Accounting Services
Our Northern Virginia CPA firm offers local businesses a range of accounting, tax and consulting services to help solve difficult problems and ultimately thrive financially. Our unique service package provides comprehensive exposure to a core suite of services a small business owner needs.
Accounting and Bookkeeping
You will likely have accounting questions throughout the year as various transactions arise. Our service includes accounting support year-round to help you ensure that you are properly recording your transactions from an accounting perspective. You will need two core financial statements in order to properly track your business, to conduct tax planning, to accurately prepare your tax returns, and for a variety of other matters. Our service will enable you to track your Income Statement/Profit & Loss and your Balance Sheet. We will also help you interpret the numbers so you can actually use your financials to understand, operate, and improve your business.
Outsourced CFO
We provide small businesses financial leadership as your business's Chief Financial Officer to help you increase revenue and profits. In this way, we transcend traditional accounting services to provide you with ongoing strategic advice. Most small businesses want a CFO to provide financial management but they don’t have the budget to pay for a full-time dedicated CFO or controller. We fill this gap to provide businesses with the financial advice they need in an outsourced model which can be done part-time at a fraction of the cost. We partner with you and become a member of your management team to help you achieve your business goals, faster.
Small Business Consulting
We help you find meaning and insights in your numbers so you can make smart, strategic decisions. Simply put, we help our clients run their businesses better. We strive to optimize every facet of the financial management of your business including strategic business planning, cash flow management, tax strategy, marketing strategy, payroll, financial planning, and much more. You benefit from our hard-won industry expertise which is achieved only after working with hundreds of clients over many years. On an ongoing basis, we meet to review your financials, provide tax planning insights, discuss our observations, and answer your questions.
QuickBooks Consulting
In our experience, without professional guidance, QuickBooks has the potential to make clients "dangerous." QuickBooks must be setup properly and maintained properly on an ongoing basis in order to accrue benefits from the software. Otherwise, "QuickBooks" can quickly turn into "QuickMess." Since the integrity of your financial statements from QuickBooks impact both your tax planning and tax returns, it becomes extremely important to ensure your Books are in good shape. Our service includes ongoing year-round QuickBooks consulting and periodic QuickBooks "health checkups" to help you manage your internal accounting system.
New Business Advisory
We help with entity selection decisions, tax consulting, and business formation issues to get you started on the right track. We help you answer the critical questions that are necessary for a successful business launch and alert you to issues you may not have considered so you can avoid potential traps. Our objective is to gain an in-depth familiarity of your business goals during a kick-off consultation where we will discuss a variety of accounting, tax, and business matters as they relate to your business and to you individually. We can also provide you with initial training on how to start using QuickBooks in your business successfully from day one.
Payroll Services
Depending upon your goals, you may need to hire additional people and employ them in your business. If you have an S-corporation, C-corporation, or a Professional Service Corporation, you will need to be on the payroll as well to draw a reasonable salary. Payroll tax compliance is complicated, frequent, and ongoing. The IRS is very aggressive with respect to collection matters relating to payroll taxes. We will provide you with consulting and help you get setup with a professional payroll processing company to efficiently manage and successfully outsource your payroll. Our strategic partners include all of the largest payroll processing companies in the U.S.
