Do I need bookkeeping for myself as an individual or just my
business?
Answer: Bookkeeping for a business is essential. A
business simply cannot thrive unless it has the data needed
to analyze the past, budget in the present, and plan for the
future. Businesses also need financial data in order to
write business plans, procure insurance, and apply for loans
and/or lines of credit. For small business owners and
freelancers, these needs overlap heavily with the
individual’s finances as well. Because most small business
owners claim their business income and deductions on their
individual income taxes, the finances of the individual and
his/her business often become intertwined. Individuals need
to keep track of which purchases are tax-deductible, how to
separate business from personal expenses, the status of the
individual’s credit rating, retirement savings options, and
overall tax strategies. For these reasons, personal
bookkeeping for a small business owner is highly
recommended.
