    Keeping your bookkeeping up to date is an invaluable asset for your business. It allows you to produce current financial statements so that you can assess how your business is travelling at any given time throughout the year. It allows you to budget and see where improvements could be made. With up-to-date financial statements you can see how your business is tracking. You can compare the financial statements with the same time last year, with any budgets set and you can make the best business decisions based on current figures, not projections.

Frequently Asked Questions

What qualifications do you have?

We are a qualified BAS agent (26238758) and this is something that we are happy for you to confirm for yourself with the Tax Practitioners Board.

What is the difference between bookkeeping and accounting?

Bookkeeping and accounting are two important parts of managing your business finances. Bookkeeping is the process of coding daily transactions in a constant and appropriate manner on a regular basis. Accounting uses this financial material to analyse, summarise and create reports for the business and ATO.

How will hiring a bookkeeper help my business?

It will give you back time that you are desperately looking for so that you can put that energy back into your business or family. It will also keep your financial statements up to date and your business compliant with the ATO.

If I choose Cooke & Co Bookkeeping is there any lock in contracts?

No. We do not have any lock in contracts.

Do I have to use all your services to be a client?

Not at all. We tailor our service to your needs. There is no job to small.

Should I have a local bookkeeper?

Not necessarily. Now that there is cloud-based Accounting Software and the ability to email and video chat it makes it easy to securely access your information. We are also happy to travel and see you when required.

What happens when I’m behind with my bookkeeping?

We are here to assist no matter how far behind you are. We can help your business catch up and get you back on track.
