Why do I need to Hire a Bookkeeper?

A Bookkeeper will be able to produce a Profit and Loss Statement, create and maintain a Budget, project your financial situation, keep your records current and prepare you for your taxes.

I want you to ask yourself these questions:

1.     Do you have a current Profit and Loss Statement?

2.     Is your bank account reconciliation current?

3.     Do you have a Budget?

4.     Can you compare last year’s numbers to this year’s numbers?

5.     Do you know how your Profit and Loss Statement is going to affect your 2012 Taxes?

If you have answered No to any of the above questions, you need to give us a call (619-726-1158) to set up a free consultation.

Here is another question for you…for those who have a Bookkeeper…. Is your Bookkeeper a family member, or a family friend?  Although is it nice to help out a family member or a friend of the family, can they properly answer all 5 of the above questions?

Question #5 is the most important question above.  If you or your Bookkeeper cannot answer that question, then you need to give us a call (619-726-1158) for a free consultation.

At Piña Business Services, “Where Bookkeeping is like a Puzzle” we can answer that question for you.  We understand the dynamics of your Profit and Loss Statement, and how it will affect your 2012 Taxes.

What is Piña Business Services?

Hello and Welcome to Piña Business Services Bookkeeping and Tax Blog!

My name is Gabriel J. Piña and I started a Bookkeeping and Tax business in 2007 to provide a service for small to medium size businesses.  Providing Bookkeeping and Tax Services to Self Employed, Corporations and Non-Profits alike over the last 5 years have been a great joy.

My company slogan “Bookkeeping is like a Puzzle, do you know where to put all the pieces?” this is how I look at your company: A puzzle.  Every puzzle is unique in its own way.  My goal is to show you how your company is doing on a weekly, monthly or quarterly basis, and to show you how it will impact your yearly tax return.

There are many facets to provide a Bookkeeping service, and a lot of it depends on you the client.  The basic of Bookkeeping is creating a Profit and Loss statement based on your receipts and Bank Statements.  This will tell you if you are profitable or not, as well as where you spent your money.  To take it to the next level we look at a yearly budget, and categorizing your income and expense to specific categories (as you can see in the example below, the Job Workshop had a net income of $1,850, while the business as a whole had a net income of $21,150), and we look at your budget on a monthly basis to see if you are spending more or less then you budgeted. 

           

                        Income

                                    Sales                                      $25,000

                                    Job Workshop                       $  2,000

                        Total Income                                      $27,000

                        Expenses

                                    Advertising                             $     500

                                    Office Supplies                      $     200

                                        Job Workshop Supplies   $     150

Rent                                        $  5,000

                                    Total Expenses                                 $  5,850

                                    Net Profit                                            $21,150

                                               

Other facets of Bookkeeping Services are but not limited to: Bank and Credit Card Reconciliation, Financial Statements, Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable, and Sales Tax Reporting. 

On a quarterly basis, I analyze your Profit and Loss Statement and your Balance Sheet and come up with a report of your self employment taxes and income tax for the following year.  If you pay quarterly estimated taxes, you are more than likely paying off of your last year tax return, instead of paying off of actual numbers.  Which means you can still be underpaying or overpaying, either way, wouldn’t you rather pay off of actual numbers?

 

I have an office in Santee and am mobile throughout the San Diego County. 

Piña Business Services was named Santee’s Favorite Tax Preparer by the Santee Patch in April of 2012.
