My two youngest sons 6, and 4 are in t-ball. Twice a week my family goes to the recreation field, once for practice and once for a game. My husband is the coach and every practice he tells them; Stay in your position! Don’t throw the bats! Run the right way! DON’T PLAY with BUGS when you’re on base! But rest assure Saturday morning comes and what do they do. They run all over the field. They throw their bats at each other. They run the opposite way, and a pile of them are hanging out looking at bugs. Last Saturday, I started realizing these crazy 4-6 year olds are a lot like the business owners I work with. They spend years reading books on managing they business themselves, and even though they practice managing their business correctly. But when it’s game time, or time to track spending or transactions, the owner goes back to their original bad habits. It’s like all of us. We know something we’re doing isn’t working and we know how to fix it but we need the support in place to do it. CONSIDER ME THE SUPPORT! As a bookkeeper I likely won’t be the person that tells you lots of things you don’t already know. But I will save you time by implementing those practices. I will save you time by showing you ways to automate. I will save your weekends, by taking care of the work you don’t have time to do.

Park run #26 42.5 minutes. 4 mins better than last week.👍 I accidentally ran all of the 5K today. I didn't plan to - it just sort of happened whilst I was in my own little world of thinking random thoughts. I think I could run a little faster if I concentrated on my pace. I watched the faster runners fly past me (3 times faster than me) but decided that I didn't want to even try to get to that level as it requires a lot of effort on my part. It's not my priority. Today's thoughts were about the long list of work I need to do before 31st January and how I can do the following: a) chase people for information b) use cunning motivators to get them to comply before Christmas 😁 c) get the work done when it comes in d) manage expectations (if it all comes in at once it needs allocating to a time slot) e) train my new little helpers f) fit my Christmas socials, QuickBooks events, rest, etc. into the equation I'm working on it 🤣 It's a balancing act. The doors are closed to new business until February. One year it won't be the case but until then, existing clients take priority. 🙏

EBITDA explained to Kids Brilliant Share By: Nicolas Boucher Original Post Below 👇 👇 👇 "EBITDA explained to Kids Explanations for kids... and adults! 💰 What is EBITDA? EBITDA stands for: Earnings Before Interest Taxes Depreciation Amortization It's a financial metric that shows how much money a company makes before taking into account certain expenses. ❗️ Why is EBITDA important for Businesses? EBITDA is important because it gives businesses an idea of how much money they're generating from their operations. This is useful for investors and lenders who want to know how profitable a company is. It’s like a scorecard to know how much money a company is making. 💸 How is EBITDA calculated? To calculate EBITDA, you need to start with a company's revenue and subtract its cost of goods sold. Then, you subtract its operating expenses (like salaries and rent). This gives you the company's EBITDA. 👧🏼 Example: Let's say you and your friends sell lemonade from a stand. You make $20 selling lemonade, but you spent $5 on lemons, sugar, and cups. You also spent $5 on flyers to advertise your lemonade stand. To calculate your EBITDA, you would start with the $20 you made selling lemonade, and subtract the $5 you spent on lemons, sugar, and cups. This leaves you with $15. Then, you would subtract the $5 you spent on advertising. This leaves you with an EBITDA of $10. 🔼 EBITDA vs Net Income Imagine that on top of your expenses of your lemonade stand you have to pay taxes (for example to be allowed to sell on the street). Imagine as well that you need to put money aside to invest in a new machine or a new stand because your machine is getting old. This is called depreciation. In EBITDA, you don’t take consideration these expenses. But the net income is what remains as profit after all these expenses are taken in account. 👉 Do you have other examples? Share this example around with kids… and adults!
