Background

Bookkeeping

Business companies and freelancers are obliged to prepare records or bookkeeping according to the German commercial code or other laws, despite of the size or turnover of the company.
Turnover and size of a company are only important for the question, if a balance sheet needs to be prepared or if a simple profit and loss calculation is sufficient.
The bookkeeping is the “business card” of a company when dealing with tax authorities and banks.
It is the basis for the taxation of a company and is proof of financial- and earnings- statements.
