Single bank account for both personal and business use, it's crucial to differentiate transactions.

To record personal transactions, categorize them as "Personal Withdrawals" or "Personal Expenses" in a separate section within financial records. Avoid mixing personal and business expenses and maintain clear separation. Record personal income as "Personal Deposits." Regularly reconcile the account.
