Bookkeeping

Bookkeeping for any organization.

Up-to-date books in QuickBooks Online or Xero, completed and reviewed by a CPA.
For owner-managed companies, non-profits and societies, and organizations audited by another firm.

What's included

The day-to-day, handled.

Monthly bookkeeping

Transactions categorized, and bank and credit card accounts reconciled, every month — not reconstructed at year-end.

Reports you can read

Monthly financial reports in plain language, so you always know where the organization stands.

Setup & cleanup

Moving to a cloud platform, or catching up books that have fallen behind — we'll get them current and keep them that way.

Sales tax tracking

GST/HST tracked as you go, so returns are straightforward when they're due.

Year-end ready

Books organized so year-end goes smoothly — whether your accountant, your board, or your auditor is next in line.

Reviewed by a CPA

Every file is completed and reviewed by a CPA before it goes out — not just entered and filed.

Who it's for

Open to every kind of organization.

Owner-managed businesses

Companies of any size and in any industry that want reliable books without hiring in-house.

Nonprofits & societies

Well-organized books that make board reporting and year-end simpler, with clear records of where the money went.

Organizations audited by another firm

Every file is completed and reviewed by a CPA before it goes out. We work alongside your external auditor so year-end goes smoothly.

Guide

Bookkeeping that keeps you ready for anything.

Good bookkeeping isn't just data entry. It's what makes GST returns routine, year-end quick, lenders comfortable and decisions easier, because the numbers are current when you need them.

QuickBooks Online or Xero?

We work with both. The right choice usually depends on the apps you already use, how many people need access and what your industry needs, such as job costing for contractors or class tracking for non-profits. If you're already on one, there's usually no need to switch.

Why monthly beats annual

When books are only updated at year-end, errors are harder to find, GST can be missed and you're making decisions without current numbers. A monthly routine catches problems while they're still small.

Catching up books that have fallen behind

If your books are months or years behind, we start from the last point where everything reconciled, work forward with bank and card statements, correct GST/HST and then keep things current. We'll tell you upfront what we need and roughly how long it will take.

Non-profits and societies

Under BC's Societies Act, directors must present financial statements at each annual general meeting. Clear books make that simple and help track restricted funds and grant spending. Registered charities also file a T3010 information return within six months of year-end, which is much easier when the books are organized.

Working alongside your auditor

If another firm audits your financial statements, we keep your books audit-ready: reconciliations, supporting schedules and documents prepared in advance. We don't perform audits, but we work with partner firms that do and can introduce you.
