Accounting is a discipline taught in technical schools, universities, full-time and part-time courses. In the process of comprehending this science, it is necessary not only to learn the chart of accounts, the basics of working in special client programs, but also to study the tax legislation concerning the accounting of finances at the enterprise and reporting to the tax office.
Instructions
Step 1
It is impossible to learn how to do bookkeeping - you definitely need practice. Therefore, with all the desire, it will not work to avoid the learning process. If you don't want to spend a few years, then sign up for courses. But they must have at least 80 academic hours. There you will receive basic information about accounting, its technology and facilities, and you will be able to gain some practical knowledge of working with accounting programs such as 1C: Accounting, 1C: Enterprise, BukhSoft.
Step 2
The accountant must also know the rules of document flow, since all his activities must be documented. Pay special attention to the study of the rules for maintaining the "primary" - invoices, invoices, cash orders and so on, as well as filling out the main reporting forms - the balance sheet (form f-1) and the profit and loss statement (form f-2).
Step 3
An integral part of the accounting department of any company is the relationship with the tax office. You must be able to summarize information about all transactions that the taxpayer makes that reduce or increase the tax base. The information that you submit to the tax office must be absolutely reliable so that the company does not become the object of constant checks and is not fined. There are special programs such as "BuchSoft" or "Declaration", which reduce the labor intensity of tax accounting, but even here one cannot do without special knowledge.
Step 4
If you want to learn how to conduct accounting in your small enterprise, then to shorten the training period, choose highly specialized courses on accounting in enterprises with a specific tax system: STS, UTII, OSNO.
Step 5
You will not be able to learn everything right away, therefore, for the first time, involve an external accountant in accounting. His services cost much less than the services of a full-time accountant. Professionals advise not to switch to self-management for 2-3 years. During this time, you will gain invaluable experience that will allow you to confidently sail in the sea of transactions, balances and taxes.
