Why Franchise Owners Hate Franchise Accounting

Do each of your franchisees submit reports in different formats? Is inventory tracking a nightmare? Are royalty payments arriving late? 

As a franchise owner, you likely deal with franchisees who each have their own method for balancing the books. Dealing with inconsistencies in sales reporting, inventory management, and royalty payments can cause stress and anxiety, not to mention mess with your bottom line.

For many franchise owners, bookkeeping is the most complex part of business operations. You must keep up with income, expenses, and financial records for multiple locations. You also have to track inventory levels, costs, and valuations for all of your locations. If your franchise spans a large region, you may have additional work related to reporting sales and income taxes for multiple states. All of this is often too complicated for a single person to maintain.

Proper record-keeping is essential for franchise owners to maintain financial transparency and meet legal and financial reporting requirements. However, keeping organized records for multiple locations can be a daunting task. Reconciling the books for a single month may take days or even weeks to do, leaving you with very little time to deal with other critical components of owning a franchise, such as advertising and pursuing growth opportunities.

Which Bookkeeping Picture Would You Rather See in Your Franchise?

Recordkeeping and Sales Reporting

Your records are only as healthy as your bookkeeping practices. The Remote Quality Bookkeeping team will provide expert record keeping and sales reporting so you have an accurate view of your franchise finances anytime.

Without a reliable bookkeeper, you may not have the time or experience to track your franchise revenue and expenses. Poor maintenance your of accounts can lead to cash flow issues and staffing problems due to off-base sales reports.

Inventory Management and Expenses

The right bookkeeper can bring financial organization and expertise to your franchise so you can optimize your inventory and expense management practices. This, in turn, can improve profitability and operational efficiency.

If you don’t have thorough inventory management and expense reporting in place, your franchise may overspend or miss out on cost-savings. This can lead to high overheads and too much inventory on hand, which will ultimately eat into your profits.

Sales and Income Taxes

Because franchises operate in multiple locations, franchisors must abide by for income and sales tax regulations for multiple jurisdictions. An experienced bookkeeping team can ensure accuracy on all accounts, keeping you out of hot water with the IRS.

Failing to follow proper local, state, and federal regulations for sales and income taxes can lead to serious financial penalties, legal action, and damage to your franchise’s reputation. When these issues continue due to poor franchise bookkeeping, you run the risk of losing your business license.
