1. TAX ORGANIZER
- Our Booklets (Tax Organizer)
are arranged to help you organize your information before it is submitted to us. If
you would like to download the booklets from our
Tax
Organizer page,
contact our office
for a username
and password. If you are located in our area and can pick up the booklet at
our office. The cost of the booklet, for new clients, is $5.00, if picked up at our office, or
downloaded from
our website.
However, if you wish to
receive it by mail, the cost is $10.00. If you are a prior year client, you
should have been sent a letter in late December, 2007 or
early January, 2008 with this
information. You may contact our office
at any time.
It is important that you
call or e-mail us with your new address, if you have moved, during the year, so
that you will receive your information in a timely manner. If you wish to have the entire return done, including the business portion, the other forms start at $10.00 per form, depending on complexities. City returns start at $20.00, each. Our charge for Form 8879 (E-File authorization form, which is required for electronic filing) is $15.00. Extensions, done at your specific request, are $5.00. We can do your business portion only, or the entire return (Federal, State, and local returns). We do ALL state returns. There will be an additional charge if you choose to make changes after the return is finished.
Our pricing is based on your data, and the manner in which it is presented to us. Therefore, we expect you to have your data organized, categorized, and totaled, etc. If we have to stop to do bookkeeping on your papers, organize or spend extra time on your account, we will do so, as time allows. An extra charge for the additional time/work involved will be added to your bill. If we have to stop/start your return (because you do not supply us with all of the information needed, etc.), we will charge an interruption cost of a minimum of $10.00 for each occurrence. It is crucial that you use our " Tiernan & Associates Tax Organizer", listed above, so that there are no additional fees associated with interruption charges. The book lists all items of importance and, if filled out correctly, will help to reduce the possibilities of interruption charges.3. OTHER SERVICES OFFERED - Estimated payment vouchers, profit/loss statements, and tax seminars. -top
4. BOOKKEEPING SERVICES - Bookkeeping is typically the most unpleasant component of any business, but we can help! We offer complete bookkeeping service for your business. We have you send to us, on a monthly basis, all your receipts, sales slips, account statements, etc. From this information, we will generate a quarterly Profit and Loss statement for you, and also advise you of the need to make quarterly estimated tax payments. This will allow you to keep in touch with your business, whether your business is making a profit, or loss. This will also eliminate the question, of whether the expenses are deductible or not, by the IRS, and exactly what they are. When you receive the material back form us, it will be in a format that will be ready for, and acceptable to the IRS, if they ever want to look at your books.
If you have an audit, you
will have nothing to fear, your information will be complete.
We provide
this service on a tiered fee system, based on your business level. For $1,
or less, a day you can be assured that
the information that is provided to us is guaranteed in case of any audit.
If you decide to complete your own
bookkeeping please do not throw everything
in a shoebox and hope you have everything.
If the Internal Revenue Service ever sends
you that unpleasant “your return has been
chosen for audit” letter the “shoebox
method” will not work. To
correctly account for your income and
expenses we suggest that you purchase our
expandable file folder system. The “How
to organize your receipts” lists the various
categories that your business may or may not
have. Throughout the year you will put the
receipts you receive in the correct
categories. The advantage of our
expandable file folder system is that it will allow you to
take it with you wherever you go. For most
people once you have a receipt it will end
up in a purse, wallet, the bottom of the
floor of your car, and etc. So to avoid that
problem you simply put the receipts in the
expandable file folder when you have your
receipt. With our system you can rest at
night knowing that your bookkeeping is in
one place, safe, secure, and most important
Correct!
Here is some information about our meant for
that particular expense. Then, at the end of the year, all you have to do is to add
up each category. This eliminates the "SHOE BOX RECEIPT SYNDROME" at the end of the year.
You no longer have to add up the
various receipts in all your shoe boxes where you keep your receipts. They are
all stored in a convenient and safe place where all the expenses are already
listed. It cannot get any easier to organize your bookkeeping receipts. There is a cost of $19.00 if you
purchase it at a seminar, or pick it up at our office. If you choose to
have it sent to you by mail, there is an additional charge of
$5.00 for shipping and handling.
