Easy Books

Easy Books is a fully functional double-entry accounting application for the iPhone and iPad. The app is developed by Geode Software and is available from iTunes as a free download. It comes with space for 120 entries (transactions) and an example company for you to try it out. You can upgrade with a one-off purchase within the app, and you decide what features you want, so you only pay for what you need.

Easy Books is ideally suited to small businesses and 'one man bands'. We have had lots of feedback from people who love this app; builders, contractors, consultants, musicians, farmers, treasurers and of course bookkeepers. Together they have sent suggestions (via the feedback form) which have improved the app over time.

"What I've been looking for!
I have used so many budgeting apps and none have been able to do what I want them to.
But this app is the best so far and is proof that you get what you pay for. I thought it was a bit expensive but has proved to be money well spent. The one thing I would say is missing is the ability to make a note about each entry but apart from that this is an excellent app."

"By the way, wicked nice job with the password and backup updates!!! I LOVE this App!"

What Does It Do?

Easy Books keeps track of all your accounts, statements, invoices and VAT (Goods and Services Tax). You can enter sales lines, then generate invoices in PDF format to email to your customers (or to yourself for printing and posting). The app can produce a full profit and loss and balance sheet for filing your return and complete your VAT Return showing the calculation. All of the reports can be emailed from the phone in HTML and CSV format and can easily be imported into a spreadsheet.

Once the app has performed an end of year profit and loss report, it's easy to consolidate it ready for the next financial year. Consolidating the profit and loss posts adjustment lines to each income and expense account.

For VAT returns, the app keeps track of purchase VAT and sales VAT and even adjusts the VAT owed when your business runs the Cash Accounting VAT Scheme.
