What We Do
We are a bookkeeping and payroll company. We are annual PTIN holders with the IRS and a Reporting Agent with the IRS. Rest assured, we are insured! And though we have the credentials to file annual business taxes, at this time we do not offer this service. We will work with your tax accountant of choice, or have wonderful partners to refer you to.
Bookkeeping Isn’t Just Data Entry
The accounting industry is vast, and there are a lot of differences in skill sets.
Bookkeeping is a skill that takes knowledge of tax law and deductions, as well as the comprehend budgets and teach that to owners.
Each expense line corresponds with a tax form line, and if placed in the wrong category, you can lose money. At year end, your tax accountant is not going to drill down on every line of entry, including what their own staff has input. We do. We enter it right the first time, and still do quarterly and year end checks to make sure that when your tax accountant files taxes, you are getting the best bang for your buck on the Profit & Loss and Balance Sheet.
