Accounting for Franchises
Franchise Accounting with Cutts & Co
Franchise accounting is a complex matter, and can quickly draw attention from the focus of a business. There are risks typically not associated with many small businesses, and there is potential for the administrative burden to overwhelm owners.
Good franchise accounting will not only relieve the pressure on owners, but will help both them and the franchisor to manage costs, revenue and information to better grow the business and brand.
