Financial Know How

Accountants have a host of responsibilities in the hotel industry. From delivering accurate month-end account statements, they also have to focus on the following activities -

  • Budgets
  • Compare profits (between current and past periods)
  • Prepare financial statements, balance sheets
  • Cash flow statements
  • Payroll management
  • Regular monitoring and guidance from our Corporate Finance Controller result in better controlling. Financial statements of each department are vital for hotel owners/management to understand the monetary health of their hotel business. Information such as how your room is priced compared to competitors, or the current month’s profit as compared to the previous month gives deep insights. Generating and procuring all these details without constant guidance, consumes time and involves tremendous effort.
