Accountants keep score in two ways. The cash basis method. And the accrual method. For now, don’t get hung up on technical definitions. Just know that your tax return uses the cash basis method. And if your business provides services today but gets paid in the future, you should be using the accrual method. If you don’t, you literally don’t know how much money you made this week, this month, this quarter. #FractionalCFO #TransformationalAccounting #Entrepereneur
