As specialist management accountants, we know that management accounting is essential for measuring your business’s performance.

These reports are an invaluable resource when it comes to delivering the fundamentals of your financial performance which can help you to make better business decisions and devise your strategy for the future. Consequently, they are exclusively used for internal decision making. Furthermore, on-going, accurate and regular managerial accounting reports will continue to help you to make the correct key decisions for your business.

However, such reporting can take time and require a great deal of resource, especially for smaller businesses. Outsourcing this function to our team of management accounting professionals can assist with the regular preparation of management accounts and reduce the burden on your internal team. Alternatively, you can use our management accounts assistance on an ad hoc basis whenever it is required.

SFB’s accounting management team can help with a wide range of accounting and finance requirements.

Many of our business accounting clients use our management accounting to carry out all of the duties and responsibilities below. However, it is entirely up to you how many you decide you need us for.

  • Management accounting information, including profit & loss, balance sheet and bespoke reports, including financial statements and statement analysis. All of these are fundamental for the financial management of a business. We can also provide a bookkeeper if your business requires that kind of support.
  • Cashflow statements and forecasting. The financial analysis of your expenditure and income flows will mean you always know what your cashflow is and will be in the future, making planning decisions more accurate and easier to make. Risk-management is, therefore, made easier, too.
  • Setting up your bank account and cloud accounting systems so management information is easily accessible at any time, wherever you are.
  • Help set up your internal processes for making and collecting payments.Closely linked to cashflow management, we can provide external credit control support if required. Keeping debtor days low keeps the cash flowing and is a key component of good budgeting.
  • Preparation of your VAT returns. Making sure your VAT returns are completed accurately and on time, as indeed with all types of tax returns, is a key part of the service provided by any tax accounting specialist.
  • Producing KPI’s for you and your team based on your management information. Our financial professional will work closely with you and your team to identify the most useful KPIs to target and monitor.
  • Reconciling all cash transactions and nominal ledgers. Reconciliation of this data is a basic accounting requirement, but no less important because of that.
  • Managing bank and cash balances. Closely linked to cashflow management, if needed, we can manage your payments to your suppliers to link in to credit control work.
  • Cover for long periods of absence of key internal team members. Such absences do happen and they can be hard for smaller companies, especially, to cover. We can help. Our professional accounting team has all the necessary qualifications help you out for as long as you need it.

Everyone has a personal preference for how much detail they want processing for their corporate accounting needs. We will tailor our service to work for you. So, whether you want just a ‘generic overview’ or a spreadsheet full of facts and figures and indicators, we can custom our approach to work best for you.
