Small Business Accounting and Bookkeeping for Southern California

CPA-managed bookkeeping for Southern California businesses where the complexity justifies direct oversight. For smaller or simpler bookkeeping needs, we refer to our trusted bookkeeper network. Reconstruction and cleanup projects handled at CPA rates with a flat-fee quote.

CPA-Managed Monthly Bookkeeping

For qualifying engagements, we manage the bookkeeping directly — every transaction categorized, reconciled, and reviewed before monthly close. For simpler needs, we refer to our trusted bookkeeper network.

Financial Statement Preparation

Monthly profit and loss statement, balance sheet, and cash flow statement presented in a format you can actually understand and use to make business decisions.

Bank and Credit Card Reconciliation

Every account reconciled every month, catching errors, detecting fraud early, and maintaining the accuracy your tax return and loan applications depend on.

CPA Review and Advisory

Your books are not just processed, they are reviewed by a licensed CPA who flags issues, identifies opportunities, and provides monthly commentary on your financial position.

Year-End Tax Coordination

Your books are prepared with tax season in mind from day one so year-end closes quickly without the scramble that costs most businesses thousands in rush accounting fees.

QuickBooks Setup and Training

We set up your QuickBooks or cloud accounting system correctly from the start and train your team to use it effectively between our monthly review cycles.

Most bookkeeping services deliver data entry. We deliver insight. When Alex reviews your monthly financials, you get a CPA's perspective on what the numbers mean — not just whether the accounts reconcile. Bookkeeping engagements at this firm are structured for clients where the complexity, the tax implications, or the planning opportunities justify CPA-managed oversight. For smaller or simpler bookkeeping needs, we refer directly to our trusted bookkeeper network — they bill the client directly, and we remain available as the tax CPA.

What Is Included

Bookkeeping and Accounting — How It Works

CPA-Managed Monthly Bookkeeping

For qualifying engagements, we manage the bookkeeping directly — every transaction categorized, reconciled, and reviewed by Alex before the monthly close. Clean books, every month, IRS-ready at any point in the year.

Monthly Financial Statements

Profit and loss statement, balance sheet, and cash flow statement delivered monthly in a format you can actually use to make business decisions — not just a data export from accounting software.

Bank and Credit Card Reconciliation

Every account reconciled every month, catching errors early, detecting irregularities, and maintaining the accuracy your tax return and any financing applications depend on.

Bookkeeper Referrals

For clients whose bookkeeping needs are simpler or whose budget does not support CPA-managed oversight, we refer directly to our trusted bookkeeper network. They bill you directly and we stay available as your tax CPA.

Year-End Tax Coordination

Books prepared with tax season in mind from day one — so year-end closes quickly and cleanly without the last-minute scramble that costs businesses in rush fees and missed deductions.

Reconstruction and Cleanup

When existing books need cleanup before a return can be prepared, we handle it as a flat-fee project — after a diagnostic review to scope the work accurately before committing to a price.

Who We Serve

Is This Right for You?

Growing Businesses Needing CPA OversightWith complex transactions, multiple revenue streams, or inventory — where bookkeeping decisions have direct tax implications and benefit from a CPA reviewing the work monthly
Real Estate Investors and LLCsWith rental income, depreciation tracking, and entity distributions that need to be properly categorized for both bookkeeping and tax purposes simultaneously
Businesses Needing CleanupWith books in poor condition from prior years — missed reconciliations, misclassified transactions, or bank accounts that have never been reconciled — who need a clean starting point for current-year tax preparation
Business Owners Who Want ReferralsWith simpler bookkeeping needs that do not justify CPA-rate oversight — we connect them directly with reliable bookkeepers in our network rather than turning them away
Common Questions

FAQ

For CPA-managed ongoing bookkeeping, engagements generally start at $3,000 per month — reflecting the complexity and CPA oversight involved. For simpler needs, we refer to our bookkeeper network where billing is handled directly between you and the bookkeeper.
When existing books are in poor condition and a tax return cannot be prepared without cleanup, we scope the project with a diagnostic review first. After the diagnostic, we provide a flat-fee quote. Reconstruction is billed at CPA rates because our signature attaches to the tax return that relies on the corrected books.
Yes. We work with QuickBooks Online and QuickBooks Desktop as the primary accounting platforms, and also with Xero. We can set up your accounting system correctly from the start and provide training on how to maintain it between our monthly reviews.
