Business Recordkeeping and Cash Management Means SurvivalLeonard HollerAt last, a friendly course in bookkeeping and accounting designed for small business owners. This class will help shed light on the mysteries of basic accounting and bookkeeping, covering topics such as, “What are debits and credits?”, and “Exactly what do those numbers on the financial statement mean?” Then, don’t get caught with an empty bank account. “Cash flow”, refers to the amounts of ach received and spent by a business during a period of time. It is the life blood of your business. For many businesses, the timing of collections and/or seasonal variations in volume, result in uneven cash flow throughout the year. Learn about how to track your cash—sales, collections, disbursements, capital budgeting – and other financial management issues. We will also discuss sources of financing for business expansion.

Succession planning can be especially complicated in family businesses due to the relationships and emotions involved and because most people are not comfortable discussing topics such as aging, death, and their financial affairs with others.
