About Bookkeeping from A to Z
This course is taught by Jeroen who hold several diplomas in business management and has over a decade of experience helping clients reach their goals. In this course you will learn everything you need to know about
double-entry bookkeeping
so you can
do your own bookkeeping
. You will start from the beginning so you don't need any prior knowledge about bookkeeping (however if you do, that makes it easier). We begin the course with the more simple booking and increase the difficulty and complexity as we advance through the course. In this course you'll learn everything you need to know to start doing you own bookkeeping from A to Z and
we build a solid foundation
that you can use in the future to perform bookkeeping tasks for your own company. You will learn about the
fundamentals
of bookkeeping and much more. We discuss things such as the
journal post, t-accounts, debit and credit
. You'll learn how to decide what type of account you need to use for your entry, such as, is the account an
asset
, a
liability
, a
cost
or a
revenue
. And what does this account need to do, increase or decrease. These are the basics to understand bookkeeping. We cover a lot of theory which is important to understand bookkeeping. And combined with the theory, we follow along with a fictional flowershop bussines to put that theory into practice. You'll learn what
invoices
are and how an invoice should be setup in terms of
applying discounts
, vat, returnable packaging, and additional charges such as delivery. And of course how to book outgoing invoices but also incoming invoices and what to do when you need to book credit notes. You'll learn how to purchase assets (
investments
), how to book these and how depreciations are applied and booked. We'll cover
value added tax
, what is it and how does it work in the books. We discuss
accounts payable
(suppliers) and
accounts receivable
(customers). And what should you do if a customer does not pay the invoice? We'll talk about that to. And what to do with
business loans
or money you invest in your company? How should you book sales in your store and how are these different from invoices? What happens if we deposit money in our bank account that we received cash in the shop? Ever heard of
internal transfers
?
Current
and
non-current debts
? We will discuss all of that in this course. Last but not least you'll learn how to perform
end of year bookings
such as the
trial balance
,
accrued accounts
and more. To finish the course we'll set up a closing
balance sheet
, a
profit- and loss statement
and process
taxes
,
reserves
and more. So if you want to learn how to perform bookkeeping for your business this is the course for you!
