Do I need a bookkeeper if I have an accountant?

Despite the terms bookkeeper and accountant being interchanged frequently, they are quite different roles. Bookkeepers generally work with the general ledger accounts, recording transactions, categorizing transactions and bank reconciliations. Accountants file taxes for the business and analyze the financial status.

Also, most accountants don’t like to do bookkeeping work and most bookkeepers don’t like to do accountant work. Since accountants charge a higher rate, selecting an experienced bookkeeper is definitely a cost and time saving business decision.
