The bookkeeping heritage of London

Bookkeeping in London has evolved a lot. In the late 1800s, the city started to see a railway boom, and the manufacturing hubs began to bloom. At that time, ledgers were in the form of heavy books managed by clerks and accountants. However, by the mid-20th century, the punch card accounting system revolutionized bookkeeping. As Online Accountant stepped onto the stage, we saw a much-changed bookkeeping landscape, and we joined the bandwagon, leading from the front the evolution to state-of-the-art, tech-savvy, today’s cloud-based bookkeeping solutions.

Tax laws and compliance

We understand that London businesses must take tax law compliance seriously. Here is how we help:
Ontario has a 13% Harmonized Sales Tax. To stay audit-free and keep the CRA at bay, we help businesses ensure accurate reporting and timely filings.
If you are a small business earning less than $500000, the federal-provincial combined tax is just 12.2%. We make sure that the maximum goes into your pocket by claiming all possible deductions, which many business owners are sometimes oblivious of.
For compliance when it comes to payroll, we ensure that you stay up to date with WSIB contributions, employer health taxes, and the CRA requirements.

Fun Fact About Bookkeeping

Bookkeeping has roots in ancient civilizations. Ancient Mesopotamians stored data on clay tablets. The double-entry bookkeeping we use today was first developed in 1494 by Luca Pacioli, a friend of Leonardo da Vinci. Many basic bookkeeping principles remain unchanged today, while modes have evolved greatly and Online Accountant takes the lead in adopting new tools.

Partnering with Online Accountant is not just hiring a bookkeeper. It’s connecting with a strategic ally.
