Every year-end presents a stressful time for most businesses, as it often coincides with the need to prepare an annual set of financial statements. Preparing financial statements is a tricky endeavour and most entities are reliant on software to complete the process. For those that don’t have the advantage of software, where would the compilation process even start? Truthfully, there is a lot of work that goes into preparing the accounting records before financial statements are compiled, regardless of using software or not. Accordingly, ProBeta Training has prepared a training session aiming to answer the following questions: • What type of entities need to prepare financial statements? • Which accounting framework can I, or should I use? • Can I prepare the financial statements myself, or do I have to outsource? • Do I always need a balance sheet, income statement and a cash flow statement? • What best practice guidance is available for preparing financial statements, e.g. ISRS 4410? • What preliminary work needs to take place before the financial statements are prepared? • What are the specific year-end adjustments that I should look out for?
