Our services may include transaction classification, bank reconciliation, credit card reconciliation, monthly data entry, bookkeeping cleanup, financial reports, and preparation of records for tax filing.

WHO WE SUPPORT

Bookkeeping Help for New, Growing and Established Businesses

Bookkeeping support can help business owners who do not have time to maintain records, have fallen behind, or need better monthly reporting.

Small Businesses

Small businesses may need recurring bookkeeping to keep transactions categorized, accounts reconciled, and records ready for tax preparation.

Self-Employed Professionals

Freelancers, contractors, consultants, and sole proprietors may need help separating business and personal transactions and organizing income and expenses.

Startups and New Businesses

New businesses may need support setting up a chart of accounts, organizing bank activity, recording startup expenses, and creating a repeatable bookkeeping routine.

Growing Businesses

Businesses with increasing sales, expenses, payroll, loans, or multiple bank accounts may need more frequent bookkeeping and monthly reporting.

Businesses With Overdue Books

Catch-up or cleanup bookkeeping may be useful when several months or years are incomplete, accounts do not reconcile, or transactions were classified incorrectly.

Businesses Preparing for Tax Filing

Tax preparation is often easier when books are reconciled, income is recorded, expenses are categorized, and supporting documents are available.

OUR BOOKKEEPING SERVICES

Recurring Bookkeeping and Financial Record Support

Use accordion items or stacked service blocks for the services below.

Income and Expense Categorization

Business transactions are reviewed and assigned to suitable bookkeeping categories based on the records and explanations supplied.

Transactions that are unclear may require supporting documents or client confirmation.

Business Bank Account Reconciliation

Bank reconciliation compares bookkeeping records with bank statements to identify missing entries, duplicates, timing differences, or unexplained transactions.

Business Credit Card Reconciliation

Credit card reconciliation compares recorded expenses and payments with the monthly card statement.

This can help identify missing charges, duplicate entries, personal expenses, and unpaid balances.

Recurring Bookkeeping Entry

Depending on the business activity and agreed service schedule, bookkeeping records may be updated weekly or monthly.

Only state weekly service if Anchor can supply it consistently.

Customer Invoice and Payment Tracking

Accounts receivable records can help a business track customer invoices, payments received, outstanding balances, and overdue amounts.

Confirm whether Anchor creates and sends invoices or only maintains the accounting records.

Vendor Bill and Payment Tracking

Accounts payable records help businesses track bills received, amounts owed, due dates, and payments made.

Confirm whether Anchor actually pays bills on behalf of clients before adding bill-payment claims.

Organized General Ledger Records

The general ledger contains the detailed financial entries used to prepare business reports.

Regular maintenance can help reduce duplicate entries, uncategorized transactions, and account balance errors.

Bookkeeping Account Structure

A chart of accounts organizes business transactions into categories such as income, operating expenses, assets, liabilities, and owner equity.

New businesses or businesses with disorganized records may need account setup or restructuring.

Do not change an established chart of accounts without reviewing how prior reports and tax filings were prepared.

BOOKKEEPING CLEANUP

Help With Incomplete or Disorganized Books

Businesses often fall behind because of limited time, missing documents, software changes, staff turnover, or rapid growth.

Catch-up bookkeeping focuses on completing missing periods. Cleanup bookkeeping focuses on correcting records that were entered incorrectly or do not reconcile.

The work required depends on the number of accounts, transaction volume, missing records, affected months or years, and condition of the existing books.

Catch-Up Bookkeeping May Include

  • Entering missing transactions
  • Completing prior months
  • Organizing bank and card activity
  • Reviewing uncategorized transactions
  • Reconciling available accounts
  • Preparing records for tax filing
  • Creating missing monthly reports

Cleanup Bookkeeping May Include

  • Correcting duplicate entries
  • Reviewing incorrect categories
  • Fixing unreconciled balances
  • Reviewing owner transactions
  • Separating personal and business expenses
  • Correcting loan entries

BUSINESS REPORTS

Reports That Help You Review Business Activity

Monthly reports can help business owners review revenue, expenses, account balances, outstanding obligations, and cash movement.

Reports are prepared from the bookkeeping records available for the reporting period.

A profit and loss statement summarizes income and expenses over a selected period and shows whether the business recorded a profit or loss.

A balance sheet summarizes business assets, liabilities, and owner equity at a specific date.

A cash flow report helps show where cash came from and how it was used during the reporting period.

An accounts receivable aging report lists unpaid customer balances and groups them by how long they have been outstanding.

An accounts payable aging report lists unpaid vendor balances and expected due dates.

A general ledger report shows detailed activity within each bookkeeping account.

Custom reports may be available for selected business questions, departments, projects, products, or transaction categories.

Confirm the exact reporting options before publishing this service as standard.
