ABOUT
10 years of tax experience, working for you and your family
Small business owners have enough on their plate to worry about balancing their company’s books. We take care of managing your company’s books so you can get back to running your day-to-day operations and generating revenue. Monthly or quarterly reporting is available with the following services:
- Reconcile your bank account.
- Generate an income statement.
- Prepare a balance sheet.
- Manage your general ledger.
These services will provide an excellent foundation for your business to make important and strategic decisions by having the most up-to-date and accurate numbers available regularly.
As licensed Certified Public Accountants (CPA), our firm is able to render an opinion on financial statements for your company. An audit provides the highest level of assurance for financial statements.
Our firm will review internal controls, perform testing on selected account balances, and perform verification of select accounts with various third parties. Based on our procedures, we will issue a report on whether the financial statements are fairly stated and in accordance with US GAAP or IFRS and free of material misstatements. We also provide review services for financial statements which provides limited assurance compared to audited financial statements.
Our work includes performing analytical procedures and inquiries of your company’s management. Based on our findings we will issue a report that will express limited assurance on the financial statements and whether they are free of material modifications required to be in accordance with US GAAP or IFRS. We also can perform compilation engagements which involve providing no assurance for financial statements due to the financial statements being a representation from management in which no opinion is given. Unlike an audit or review, compilations do not involve inquiries of management or analytical procedures. The financial statements are checked by our firm for obvious errors and prepared in accordance with professional standards.
Which type of service your company may need will vary according to bank lending covenants or other regulatory agencies, please feel free to schedule an appointment to discuss what services are best for your company based on budgetary needs or legal requirements. Our firm also has experience providing agreed-upon procedure reporting for companies that have CPA reporting requirements from various third parties such as government agencies or third parties with whom your company is conducting business.

Let Us Help:
Dear Friend,
I have a feeling I know why you’re reading this right now.
You need more time in your day. Running a business is extremely demanding, and there just isn’t enough time in the day to keep all the plates from spinning out of control. And what you need most right now is more proactive help with your business finances and tax strategy. As soon as possible. In fact, yesterday would have been ideal. Am I close?
We get it. We’ve worked with plenty of businesses who have to cobble together 9 different software programs to keep everything straight, or who just wash their hands of it all and put everything on the credit card … and then try to clean up every year after the fact. And they know that this is no way to properly monitor profit margins, cash controls, account management, tax strategy and all of the myriad components of an effective financial system for a business.
Perhaps this is your story too. Or perhaps you’ve reached a stage of development in your business that you want to pass the baton of accounting to another expert team so your expert team can focus on what they do best: making sales and taking care of customers.
Or are you just starting your business and want to start things off on the right foot?
Whatever the reason, we want you to know that our team has been diligently and effectively taking care of the accounting needs of countless organizations in a wide variety of industries since YEAR FOUNDED—discreetly and expertly handling the ongoing financial management of tax burdens, payroll, bookkeeping, and other comprehensive accounting services while providing expertise in business planning, coaching, and strategic consulting that many businesses need.
Because here’s a certain truth as it relates to taxes and your business: the State and Federal Government would love to have more of your business’ hard-earned money in their accounts. And yes, even though it’s painful, none of us begrudge paying our legal and fair share of taxes. But the problem is that regular business owners, like you, are missing out on legal and safe deductions, to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars in unclaimed refunds every year.
It doesn’t have to be this way. You don’t have to hand more dollars over to the government than they require, just because you don’t know their rules as well as they do. You don’t have to live in a constant state of anxiety over the state of your books, feeling guilty about the time you should be devoting to keeping your business profitable.
In fact, to help you find answers to your questions, I’ve compiled some resources in the last couple of years, for business people like you, in response to the specific tax and accounting questions I’ve received from my clients.
