Ask about our bookkeeping

How much does monthly bookkeeping cost?

We charge a flat monthly fee for the agreed service. Reconciliations and reporting are included automatically; corporate tax return preparation and tax planning are optional add-ons. Contact us for your monthly quote.

What is included in monthly bookkeeping?

Reconciliations and reporting are included automatically. You can also add corporate tax return preparation, a tax plan, or both.

Who is your monthly bookkeeping service for?

We work with businesses in all industries. Our ideal client is an entrepreneur who currently does their own bookkeeping and sees that outsourcing it would free up time to concentrate on running their business.

Do you work with QuickBooks Online?

Yes. We work inside your QuickBooks file, so you keep full access to your own books.

Can you include my corporate tax return?

Yes. Corporate tax return preparation is available as an optional add-on to monthly bookkeeping. It is not included automatically.

Is tax planning included in the monthly fee?

Tax planning is an optional add-on, rather than part of the standard bookkeeping service. You can choose a tax plan, corporate tax return preparation, or both alongside your monthly bookkeeping.

Do I need to start with a bookkeeping cleanup?

Cleanup is not the default way into our monthly service. We start by discussing your business, current records and monthly bookkeeping needs.

When will I receive my reports?

Reporting is included in the monthly bookkeeping service. We'll confirm the reporting schedule when we agree your service.

What do you need from me to start?

Access to your QuickBooks file, your bank and credit card statements, and a short conversation about how your business runs.

Can I move from doing my own bookkeeping to monthly service?

Yes. Our monthly service is designed for entrepreneurs who do their own books and want to outsource the work so they can focus on running their business.

Do I have to be in St. Augustine?

Our office is at 99 Orange Street downtown. We work with businesses across St. Johns County and Northeast Florida.

Are payroll, sales tax, bills or invoicing included?

Reconciliations and reporting are included automatically. Please ask us to confirm the scope for payroll, sales tax, bills and invoicing.

Monthly bookkeeping that gives you time back

If you are spending your evenings doing the books, it may be time to hand them off. Ancient City Accounting works with entrepreneurs across all industries who want to outsource bookkeeping so they can concentrate on running their business.

Our monthly bookkeeping service includes reconciliations and reporting automatically, for a flat monthly fee. We agree the service with you and confirm the reporting schedule before the work gets underway.

Reconciliations and reporting, included

A bank feed brings transactions into your software. Reconciliation checks the records against your statements and helps identify differences that need attention. Regular reporting gives you a clearer view of the business without doing all of the bookkeeping yourself.

Read about our financial statement preparation and QuickBooks services. If your existing records need attention, you can also learn about bookkeeping cleanup; a cleanup package is not the standard entry point to our monthly service.

Add the tax services your business needs

Corporate tax return preparation and a tax plan can be added to your monthly bookkeeping. These are optional add-ons, rather than automatic inclusions in the bookkeeping fee. You can choose either service, both, or bookkeeping on its own.

The same local firm can support your bookkeeping and the tax services you select. Learn more about tax preparation and tax planning.
