The Year End Business Accounting Checklist

$0.00

Tax season is easy when the books are already closed, and painful when they are not. I built this checklist to walk you through the year end close one month at a time, so by February your tax preparer has everything they need and you already know your numbers.

  • October: get the books current and clean

  • November: plan taxes while you can still change the outcome

  • December: make your final moves before December 31

  • January: close the year and file your information returns

  • February to April: hand off a complete packet and file on time

27 steps · 10 pages · For sole proprietors, LLCs, S corporations, partnerships, and nonprofits
