Darcy Bookkeeping

Bookkeeping across Australia, from catch-up work to virtual CFO

Darcy Bookkeeping is a bookkeeping service that works with small and medium businesses across Australia. Its experience is put at more than 200,000 hours of bookkeeping done over a dozen years, spread across more than 40 industries, and the firm says its bookkeepers can work at a client's premises as well as remotely. Its team is made up of registered BAS agents and degree-qualified accountants, and the firm says it takes on work of any size.

Core bookkeeping, payroll and superannuation

Day to day, the firm enters transactions, reconciles bank accounts and manages what is owed to and by the client. Alongside it the firm runs payroll and handles superannuation contributions. Catch-up bookkeeping brings records that have fallen behind back up to date, which lets a business that has let its books slip get its figures in order again.

BAS lodgement and tax-related bookkeeping

Business activity statements are lodged through the firm's registered BAS agents, who also handle the tax-related bookkeeping that goes with them. The firm says its team has been helping businesses in a range of industries with their bookkeeping and tax for many years.

Accounting software setup and advice

The firm works across Xero, MYOB, QuickBooks Online, Saasu and Reckon. It says it has specialists and certified advisers for these packages, and that a business without software can be helped to choose the right one. Setting up and advising on the chosen package is listed as a service in its own right.

Fixed fees, hourly rates and a virtual CFO

Clients can choose an hourly rate or a fixed fee for bookkeeping, which the firm says is meant to keep its services affordable and accessible to businesses large and small alike. Its virtual CFO service provides outsourced finance oversight for businesses that want that level of guidance without building the role in-house.

Where the firm works

The firm says it works with more than 1,000 businesses and has offices across Australia. Its site names clients in Brisbane, the Gold Coast, the Sunshine Coast, Adelaide, Perth, Newcastle and Canberra, and says its bookkeepers come to the client when that suits the business.
