Regardless of size, filing taxes is a yearly event for every business. Did you know your small business tax preparation cost can be more expensive than you calculated? The costs vary greatly, from a couple of hundred dollars to thousands of dollars. Several factors contribute to the cost of filing federal taxes. That is why there is no definite answer of how much small business tax preparation will cost you. Below are some typical costs and additional costs for tax preparation for your small business.
Typical Costs
Some of the typical costs associated with tax preparation for small businesses includes administrative services. These are often considered the most expensive costs according to the National Small Business Association (NSBA). Of course, these charges will vary depending on the complexity and size of the business. The frequency of preparation also plays a part in determining the costs. For example, preparing monthly, quarterly and annual payroll tax forms have different fee schedules. Moreover, your ability to keep accurate records along with your tax preparation methods can also determine the administrative fees you pay. At Halon, we offer three packages, none of which exceed $559. To help save you even more time and money, we also offer bookkeeping and more.
Additional Costs
While you might know and prepare for the typical costs such as administrative costs, the additional costs can sneak up on you. Depending on the tax preparer you choose, you might find that they also charge for minor additional services. For instance, they could bill you at a full hourly rate for phone calls and questions beyond a set amount. If you have a lot of questions, this could add up quickly. You want to have your financial records and questions as organized as possible in order to minimize these fees.
At Halon, our software can prepare your tax returns from several bookkeeping options. For example, if you use QuickBooks Online, you can provide our team access to the software and most of the work will be done automatically. Likewise, Xero software works in the same manner if you use Halon.
