TinyBooks Version 6.0 for the Macintosh Major Update Released
TinyBooks is a flexible, non-bloated, single-entry bookkeeping program and the perfect companion to help with taxes throughout and especially at the end of the year. Though designed with small businesses in mind, it can also be used in the home to help with the family finances.
Many tax-related programs (such as TurboTax, or TaxCut) are tied to a particular tax year and must be re-purchased every single year. TinyBooks is NOT tied to a particular tax year. Tax laws may change, but the need to keep track of expenses, income and profits never seems to change, and that is exactly what TinyBooks is all about!
TinyBooks actually works by itself. All you have to do is enter each expense or income item, as it happens, or at month end, and the program calculates everything else, automatically and instantly.
The Accounts dialog and the non-modal Reports window allow you to create Income, Expense and Custom Reports, sorted as desired, and for any time period. TinyBooks also includes a new Bottom Line Report. This report is exactly the report that an accountant would want. There are no parameters required for this report, the program knows exactly how to create it. An end-of-year report is effortless to create.
The new Accounts Dialog not only instantly displays monthly and year-to-date account totals, but now also displays monthly trends (instantly, graphically, intuitively and without any user intervention.) Budgets are also optionally and easily integrated into any account.
TinyBooks also includes a Professional Invoice Printer utility and the invoices are printed on plain white paper, so no expensive third-party forms are required. Totals are automatically calculated and automatically formatted. In version 6 of TinyBooks, the Professional Invoice Printer has been totally revamped. It's now easy to create a multitude of standard and custom forms, such as Invoices, Estimates, Statements, Proposals, and more.
And, of course, transactions can be imported and exported, as desired (for instance, to give to an accountant, or for import into a spreadsheet, etc.) All transactions can be easily sorted by Date, Comment, Check#, Account#, Amount or Type of Transaction (expense or income.)
TinyBooks also supports all kinds of domestic and international taxes, such as Sales Taxes, GST (Goods and Services Tax), PST (Provincial Sales Tax), VAT (Value-Added Tax) and more. TinyBooks can even handle multiple types of taxes at the same time...and all while keeping the program as simple to use as it ever was.
TinyBooks works by keeping track of multiple accounts. There are four basic types of accounts: Deductible Expenses, Non-Deductible Expenses, Taxable Income and Non-Taxable Income. For a typical small business, that's about all that's required. In fact, the non-deductible expenses and non-taxable income accounts are just included for your bookkeeping convenience, as they are not included in profit computations. If you are using this program for home use, rather than as a small business, such account types are very handy. Business Profit is calculated by subtracting the sum of the deductible expenses from the sum of the taxable income. You never have to request a calculation, all calculations are performed instantly any time you add, delete or modify any item.
