What goes into a quote

Two businesses with the same revenue can need very different amounts of bookkeeping. These are the things that actually move the price:

  • How many transactions you have each month
  • How many bank, credit card and loan accounts there are to reconcile
  • Whether you have employees, and how often you run payroll
  • How often you file GST
  • For catch-up work: how many months are behind, and how messy they are
  • How organized your receipts are (an app helps a lot)
  • Which software you use now, and whether we’re moving you to QuickBooks Online
  • Which add-ons you need on top, like invoicing, slips or year-end

How I quote

Catch-up work starts from $250 per month of records. I confirm the quote after a free review of your books, so you know the cost before I start. If I find something along the way that I didn’t expect, like a whole account nobody mentioned, I’ll tell you before going further.

Monthly bookkeeping starts from $300/month, and add-ons and additional work start from $50/hour. Each quote is confirmed after the review, based on the factors above.

Questions about pricing

Is the review of my books really free?

Yes. It’s a look at where your books are and what you need. There’s no charge and no obligation to go ahead.

Why are the prices “starting from”?

Because a sole proprietor with one bank account and a contractor with three trucks, four employees and quarterly GST need very different amounts of work. The starting prices show where things begin. Your quote is confirmed after a free review of your books, so it fits your business.

Can I start with just a catch-up project?

Yes. Some owners have their books caught up and then carry on themselves. Others move on to monthly bookkeeping. The catch-up is priced on its own either way.

How do you charge?

Catch-up work starts from $250 per month of records, monthly bookkeeping from $300/month, and add-ons and additional work from $50/hour. Your quote is confirmed after a free review of your books, before any work starts.

What if my books turn out to be messier than we thought?

I’ll tell you what I found and explain what it means for the work before I go further.
