Bookkeeping involves the systematic recording of financial transactions to maintain accurate and organized financial records. It is essential for businesses to track their financial health, make informed decisions, and comply with tax regulations.

A bookkeeper is responsible for a range of financial tasks, including posting expenses (debits) and receivables (credits), recording all financial transactions, handling invoicing, processing payments, and managing collections. They conduct monthly reconciliations of credit cards and bank accounts, maintain the general ledger, and oversee payroll processes.

On the other hand, an accountant takes on more strategic financial responsibilities. They prepare company financial statements, analyze the overall cost structure of the business, complete tax returns, and provide valuable advice to business owners regarding financial decisions. While bookkeepers focus on the day-to-day financial operations, accountants contribute to higher-level financial analysis and planning.
