax returns
  • analysing business performance

Bookkeeping and accounting are two essential functions that play a crucial role in managing the financial aspects of a small business. By grasping the differences between these functions, small business owners can make informed decisions, maintain accurate records, and navigate the complexities of financial management more effectively.

What People Love About Us

I have never found a more passionate finance broker than Vik and his team at Oysterhub. We were about to lose our house when our business took a down shift. Vik saved us from getting a finance deal approved when banks shut the door at us. It's great to work with people who actually care about people not just profits.

Joanne Sims NDIS Business Owner

I have never seen someone more passionate tax accountant than Adarsh about wanting to help people save time on their menial processes - makes me wonder the experiences in business he has gone through but I'm not complaining I am thankful for it. He is the only tax accountant who has helped me save an extra 8-10 hours per week on lazy accountant tasks and facilitate in enabling me to put these tasks to more productive areas.
