Companies in low flow situations are taking a more concerned look at their accounting books to understand and find a solution to slack back on costs and ascend profits. To stay afloat in this economic crisis, they are merging many strategies to build up a suitable and sustainable plan to keep up the cash reserves. Well, this brings companies to focus on making choices to strengthen business in the long term.

We, at Digilekha consultancy, are well-versed in handling critical financial situations and turn the tables to bring stability to businesses by providing better accounting solutions. Here are a few accounting tips to help you overcome the economic crisis as everyone does not have a futuristic approach to save and build reserves for crises.

Monitoring The Cause Of The Financial Crisis:

Internal as well as external factors may affect the financial status of your company. Pandemic is an external factor that has led to the downflow of businesses, bringing the economic crisis globally. It is important to analyze your books for multiple reasons, like are you mixing up business and personal spending? have your customers cleared their invoices on time? Or are your expenditures flooded?

Improve Your Strategy For Long-Term Growth:

Pin down the short-term problems. Sort them out with the help of your accounting team and come up with a business plan that focuses on long-term business continuity and profitability. Engage in constructive meetings with the accounts team to analyze which product or client is more profitable and build a new strategy for long-term growth.

Cut Down On The Wrong Things:

Expansion of business is surely not the real deal for such a crucial time. Cut down such plans of expenditure, which drag the money into investments that are not of utmost importance. Don’t cut down on things that can be life-saving like insurance. Look at your transactions and ask yourself and your accounting team to come up with cut-down plans to minimize the expenditure budget.

Focus On Profitable Clients:

Time-consuming tasks hamper business growth. Revise your revenue forecast to factor in this financial crisis to get real numbers in your yearly budget plans. Strengthen your strategy for profitable clients and provide them proper guidance to surpass this crises period. Cutting down efforts and time on the least profitable products or clients can help you focus your resources in the right direction to maintain your charts higher.

Manage The Operational Costs:

A stable functional system of the company can be achieved with a 13-week cash-flow forecast. This advanced cash flow management can help cover the operational cost. Revisit your contract with clients and customers as everyone will make use of this crisis period to use the clauses to the fullest and avail the extension period for clearing the payments. Track down the money flow from clients and make sure to remind them of the next payments well in advance.

The accounting team can help you to the fullest. Come up with the investment plans in your own company to manage operational costs.

Keep The Existing Business Relations Strong:

Every crisis can be turned over only with the honesty and loyalty shown during the low period. Show your existing client your goodwill to support them and work with more dedication. New customers can clamp down on spending hence, maintaining a rapport with the existing customers can help you keep the flow of business running in a stable direction.

Derive A Backup Plan:

Every time things don’t turn up as expected. In such situations, your team needs to be ready with a backup plan to run the company smoothly. Talk to your team to gain loans from government plans. Make sure your family and friends’ support can be achieved at critical times. A dedicated accounting team can help you overcome the crisis in every situation. Have such a reliable team to make sure business stays stable.

Even with the best strategy and best backup plans, one can still find a few things out of the place. Hire the best bookkeeping and accounting firms or outsource to the best accounting firm to be prepared for internal as well as external factors of risk. Collaborate with Digilekha consultancy to implement these tips in the progress of your company.

  In Budget 2020, Nirmala Sitharaman, the finance minister, announced a new tax system with more tax slabs and lower tax rates. The majority of taxpayers have long requested this, but there is a catch: all deductions and exemptions from the previous tax system must be removed. The finance minister added to the confusion by giving taxpayers the option of choosing between the new regime and the existing one, leaving it up to them to make their own decision. Due to the combined factors of all these variables, tax rules have become more complicated rather than simpler. And if you’re wondering how to decide whether to choose the new or the old tax regime, this blog provides the information you need. We look at the new regime carefully, weigh its advantages, and compare it with the current tax structure. So, let’s begin.
