Tomorrow is the first day of the secular new year of 2020.  A whole new decade.  Which means you probably have to reassess all those New Year’s Resolutions you’ve been running through in your mind.    (I make my personal resolutions in September/October, when the Jewish New Year rolls around.  And, my corporate KPI [key performance indicators] are evaluated three or four times a year to make sure we’re measuring (and achieving) the right things.)

Financials are just a blip in time…

I know most of you run your companies on a cash basis.  Your gross is small enough that the IRS does not require you to run accrued financials, which are more difficult to maintain.  But, it would behoove most firms to check their positions using accrued financials every once in a while.
