Make a checklist of the things you need to do to streamline your annual accounts. Here are some suggestions to start you off:

• Answer all questions in our questionnaire.
• Make sure you have everything asked for in the questionnaire.
• Sign the completed questionnaire.
• Arrange for a stocktake if needed.
• Count cash in the tills and petty cash at the end of the last working day.
• Work out money you have earned and not been paid as at the end of the financial year. If it’s earned but not invoiced, it must still be counted.
• Work out money you owe your creditors at balance date.
• If you have a high income (more than $179,030 after deducting expenses) make sure you’ve paid enough tax.
