3. How can you say that an accountant is good?
For me, good accountant is money well spent, knows how to budget and will discuss your current financial situation and your financial goals, and always help you create plans in the future. Good accountant should not only manage your finances but also teach you how to budget in order to keep healthy credit, a steady cash flow and grow your business. Good accountant always manages time well, transparent /trustworthy, highly organized and know how to prepare financial statements and accounting reports for planning, controlling, budgeting and decision-making. They should know about the three key financial statements, the balance sheet, profit & loss and cash flows account.
