Bookkeeping notes

What the books look like for Ridgewood businesses like these

Shops and retailers

Point-of-sale totals are matched to deposits, inventory purchases are separated from operating costs, and sales tax is tracked by period. A monthly inventory and gross margin check shows which lines actually pay.

Restaurants and food businesses

Daily sales, tips, delivery-app payouts and card fees all land in the bank differently, so each is reconciled on its own. Food and beverage cost is tracked monthly against sales, and sales tax collected is kept apart from revenue.

Professional offices and consultants

Invoices are matched to payments so open receivables are accurate, client retainers and expenses are kept apart, and owner pay is recorded the same way every month. Monthly reports show real profit after the owner's own costs.

General bookkeeping practice, not tax or legal advice.

Ridgewood businesses file with the same state agencies as the rest of New Jersey: sales tax, quarterly payroll reports, the annual report and 1099-NEC forms. See the New Jersey items we track. We work online, in accounting software you own, so you give us access to the file and your bank and card feeds and get reports and a person to ask each month.

Owners in Ridgewood

Higher-income owner situations

Downtown shop owners and professional practices are common, and many commuters run a side business. Monthly books keep the business side clear when the household income is complicated.

We keep the books and records your tax professional will ask about, including for New Jersey's optional pass-through entity tax (BAIT) if it applies to you; salary, entity and election choices stay with you and your tax professional.
