Bookkeeping Basics for Creatives

with Ernest F. Howard, CPA

Program Description:

In this program, CPA Ernest Howard will explain basic accounting terms and concepts for the practical life of a creative artist. The class will provide an overview of some key accounting principles as well as a step-by-step guide to the bookkeeping process. Some topics to be covered include the various options for tracking funds, from simple envelope systems to more formal computer programs and the tensions between the desire to minimize taxes and still maintain sufficient income to qualify for loans and other opportunities. Creative artists will leave with a better understanding of how to manage their personal books and finances to ensure their arts business is in order.

Presenter:

Ernest F. Howard, CPA has been in practice since 1978, offering a full range of accounting, tax, business consulting and bookkeeping services, as well as aggressive tax planning and tax-audit defense.
