Really Simple Bookkeeping Lesson 4: Agree the Bank

This lesson is part of the series: Really Simple Bookkeeping

Do you run a very small business, so small that you're not registered for VAT?

Would you like to know how to keep your records really simply?

Bookkeeping doesn't have to mean buying expensive desktop software.

If your business has only a few transactions a month, you can keep your records easily on a nice simple Excel spreadsheet.

This lesson will show you the fourth part of that - agreeing your lists of money received and spent to what's in your bank account. That's what accountants call a "bank reconciliation".

Included in the price of the lesson are the video and a fully illustrated .pdf document.

Hi, I'm a Chartered Accountant by profession and have now branched out into making screencasts.

My "Sage Tricks for Accountants" video series came about after having learnt these tricks the hard way as I struggled to turn a set of records on Sage into a set of balancing accounts.

And my "Really Simple Bookkeeping" video series was inspired by the number of really small businesses who just don't need to buy expensive desktop software to keep their books.
