Being
a small business owner is not easy. Let Denny Yuen, CGA, the small business
accounting specialist, show you how to improve your bottom line and financial
health of your company while minimizing your tax bill.
Whether you are an incorporated business or
a sole proprietorship, our firm offers the specific services required of
a small business. Most, if not all, of our clients require financial statements
prepared on a compilation or review engagement basis, corporate and personal
tax planning, bookkeeping services and financial consulting.
Compilation Engagements
Compilation engagements are appropriate
when the financial statements are used by only a limited number of people.
Financial statements are simply compiled from information provided by
the client and no attempt by the accountant is made to verify the accuracy
or completeness of such information. Compilation engagements are mostly
prepared when the users are only management and Canada Custom and Revenue
Agency (CCRA).
Review Engagements
Review engagements are appropriate
when a moderate level of assurance is required on the financial statements
and that these statements are free from material misstatement. Under this
engagement, the role of the accountant is to acquire sufficient knowledge
of the small business and to make informed enquiries, comparison and assessment
of all relevant information. Review engagements are mostly required by
organizations that have some form of financing from their financial institution.
Corporate and Personal Tax
Every small business requires the filing
of their return for CCRA. The deadline for filing the company’s tax return
will depend on whether the business is incorporated or a sole proprietorship.
As part of the preparation of the financial statements for an incorporated
business, we will also file with CCRA your T2 corporate tax return. If
your company is a sole proprietorship, we will file your return on your
T1 personal tax return by April 30th of the following year. Evading tax
is illegal and when it comes to tax planning, our goal is to minimize
your tax bill within the legalities of the Income Tax Act.
Bookkeeping
Being an owner/manager requires a huge
commitment of time and resources. Many of our clients don’t even have
the time for bookkeeping and would rather have us deal with their endless
paperwork. We offer bookkeeping services such as remitting the Goods and
Services Tax (GST), Workers Compensation (WCB), Social Service Tax (PST),
payroll deductions for CCRA and payroll for employees. Why bother with
the headaches of numbers when you can leave it to us and do what you are
best at?
Financial Consulting
Whether you own a business or not, many clients
often require other financial consulting services all year round for themselves
and their families. To meet their needs, we offer consulting services
such as personal financial planning and investment planning. |
