Bookkeeping and accounting, handled properly.

Whether you need regular bookkeeping or help getting your accounts back on track, Clarity Accounting & Bookkeeping provides friendly, straightforward support suited to your business.

Five areas of support

Pick what you need, or hand over the lot.

Most clients start with day-to-day bookkeeping and add compliance or advisory work as the business grows. Tap a heading to see what is included.

The foundation. Your transactions coded correctly, your accounts reconciled, and your invoicing and bills kept under control, so you always know where the business stands.

  • Bank reconciliations
  • Accounts receivable and invoicing
  • Accounts payable and supplier payments
  • Catch-up work on a backlog of books

The deadlines that carry penalties if they slip. Payroll and GST are prepared, checked and filed on time so you are not the one watching the calendar.

  • Payroll processing and payday filing
  • PAYE, KiwiSaver and leave records
  • GST return preparation and filing
  • Tax preparation and planning

Where the numbers start earning their keep. Regular reporting plus a sounding board for the decisions that actually move the business forward.

  • Month-end financial statements
  • Balance sheet reconciliations
  • Cashflow forecasts
  • Financial consulting
  • Human resources support

If you would rather do some of it yourself, Marelize will show you how. Training is built around your business and your own file, not a generic course.

  • Xero or MYOB setup and chart of accounts
  • One-on-one training sessions
  • Bank feeds and reconciliation habits
  • Ongoing support when you get stuck

Starting a business involves several important setup steps. Marelize can help you register your business with the Companies Office and IRD, including registrations for income tax, GST and PAYE.

She can also assist with setting up accounting software such as Xero or MYOB, along with Smartly payroll. If you need help with your online presence and marketing, Marelize can recommend experienced web developers and other suitable providers.

How it works

Support that fits how you actually run.

A

Ongoing bookkeeping

Regular weekly or monthly support, with your books kept current and reporting delivered on a set rhythm.

B

Catch-up projects

Behind on your books? A one-off catch-up brings everything up to date and ready for GST or year end.

C

Training and handover

Prefer to keep it in-house? Get set up properly on Xero or MYOB and trained to keep it that way.

Also worth knowing

The practical details.

Local or remote

Meet with Marelize in person where distance allows, or manage everything remotely through Xero or MYOB if that works better for you.

Works with your accountant

Clarity Accounting & Bookkeeping keeps your file clean and reconciled through the year, which makes your year-end accountant's job faster and cheaper.

Confidential and careful

Your financial information is handled discreetly and accurately, with attention paid to the detail that matters at audit or year end.
