Our Services

Thank you for inquiring about our accounting and consulting services. Upon your acceptance of our standard engagement letter and payment of the required retainer fee (50% of estimated cost of project), we will welcome you on board! We believe our firm provides cost effective & personalized service. When you come on board, we will all be members of the same team working to navigate you through the stormy seas of taxation. There are two methods that we use to bill for our services. Please find listed below a description of billing methods that will best suit your needs:

INDIVIDUAL ACCOUNTING, CONSULTING, & TAX PREPARATION

BILL BY FORM - If we receive your information with a completed Tax organizer and you require no additional analysis, research, tax planning or consulting services, then you may be eligible to use the bill by form method of billing. See minimum fee schedule.

PROFESSIONAL HOURLY RATES - If you turn in an incomplete Tax organizer or your account requires additional tax planning, consulting services, research and analysis work, then you will be billed at our professional hourly rates. The benefit that you will receive from this method is with our extensive knowledge applied to your specific situation; we may be able to help you keep more money in your pocket instead of paying it to the IRS.

BUSINESS ACCOUNTING, CONSULTING, & TAX PREPARATION

RATES PER FORM - Billing by form can be performed when you provide us with your complete detailed general ledger. This billing does not include write-up (entering checks or deposits). However, it does include tying your prior year account balances along with current year transactions to the tax return. There is certain analysis work performed on each account. During the preparation of forms and analysis of accounts, it may be evident that there are certain problems that are occurring within your accounting system. We will bring these to your attention, for correction by you or by us. This will result in additional charges based on our hourly fees.

PROFESSIONAL HOURLY RATES - Due to the fact that each business situation is unique, some businesses may require more detailed attention than others. We recommend that when you bring your information to our office, that you consult with our qualified accountants to specify the accounting, analysis and research needs of your business entity. These services will be billed according to our professional rates.

MINIMUM FEE SCHEDULE FOR BUSINESS TAX RETURNS

Tax form preparation charges for business tax returns will vary depending on the yearly total of transactions (deposits & checks) that occur in your business. These fees are the fees associated with the preparations of the new business tax returns from your complete and accurate general ledger. There are initial first year fees necessary for general ledger and tax set up.
