ACCOUNTING and BOOKKEEPING SERVICES
Breathe easier knowing that your accounting and bookkeeping are in expert, experienced hands.
Wilkinson Cooley helped train a small business owner on doing her bookkeeping. As the process became less confusing, she began to enjoy bookkeeping. And she knew Wilkinson Cooley was just a phone call away for questions, and that we would help her with additional accounting adjustments she needed for correct financial statements.

Another business owner realized, in late January, that he needed to complete and mail his 1099s by the end of the month. He called us to see if we could do it for him. We told him "no problem." In a fraction of the time it would have taken him, and at very little cost to him, we prepared his 1099s and all the other requisite IRS forms, and mailed them. He was quite relieved to have them mailed on time.

Does your bookkeeper fully understand the principles of accounting? If you're not a seasoned accountant yourself, you may not know. Anybody can call themselves a bookkeeper. But with Wilkinson Cooley, you'll know you have CPAs with years of experience as accountants making sure your bookkeeping and accounting is done correctly.

What would make your life easier? We can prepare your monthly and quarterly payroll tax returns as well as your year-end W-2s, W-3s, 1099s, 1096s, and 940s. And we can help you deal with IRS notices, getting set up on EFTPS, and dealing with required changes. Plus, we have years of experience doing monthly bank reconciliation and bookkeeping -- even in QuickBooks via the Internet -- and we perform these services regularly for a number of our clients.

Let our team of certified, experienced accountants take these tasks off your hands so you can focus on building your business. We can train you, too, and help you find ways to streamline your accounting procedures. Those are just a few ways we can make your life easier.
