Bookkeeping Cleanup
“What’s the best way to clean up my books for tax season?”
Book cleanup for tax season often starts with getting the records into one place and checking that bank, credit card, payroll, and sales activity all match the source documents. The right approach usually depends on how long the books have been out of date, whether there are missing receipts or uncategorized transactions, and whether the business uses cash or accrual accounting. It also helps to look for duplicate entries, owner draws, loan activity, and any prior-year items that may have carried forward incorrectly. A clean review process can make the tax return more accurate and reduce surprises later. Working through the specifics with a CPA is the cleanest way to land on the right move.
