Social Enterprise Seminar: Accounting 101 for Social Enterprise
26/11/2020

“I have no idea how to record those expenses and revenue. I am so frustrated!”

No worries. We got you! When social entrepreneurs come across accounting issues, they are always hindered by inadequate accounting knowledge. They are more likely to overlook some financial details and the related impact could get worse if the social enterprise has no extra budget to hire accounting staff.

In this Business Clinic, Mr. Victor Pang, KPMG's Audit Manager, will share with us some basic accounting and financial management knowledge. We welcome all current and aspiring social entrepreneurs and individuals who are interested in setting up social enterprises to join the seminar.

Selected topics  

  • Basic principles of accounting and financial management 
  • Terminology
  • Notes for auditing
  • Bookkeeping tips
