What are the two types of bookkeeping systems?

There are two common types of bookkeeping systems, the single-entry and the double-entry. Both of these systems are acceptable, but you have to decide which will be best for your business. Single-entry bookkeeping is much simpler and best for very small and new businesses. Double-entry is more detailed and reduces errors significantly, especially with numerous transactions.
