Year-end close and CPA handoff pack
Year-end close and CPA handoff pack from Finbryn closes and reconciles a US business's full-year books in QuickBooks Online or Xero, then hands the outside CPA or tax preparer a trial balance, fixed asset schedule, bank and loan reconciliations, and a memo on anything unusual, so the return starts from a checked file.
What is included
- A full-year trial balance reconciled through fiscal year end
- Every bank and loan account reconciled to third-party statements
- A fixed asset and depreciation schedule reconciled to the capitalization policy
- Prepaid expense and accrual schedules substantiated for the full year
- A written memo flagging anything material or unusual in the year
- A prior-year comparison with any significant swing explained
- Direct coordination with your outside CPA or tax preparer on document requests
- A handoff pack formatted for your preparer's existing workflow
The process
- 1.
Kickoff and scope confirmation
We confirm entity structure, current bookkeeping condition, and who the pack is going to (your existing preparer, a new one, or our own tax preparation support team).
- 2.
Full-year account reconciliation
Every balance sheet account is reconciled through fiscal year end, bank, loans, prepaids, and accruals included, not only the accounts touched monthly.
- 3.
Fixed asset and depreciation review
Assets capitalized during the year are confirmed against the capitalization policy and the depreciation schedule is reconciled to what was actually posted.
- 4.
Prior-year comparison
Every account is checked against last year, and any swing worth explaining gets a written note before the preparer has to ask.
- 5.
Handoff pack assembly
Trial balance, fixed asset schedule, reconciliations, and a memo on anything unusual are compiled into one package formatted for your preparer's workflow.
- 6.
Delivery and preparer coordination
The pack is delivered to your CPA or tax preparer directly if requested, and we stay available to answer questions while they work from it.
Software
