QuickBooks Online, Xero, Bill.com, Gusto, Dext, Hubdoc and Karbon. Every accountant completes the QuickBooks Online ProAdvisor and Xero Advisor certifications before working on client files.
Using something else? We'll train on it during the first month.
What stays with your firm
- Responsibility for your clients' financial statements
- Audit sign-offs and professional opinions
- Tax return preparation, which needs each taxpayer's consent before it can be done outside the US
Nonprofit bookkeeping
Nonprofit books follow different rules from a small business. For your nonprofit clients, we:
- Keep a nonprofit chart of accounts in QuickBooks Online, with classes or locations for programs and grants
- Separate activity with and without donor restrictions, and record releases from restriction as conditions are met
- Track grant budgets against actual spending
- Prepare the schedules behind the statement of functional expenses
- Reconcile every bank and card account monthly and flag unusual transactions
Priced like any other role: from $1,800 a month per bookkeeper, or $2,400 for a staff accountant.
Common questions
Where are your accountants?
In our office in Monrovia, Liberia, where English is the official language. Monrovia runs on GMT, so their day overlaps the US morning and early afternoon.
What hours do they work?
Monday to Friday, 8 am to 5 pm US Eastern time, unless we agree different hours with you. Monrovia runs on GMT, so that is 12 pm to 9 pm in Monrovia while the US is on daylight time, and 1 pm to 10 pm in winter. Your accountant is online for your morning stand-ups and month-end calls.
What if the accountant isn't a fit?
In the first 30 days we replace them free. After that, tell us and we'll work out a replacement within two weeks.
How do you handle our clients' data?
Inside your systems only, on managed company laptops. Read our security approach.
