How much do we charge?

     The question asked the most often.  We appreciate then concern due to why it is asked.  The answer is "it depends".

     If you are thinking about becoming a new client, we will perform a general review of your prior year tax returns at no charge!  In addition if you own or operate a business, we offer, in addition to the review of your returns, a free initial appointment to meet, address and discuss your questions, comments and issues.  We always stress it is almost impossible to give an exact price without first having an opportunity to review your information.  We are delighted to review your information and give you a no cost or obligation fee estimate before we begin!

     More specifically, our fees for our professional services are set and based upon our time and out-of-pocket expenses we incur to professionally prepare your information. This is a tough question to answer here on this web page for one reason, no two clients are exactly the same. Depending upon your level of organization and depth of need, fees range accordingly.

     First and foremost, we feel business should begin with a handshake first, not an invoice! Therefore, we have always offered an absolutely free, no obligation appointment to meet with us to see if we have a mutual desire to proceed. We are not right for everyone, nor is every client right for us. 

     We strive to have only long-term professional relationships. Also, we have never attempted to be the most inexpensive. If that is your sole determining factor, there are others, including the run-of-the-mill tax prep houses and others, who cut corners, have constant employee turnover, have little concern for quality and do not understand the concept of "professionalism" or "confidentiality". 

     In our commitment to provide the highest quality professional services, we utilize a computer in our activities as much as possible. A computer is a valuable tool which allows us the ability to provide prompt services to our clients. Therefore, "billable" hours are decreased which saves you money and allows us to utilize the multitude of computerized financial tools available. The result is less time on our part, less money spent on your part and overall better informed clients. 

     Furthermore, we strive to provide our clients with prompt, professional and confidential financial services. Our clients are provided with not only the vital financial and business information needed to make intelligent personal and business decisions, but the information needed to satisfy various governmental reporting requirements. We consider our client's part of our "professional" family and work hard to exceed their expectations.

     We offer our services to a very diverse group of clients. We not only assist individuals, but we work with many different business clients. We support many small to medium size business clients. Our client base ranges from individuals, manufacturers, retail sales entities, wholesalers, non-profit groups and service entities. Our clients are located from Pennsylvania to China (and everywhere in between).
