Reporting Procedures
Food costs/ Labor Costs/Other Costs
The best financial procedure to record the costs including food, labor and others should
be through the use of the point of sale (POS). There should be a mobile POS that helps in
minimizing the reporting errors. A proper functioning mobile POS should include accounting
software integration (Kieso, Weygandt, & Warfield, 2016). The strategy may further assist in
forecasting and simplifying the budget for better returns. Hence, the food and labor costs
financial reporting require the use of accounting software that supports the POS system. The
software makes it easy for the accountants to enter the costs data and analyze them for financial
reporting and forecasting. It enables the accountant to estimate the tax amounts as well as to
perform other fiscal reconciliation as required by both the state and the federal accounting
regulations. It is the responsibility of the bookkeeper or the accountant to ensure that the costs
records are properly entered on the POS system. The managers such as the CFO also have the
responsibility of ensuring that the accounting records meet the accounting standards.
Sales Report
The POS system is also essential in keeping the sales record to ensure that the company
keep clean financial accounts for future forecasting. The POS system enables the cashiers to
enter the sales data and the bookkeeper or the accountant of the company uses the data from the
POS system for reconciliation. The sales record should have data separated into two sections
including the revenues and the settlement. The difference between the two sections is called the
cash over and short. The revenues data would include all the sales while the settlement record
would contain all the deposits such as cash deposits and the coupons.
