Small Business Accounting
Not only does Slater & Rutherford handle taxes for small businesses, but we also offer monthly or quarterly accounting services (termed “Maintenance Services”). Taking on the day-to-day burden of the accounting allows business owners to concentrate on their operations and continued progress. Being involved in the regular accounting routine allows our accountants and managers to stay ahead of tax planning opportunities and tax law changes as they arise.
For “maintenance services” we offer monthly or quarterly services that can include data entry, bill paying, deposits, sales tax return preparation, payroll processing, reconciliations, monthly financial statements, adjustments and review, tax planning and filing your annual tax returns. We charge a flat monthly fee for maintenance services.
