Business Tax

Collect

Our employees collect all documents necessary for tax preparation. Whether you utilize an accounting system or prefer not to, we begin by reviewing your financial records. We identify and correct errors in all collected files. If you do not use a standard system, we use your bank and credit card statements to prepare your financial report.

Evaluate

After reviewing your statements, we look for potential tax deductions applicable to your business. It is important to us that you gain a strong understanding of your business and of the areas that contain possible deductions. With this in mind, you can plan your taxing practice more effectively for the following year.

Review

Once your tax return is prepared, we will review it with you to make sure you have a full understanding of tax calculations. The objective is to gain an awareness of lawful IRS tax incentives to decrease tax liability in the future. We keep our office open all year round in order to assist you with any follow up questions or concerns.
