Book-keeping makes your paperwork easier. It provides a system that tells you - and your accountant - exactly what is going on. Whether you use a manual or computer-based system, the same principles apply. It is worth deciding if you are going to computerise your accounts at an early stage.

- Tips for cash businesses such as shops.
