Easybooks can help Jamaican Small Business maintain proper Accounting Records


In Jamaica ,whether a business is operated as a company, self-employed entity, partnership or any other type of organisation, good record keeping practices should be adopted for several reasons.
Based on Jamaica's self-assessment system, if a business is selected for an audit, the business operator would be asked to produce records to verify the information filed on the Income Tax Return(s). Once the business person has proper records, then the tax auditor would be able to quickly examine the records produced, and make a determination on the accuracy of the Income Tax Return filed. 

Each year business operators are required to submit their final Income Tax Returns . While filing tax returns are important, business operators are also reminded that it is critical for them to keep records of their business activities, such as sales receipts, purchases invoices, payroll records, utility bills, transportation expenses, rent receipts, bank statements and all other business and administrative expenses.
Although business persons are not required to submit supporting records along with their Income Tax Returns, it should be noted that under the Income Tax Act they are required to maintain proper records, in English, for a minimum of six years. The records should then be made available to the tax authority, if the person's income tax return is selected for an audit or if they are asked to verify their income or expenses.
To fulfill this requirements in a cost effective way a proper Accounting software is necessary. Easybooks can help Jamaican Small Business maintain proper Accounting Records
