DO YOU KNOW YOUR BUSINESS NUMBERS??


 



Every transaction in Business involves numbers.  Whether you are buying or selling, numbers are important.

In manufacturing, numbers tell you the cost of each unit of goods produced.  In the service business, you need numbers to determine your charge out rate.

Business numbers show you how much you have put into your business (capital), how much you have made (profit), and how much you have taken out (drawings).

Business numbers help you know whether sales are increasing or declining.  Business numbers help you understand the difference between your cash in bank and the profit made.

Business numbers forms the basis for tracking and comparing transactions such as monthly, quarterly and annual sales; inflow and outflow from inception of business, etc.

The importance of business numbers cannot be over emphasized.

A business that does not know its numbers is weak.  It cannot access its growth; neither can it make projections to further grow its activities.’  This is a major reason why many businesses fail, because business owners do not understand their business numbers.

Understanding your business numbers is easy.

YOUR NETWORTH : THE PSYCHOLOGY OF THE PAY CHECK 



As an employee, the idea of a pay check at the end of the month puts you in a value box.  You may be lucky to be in the top value, or unfortunate to be amongst the bottom value based on ‘Subjective Negotiation’.

Your satisfaction in work and life largely depends on your perception of your pay check, and you start believing that is all you are WORTH.


George never took time to establish his ‘real’ NETWORTH, and found it difficult to earn more despite his many qualifications.

Whether you are negotiating a new wage, an increase,  or quoting for your services,  you gain satisfaction when you negotiate base on your ‘Networth’. Your  Networth helps to ensure that you do not under-price or over–price your self. It’s not about calling a figure or ‘psyching’ your self, it’s about understanding why you should be paid a certain amount.

Your NETWORTH can be computed using a  number of criteria such as – your educational background, personality, soft skills, etc. These are criteria employers use to minimise the amounts paid as salaries.

Below is a typical example of a college graduate NETWORTH

IMPORTANT MATTERS IN BUSINESS – TAX PAYMENTS


Emily James runs a small business.   Her confusion with taxes and tax payments inspired this article.

Tax is an amount paid from your earnings to the Government for efficiently running the society.

Businesses pay tax on their profits (Income – Expenses).   Employees pay tax on their earnings (salaries and wages).

Under the Nigerian tax system,  companies pay income tax of 32%.  Employees pay between 7% and 24%, depending on the amount earned.  For casual employees,  i.e. those without a regular source of income are taxed differently, either as a fixed amount or percentage.  Computing taxes can be complicated and most often requires the help of a Finance Expert.

Not paying your tax or making wrong remittances is seen as a criminal offence.  As the year rolls to a close, ensure you have made your relevant tax payment to the relevant Tax authority.

‘Shut the Government up by dutifully paying your tax.  Then you can demand what is rightfully yours from the Government.’


I remain passionately committed to your success in life and business!

THE TWO MOST IMPORTANT DOCUMENTS IN YOUR LIFE! ( THE MYB ™ SERIES )





If you are 18 years or older, there are two important documents you will need during your lifetime.  The first is your international passport.

The second most important document you need in your life is – your Tax Clearance Certificate  (TCC).  This is your ‘Tax Passport’.

A Tax Clearance Certificate ( Tax Passport) is a document issued when you pay your tax to the Government. It makes you a bonafide member of the society and gives you the right to demand good governance and amenities from the government.

Not paying tax makes you an illegal member of the society and can result in criminal charges against you.

Whether you are self employed or own a business,  it’s your duty to make tax payments at the end of each year.   If you are an employee,  ensure that your employer has been remitting all taxes deducted from your salary especially as the year end draws near.

As a self employed business owner or as an employee, there are  certain tax – free deduction you can enjoy on your earnings.   It’s your net earning that should be taxed.   To avoid a wrong tax computation and enjoy the available tax – free deduction on your earnings, please seek the help of a finance expert.


I remain passionately committed to your success!
