Accounting services refer primarily to after-the-fact posting of cash receipts, cash disbursements, or payroll.

Reasonable Fees
Our accounting services are quoted as monthly or quarterly fees. The amounts are based upon the number and complexity of transactions to be posted. An hourly rate of $70 is used to quote these fees. The exact nature of the service depends on your needs.

• If you are not comfortable keeping a set of books, this service can provide you with the accurate financial statements to monitor your business during the year, support tax reporting requirements, and enable year-end tax planning.
• If you are able to keep a basic set of books, but need assistance to monitor the quality of the resulting financial statements, we can provide that periodic service as well.

Accessibility Options
As a member of the QuickBooks® ProAdvisor Program we are firmly convinced that this popular accounting software offers the small business owner with an easy to use package that can be tailored to their needs. Our access to your QuickBooks® file can accomplished in many ways.

• QuickBooks® File – Providing us with your “live” file (or using a file maintained only by us), permits us to post all of your transactions after-the-fact. This file or printed financial statements are returned for your review and analysis.
• Accountant’s Copy – Providing us with an Accountant’s Copy of your QuickBooks® file enables us to review your postings and make necessary adjustments while you continue to post daily transactions. Our adjustments are later merged with your file.
• On-line Edition – We can both access your QuickBooks® file from any location to review or record transactions. This eliminates the need for file transfers and provides you with access while away from your office.
• Remote Access – Your QuickBooks® file is accessed from my computer (limited access as permitted by you) to review your postings and make necessary adjustments.

Financial Statements
Standard financial statements can be compiled for your use only or to satisfy the requirements of lenders. These are not audited or reviewed financial statements, but do present your information in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Payroll and Sales Tax Returns
Professional preparation of quarterly and year-end payroll tax returns gives you the comfort that you are in compliance both Federal and State requirements, avoiding unnecessary and costly penalties.
Preparation of sales tax returns is often viewed as routine. However, a well-documented audit trail is essential preparation for a future state audit.
