How is Finance & Accounting for SaaS Companies Different?
As a SaaS (Software as a Service) company, your subscription models are key for revenue generation. You need to record your earnings accurately over the length of your contracts and credit your accounts appropriately. You also have maintenance fees, as well as upgrades and downgrades of subscriptions.
When it comes time to pay taxes, you also need to comply with local, state, regional, and often international
tax regulatory compliance. Above all, you need more than traditional Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) accounting reports, you also need to forecast metrics for your services. SaaS expert accountants can provide you with financial reports for current earnings, cash flow, your balance sheet, and your projected subscription growth as well as other important metrics like CAC (Customer Acquisition Cost), LTV (LifeTime Value), and more.
