How to choose an accountant in Calgary
It can be daunting to find an accountant or a bookkeeper. Whether you are looking for an accountant to manage your business accounting or personal finances, here are some tips and tricks to help you in your search for the perfect Calgary accountant.
The first question you need to ask yourself is whether you need an accountant or a bookkeeper. Bookkeepers are generally more involved in a business' day-to-day operations. Tasks typically performed by a bookkeeper include processing payroll and posting journal entries to the general ledger. It is critical that a Calgary bookkeeper be precise and detail-oriented.
An accountant, on the other hand, is responsible for setting up the financial accounting system within which a bookkeeper operates. A Calgary accounting firm may create budgets and financial statements, prepare tax returns, and analyse costs.
Considerations for choosing an accountant
One of the best ways to select an accountant or bookkeeper in Calgary is to get recommendations from a trusted friend or relative. You can also check with your local chamber of commerce or search via telephone directories and online directories such as this one.
Many Calgary accountants will offer a free consultation. Take advantage of this and meet with them. You should feel comfortable with your accountant. He or she should inspire confidence. You will be sharing confidential information with your accountant. Once you have started work with an accountant, it may be difficult to pick up and move to another accountant. There is a ramp-up time for the accountant to get familiar with your business.
Questions to ask an accountant:
- how long have you been in business?
- do you have other clients in my industry? Can I contact any of your clients as references?
- what is your billing structure?
- what services do you offer?
- what accounting software do you use?
With these tips and tricks to find an accountant in Calgary, you are well on your way to finding the best accountant to meet your needs.
