Clean books, then a clean return.
A 1120S drawn from a shaky ledger is a problem waiting to surface. We keep your books monthly, fix what's there once, or rebuild a year from scratch — then file the return on top of numbers that hold up.
Three ways we handle books.
Monthly bookkeeping — from $240/mo
We reconcile your bank, card, and clearing accounts every month and deliver your profit and loss statement and balance sheet by the 10th. By the time March comes around, your books are already closed and your 1120S is a short step away.
Books cleanup — one-time
For ledgers that haven't been touched in months. We re-categorize transactions, repair opening balances, and close out the prior periods so the year is actually filable. Priced per job once we've seen the state of things.
Accounting catch-up — per period
For books that need rebuilding from the ground up. More on the catch-up page.
Why it matters for your return.
The IRS doesn't care that your bookkeeping was rushed. If the numbers on your 1120S can't be traced back to clean records, an audit becomes a much worse afternoon than it needs to be. Getting the books right first is the cheapest insurance there is, and it's why we won't file a return we don't trust the inputs for.
How it's priced.
Monthly bookkeeping starts at $240/month. Cleanup is quoted per job, because every neglected ledger is a different amount of work, and we'd rather look before quoting than guess high. You approve the price before we start. No open-ended hourly meter running in the background.
Bundle and save
If you need both books and a return, the 1120S + Bookkeeping bundle at $2,195/year keeps your books monthly all year and files your 1120S in March, for 15–20% less than booking the two separately. Books cleanup, if your starting point needs it, is priced on top.
S-Corp return
Federal 1120S, K-1s, one state. Reasonable-comp review included. From $895.
