What is bookkeeping?

Bookkeeping is a control and auditing tool that is very important for any organization. As part of their collaborative work, bookkeepers record and update the business's revenue and expense processes, in order to verify its financial turnover. It is important to manage accounts effectively to ensure growth and success for the organization, and to be prepared for the future. 

It is necessary to distinguish between one-sided bookkeeping and two-sided bookkeeping:

One-sided bookkeeping is simpler than double-sided bookkeeping, in one-sided bookkeeping you write the income and expenses of the business, in order to arrive at a profit and loss statement (income and expenses). In one-sided bookkeeping, you write on the income side what income was received and from whom. On the other side of the expenses write the amount of expenditure and what was spent for. In other words, one-sided bookkeeping records only transactions of income and expenditure. There is no balance sheet statement in which assets, liabilities and capital are recorded.

Dual bookkeeping (double-sided bookkeeping) is a method of bookkeeping in which each transaction is recorded in two places (or tabs) – by duty and by right. If we sum the total of the tabs, the amount owed against the amount of the right will be balanced. As a result of the recorded journal orders and the balances on the cards, it will be possible to prepare two reports: an income statement and a balance sheet.

How do I know which type of bookkeeping is right for my business?

In order to decide which type of bookkeeping is right for a particular business, it is necessary to take into account the size of the business, the type of business, and the weight of financial information in the decision-making processes of the business. Dual bookkeeping is suitable for large and complex businesses that require a comprehensive and detailed accounting system. One-sided bookkeeping, suitable for smaller businesses. The precise provisions are found in the Income Tax Regulations (Management of Account Books) Law, 5733-1973, where there is a specification of which types of businesses need dual bookkeeping. Of course, someone who does not 'fall' into the definition of someone who needs dual bookkeeping can manage his business according to one-sided bookkeeping. Ultimately, it is necessary to consult with an accounting expert to determine which type of bookkeeping is best suited to the needs of the business.

The following are examples of businesses that require dual bookkeeping (as of 2022):

  • Manufacturers – whose annual turnover exceeds NIS 3.8 million or 18 employees or more.
