Accounting Memo

Accounting memo is an internal document of the company, which is used for accounting records, when it comes to transactions that have no external media, or transactions for which there are no specific internal documents. First, it should be made clear that transactions the company made with third parties must have valid media such as invoices. A bill cannot be replaced by a note in accounting or any other document differently. For example, when purchasing goods to be carried out, the only valid document is an invoice or similar document in case the transaction is with a person not required to charge (Guffey, et al., 2010). 

Some internal operations are recorded in the accounting documents using specific than accounting memos, such as proof of expenses, proof of income, cash receipts, appropriations, referrals, purchase orders, store entrances, exits store, debit and credit notes. For operations in which there are no specific internal and external documents, then the memo is used for accounting. Examples of this can be the accounting adjustments for inflation, depreciation, amortization, corrections, common accounting adjustments arising when preparing the balance sheet date (Barnlund, 2008). 

Since the accounting is based on transactions in the accounts record must contain clear statements used, the partial values ??of each movement and the respective debit and credit values. Accounting notes can be in preprinted forms or generated entirely by computer. All accounting software has a default format for each memo and also some allow you to customize the format to suit the requirements of the audience.

Cash book template: a useful tool for bookkeeping

The cash book is one of the most important accounting books for corporate bookkeeping. In the form of a simple document, often an Excel spreadsheet, the cash book is used to record a   company’s cash payments . After all, if the annual financial statements are due at the end of the fiscal year, the IRS doesn’t only want to see the transactions done via debit or credit, but also a list of all cash transactions. Keeping a cash book helps ensure that this list is complete. Corresponding templates are a great help. The advantage of a   digital cash book format using an Excel spreadsheet : It’s quick, clear, and the entered amounts are automatically offset against each other. In this way, digital cash book templates offer a direct overview of the financial situation of a company and spare the need for time-consuming calculations – where errors can easily creep in. A cash book template also has advantages for all self-employed individuals – regardless of whether you’re oblig...

BREXIT AND VAT

The EVD has direct and over-riding effect on all EU Member States but local legislation is required because the EVD allows for countries to pick and choose certain rules. As a result, the local VAT rules across the EU are not always consistent. Why is this important when thinking about Brexit? It’s important because once the UK leaves the EU it will theoretically (but this is not certain) no longer be bound by the EVD. This means that the UK could have free reign to amend its VAT rules as it sees fit. For example, it would no longer be prevented from applying a reduced VAT rate on supplies of women’s sanitary products which is currently precluded under the EVD. Also, the rates of VAT applied to physical and digital newspapers and books (zero-rated and standard-rated respectively) could be harmonised without having to get the agreement of all 27 other EU Member States.
