SERVICES FOR BUSINESSES
A Personal Approach to Business Services
The professionals of Vowells & Schaaf help you achieve financial goals by seamlessly combining all of your business and personal planning needs. That allows us to examine and work with your complete financial picture, not just a portion of it.
We view our role as much more than that of tax preparers and record keepers. Our professionals are available to help you with a wide variety of business and financial expertise. That’s why our partners devote a great deal of their time to person-to-person contact. We’ve learned that visiting our clients gives us a much better understanding of how their businesses operate and what we can do to help them.

Bookkeeping
Whether your business needs a simple system or a more complex network-based arrangement, our flexible approach helps us identify the ideal structure for you. We can handle all of your bookkeeping, just a portion of it, or develop a system that your employees can operate.

Business tax preparation and consulting
When most people think of taxes, they focus on the annual ritual of preparing tax returns. We do that for our clients, but it’s just one part of our tax services.
The Vowells & Schaaf approach to effective federal, state and local tax planning is a year-round process that considers every aspect of the business. We stay abreast of developments in tax laws and use innovative financial strategies to ensure that you pay the absolute minimum necessary within the law. Our professionals determine whether your type of business entity is the most tax-efficient and best meets your legal needs. We review purchases and other major transactions to identify the most favorable treatment under the tax laws.
Just as important, we take a holistic approach to planning, considering your personal financial situations when making recommendations for your business, which helps you keep more of what you earn.

Business valuation
Determining the value of a privately held business isn’t always an easy task, but accurate information may be critical in a number of situations, including a sale, acquisition, for estate planning or legal matters. Our approach to valuation assures that you’ll have accurate, useful information about your business in a timely manner.

Compilation and reviews
In addition to the traditional preparation of monthly, quarterly and year-end financial statements, you may have a need for pro forma statements to help you make a decision or analyze business conditions such as trends in cash flow. We can work with you to identify the financial reporting and process that best suits your needs.

Strategic planning and business advice
Our professionals have gained expertise both through counseling other clients and through their own experience in corporate America. We can bring you practical, proven solutions to the problems you face and innovative ideas to help you grow and refine your business.

A flexible approach to payroll
Today’s businesses can choose from many payroll service companies that promise lower costs and good service. But no two companies are exactly alike – and neither are their payroll needs.
That’s why Vowells & Schaaf takes a customized, flexible approach to your payroll. Our payroll team has broad-based experience, and can structure a program to meet your needs. We’ll handle direct deposit, electronic federal and state deposits, quarterly payroll reporting, W-2s, 1099s and all other aspects of your payroll requirements.
Because we’re accountants and not just payroll providers, we can also provide counsel regarding payroll and benefits issues and their effect on your bottom line, as well as specialized reports and other information to help you make better-informed decisions.
