James R. Hurley, CPA Founder & President, JRH & Associates Frequently Asked Questions
Bookkeeping is the monthly recording work: reconciliations, sales and deposits, disbursements, and the payroll and sales tax filings that go with them. Accounting builds on those records with financial statements, analysis, entity guidance, and strategic consulting. Many clients use both together, which keeps one team responsible for the whole financial picture from daily records to year-end strategy.
Yes. We regularly act as the accounting layer above an owner or staff member who handles the daily entries. We review the books, correct classification issues, prepare financial statements, and handle the tax planning and compliance, so your in-house person has an experienced CPA team behind them.
Yes. Entity selection is one of the most consequential early decisions a business owner makes, affecting self-employment tax, liability, and how you pay yourself. We evaluate your specific situation and handle the full setup, including incorporation filings, your EIN, sales tax vendor registration, and state employer accounts.
Typically a monthly or quarterly package with an income statement, balance sheet, trial balance, and general ledger, tailored to what your business actually needs. If you are seeking financing, we prepare the compiled statements lenders expect. The goal is that you always know where the business stands without having to ask.
It depends on scope, and we are up front about it. Our services are tailored to and priced for small and medium-sized businesses, and every engagement starts with a free consultation where we review your situation and quote the work before anything begins. Call (516) 794-5752 to schedule.
