Financial Management

Understanding your numbers is an essential part of running your business. A budget is a financial document used to create a plan of revenue and expenses and track actuals against that plan. If the actual numbers delivered through the financial year are close to the budget, this suggests that the owner is in control of their business. On the other hand, if the actuals diverge from the budget, this sends a message the business may be out of control. Having a plan plays an important role in the overall success of your business.

Our services include:

  • Assistance in developing a plan
  • Aligning the actuals to plan
  • Variance analysis (plus or minus)
  • Forecasting and “what if” scenarios
  • Comparison reports to prior years and/or periods
  • Profit & Loss projections for use in future planning and credit acquisition
  • Customized financial reports/Presentations
  • Project planning

Our services include:

  • Setting financial targets and goals
  • An activity-based costing analysis of products and services

Business Process Improvements

It’s a well known fact that organized people accomplish more in less time. However, a neat and tidy desk doesn’t automatically equal efficiency. Instead, efficiency comes from having a system in place that eliminates wasted resources and enables work to be complete free of error. All About Balance works with clients to take charge of their environment and return their business to a state of calm and order.

Our services include:

  • Review of accounting processes and procedures
  • Paper flow management
  • Elimination of office clutter
  • File organization and management
  • Training techniques on how to work more efficiently and cost effectively

eCommerce Business Solutions

Millions of dollars of revenue is generated through on-line stores and “merchant accounts” daily. Although the operation of your eCommerce business may vary slightly from the traditional way of doing business, the same rules and regulations apply.

In November of 2008, the federal government announced that they will be going after online merchants who fail to pay taxes on the goods they sell. According to the Globe and Mail: “The Canada Revenue Agency launched the probe about two years ago and initially focused on all eBay Canada "PowerSellers" in 2004 and 2005, which totalled about 10,000 people. The agency recently told eBay Canada it plans to expand the investigation to include all PowerSellers in 2006 and 2007, putting several thousand more people under review”. More information on this decision can be found under Quick Links.

If your business falls under this category, let us help you. We have worked with sole proprietors and small businesses to basically go “back in time” and organize their books to ensure they comply with all laws and regulations relating to their activities online. It can be done, and we will help you do it.
