Answer / g.ravi
Bookkeeping (also book-keeping or book keeping) is the
recording of all financial transactions undertaken by an
individual or organization (including a corporation or
legal person). Bookkeeping is "keeping records of what is
bought, sold, owed, and owned; what money comes in, what
goes out, and what is left." Bookkeeping is part of the
accounting cycle, and bookkeepers' work is closely related
to that of accountants.
