What are the different types of bookkeeping?
There are two types of bookkeeping that accounting firms practice when managing a business’s financial activities: single-entry and double bookkeeping.
Single-entry Bookkeeping
Considered the most straightforward method, the single-entry bookkeeping method records every transaction in a single-entry journal. This entry can either be an income account or an expense account. One prominent example of this method is cash books.
In this method, bookkeepers have a cash book wherein they record the income and expenses of the business. They start with the current cash balance to which the business’ income will be added, followed by the subtraction of the expenses. Once all of these transactions are factored in, bookkeepers can calculate the ending balance within a specific period.
Double-entry Bookkeeping
Double-entry bookkeeping records every transaction in two accounts: credit and debit. Here, the amount of the recorded debits (assets) must be equal to the recorded credits (liabilities).
Double-entry works by following the basic equation Assets = Liabilities + Owner’s Equity. Asset is the money that the business has or owns; liability is anything that the business owes; and owner’s equity is the owner’s investment in the company.

Filing a tax return is one of the most taxing and time-consuming tasks that business owners and managers face, but with the aid of bookkeeping, tax preparation is made easier. This is made possible by the detailed organisation and proper keeping of all financial records such as invoices and receipts.
