Catch-up and cleanup bookkeeping

Months behind? It's more common than you think, and it's fixable. Catch-up is $300 per account for each month behind, and you'll know the total before we start.

Or call 901-907-2903. Zack and Caitlyn pick up.

How catch-up pricing works

Multiply the number of accounts by the number of months behind, then by $300. Two accounts that are six months behind is 2 × 6 × $300 = $3,600.

The same math covers cleanup, when the books were kept but kept wrong. We count the months that need to be redone.

How a catch-up goes

  • We gather statements for every account and month
  • We reconcile each month in order, oldest first
  • We clear uncategorized transactions and fix anything posted to the wrong place
  • You get a profit and loss and a balance sheet for the whole period
  • Then we keep it current with monthly bookkeeping, if you want

If you're behind on taxes too

Catch-up gets you the numbers. Filing late returns is a job for a CPA or enrolled agent, and clean books make that job faster and cheaper. We'll coordinate with whoever you use.

Frequently asked questions

How much does catch-up bookkeeping cost?

$300 per bank or card account for each month behind. We quote the total before we start.

What if I don't have all my receipts?

Bank and card statements are the starting point. Receipts help, but missing a few doesn't stop a catch-up. We'll tell you which ones matter most.

Do I have to sign up for monthly bookkeeping after?

No, but most people want to stay caught up. If you do, prepaying the year waives the setup fee.
