Tax Preparation
The biggest part of our practice is the preparation of income tax returns for
individuals and small businesses. We are current in our training in all the
changing aspects of tax rules. We use sophisticated, professional software to
prepare high-quality tax returns for individuals, corporations, partnerships,
LLCs, estates and trusts. We offer you a thorough interview, Tax Organizers,
electronic filing, and the experience that goes with having prepared thousands
of returns since 1983.
Accounting Services
We can be the accountant for your business or we can train and oversee you in
doing your own accounting. We can prepare your financial statements and help
you understand what they mean - to you and to others. We can make all your
accounting entries for you, or review and adjust your own entries monthly or
quarterly - whatever you prefer. We customize a solution that's right for each
client.
Bookkeeping/Write-Up
We can set up a manual or computer-based accounting system for your
business, or we can maintain one for you. We set up and maintain the majority
of our clients on Intuit's QuickBooks software. Other clients who prefer simpler
solutions are set up on Intuit's new Simple Start or manual systems. Thorough
training is also available with fast-response telephone and/or e-mail support.
Business Start-up Services
We'll help you select the form of organization that's right for you, then help you
form it. We'll file all the necessary registrations with the various state and
Federal agencies, get all ID numbers and authorizations, set up your books and
records and train you in maintaining them. Then we'll be there for you, by phone
or email, with a fast response when you need one.
Consulting Services
We provide a wide range of consulting services to our clients including financial
analyses, computer training and investment advice. Call us with your specific
needs.
Payroll Services
From start to finish we will help you set up your payroll and maintain it yourself,
or we'll do everything for you. We will explain when you need a payroll and when
you don't. We can process your paychecks, prepare all your quarterly and
annual payroll tax returns and make sure you don't get hit with those expensive
payroll-related penalties.
Selecting a Form of Organization
This is a difficult and important decision when starting a new venture. The
choices are many: S corporation, C corporation, LLC, Sole Proprietorship,
Partnership. We'll help you understand the differences and pick the one that's
right for you.
Setting up your Accounting System
We will set up a PC-based accounting system for you in QuickBooks. If you
prefer, we can also set up a manual system. After set-up we will maintain it for
you or show you how to do it yourself. Besides the basic system, we will explain
the concepts of good accounting to you and show you all the other things you
need to know in order to avoid or survive audits, and make sure that you
capture all possible tax advantages to which you are entitled.
Tax Planning
As part of our income tax preparation services, our interview with you will
assure that you are not caught unaware of tax planning opportunities or pitfalls.
Good tax preparation includes a consideration of the coming year, not just the
past one! We give you that.
