Bookkeeping

What does the service mean?

Under the Accounting Act (kirjanpitolaki), every business – including a sole trader (toiminimi) – is required to keep accounts. Bookkeeping means that every item of the company's income, expenditure, loans and payments is recorded in the system on the basis of a supporting document. This produces the income statement, the balance sheet and the information needed for taxation.

Ongoing bookkeeping is done regularly, usually every month. Bank transactions are reconciled with the supporting documents so that the figures reflect reality. Up-to-date accounts show you how the business is doing, and VAT returns (ALV-ilmoitus) can be filed correctly and on time.

Accounting records must be kept for the periods set by law: as a rule, supporting documents for six years and the financial statements (tilinpäätös) for ten years from the end of the financial year.

Who is the service for? For sole traders and limited companies (osakeyhtiö, Oy) that want their bookkeeping done regularly and on time.

Questions

Frequently asked

Does a sole trader also have to keep accounts?

Yes. A sole trader is also required to keep accounts. The scope of the bookkeeping depends on the size of the business, and we agree on a suitable approach together.

What is a transaction line?

A transaction line is, for example, a single bank account, sales invoice, purchase invoice or cash transaction. Monthly packages include a maximum number of lines, and any lines above that are priced separately according to the price list.

Yes. The handover is best done in a controlled way: we agree with your previous accountant where we will pick up from and which records will be transferred.
