Features Your records · Financial statements

Your accounts for the year, without doing the accounts yourself.

At the end of the year, Reports → Financial statements turns everything you have recorded into the statement of profit or loss, the statement of financial position, changes in equity and cash flows, in the format your auditor uses. That is what makes tax time simple.

How it works

What you do, and what Meku does with it.

  1. You

    Settings → Business profile: the end of your financial year. Settings → Company details: registered name, registration number, TIN, directors and auditor, if you have them.

    Meku

    Prints them on the accounts.

  2. You

    Nothing.

    Meku

    Closes each month automatically and warns you a week before. You can still record anything new, but the figures of a closed month stop changing. The owner can open a month again, and the reason is recorded.

  3. You

    Reports → Financial statements.

    Meku

    Prepares the four statements for the year from every sale, expense, purchase, loan and asset you recorded. It starts with the word Unaudited, because it is not audited.

  4. You

    Print it or send it.

    Meku

    Gives your auditor the data they need for the filing and the assessment, already organised, not a box of receipts.

What's included
  • Statement of profit or loss
  • Statement of financial position
  • Statement of changes in equity
  • Statement of cash flows
  • Company details on the pack
  • Monthly close, with reopening on record
  • A line Meku does not know prints its name and no figure

Questions

Does Meku file my taxes?

No. It prepares the accounts your auditor or accountant works from. It does not calculate tax.

Why does it say unaudited?

Because it was prepared from your records and has not been checked by an auditor. That is exactly what a bank or an auditor expects from accounts that a business prepares itself.

What if I have not recorded loans or assets?

The statements print the name of the line with no figure, not a dash, because a dash would mean zero. Record them and the figure appears.
