FAQ
Tampa questions
Do you work with businesses in Tampa, FL?
Yes, online, from our desk in Cranford, New Jersey. We do not have an office in Tampa.
What does bookkeeping look like for an owner in Tampa?
Each month we categorize and reconcile, record owner pay the same way every time and track estimated tax set-asides, then hand over reports a tax professional can work from. The article gives $39,602 median household income (2006); that describes the place, not a particular household.
What is different about bookkeeping for a health practice?
Insurance payments, patient payments and write-offs are reconciled separately, so receivables are never guessed. Payroll, supplies and equipment financing are tracked monthly. We work from your accounting records and never need patient clinical information.
What do Florida businesses file?
The Florida Department of Revenue lists a 6% general state sales tax rate. Returns are filed for every reporting period, even when no tax is due, and are late after the 20th of the month following the period. We confirm your own filing frequency on your Department of Revenue account.
How much does it cost?
Monthly bookkeeping starts at $450 for the smallest tier and rises with transaction volume. We confirm a written quote before starting.
