What Are Management Accounts?
Management accounts are monthly financial reports prepared specifically for the business owner and management team — not for SARS, not for the bank, but for you. They show you exactly how your business performed last month: revenue, costs, gross profit, net profit, and how that compares to the previous month and to your budget.
At Your Accountant®, management accounts are not an afterthought — they are a core part of every client relationship. Every month you receive a clean, clear picture of your financial position so you can run your business with confidence.

Cashflow Forecasting with Syft Analytics
Knowing what happened last month is important. Knowing what is going to happen in the next 60 days is priceless. Using Syft Analytics connected to your live Xero data, we give you a daily cashflow forecast that shows your projected cash position up to 60 days into the future.
This means you can see cash gaps coming weeks before they arrive — giving you time to act. You can model the impact of a big purchase, a new contract, or a slow month before it happens. You stop reacting to your cash position and start managing it.
Daily Cash Position
See exactly how much cash you will have on any given day in the next 60 days.
Early Warning
Identify cash shortfalls weeks before they occur — with enough time to act.
Scenario Modelling
See what happens to your cash if you take on a new contract, buy equipment, or lose a client.
Budget Integration
Compare your actual results against your budget in real time — not at year-end.
Budget vs Actuals — Accountability Built In
A budget without tracking is just a wish list. We work with you to build a realistic annual budget in Xero and Syft, then compare your actual results against it every month. This creates accountability — you know immediately if revenue is tracking behind, if costs are running over, or if you are ahead of plan and can reinvest.
The businesses that grow fastest are the ones that know their numbers. Not at year-end — every month. We put that information in your hands and help you use it.
