How Much Do Small Business Accountants Cost?
An accountant typically charges between $150 to $400 and upwards per hour. The rate would vary on a few factors depending on the type of task or transaction, the size of the firm, the experience of the accountant, and where they are located.
It also depends on how the service provider structures the cost of the service. Some providers charge based on revenue while some will charge a flat rate with additional variable costs. If the accountant also has to provide bookkeeping services, there will also be additional charges.
Why Do Businesses Need Professional Accounting Services?
Most business owners need to learn accounting on their own but they are limited in the basic processes. As the business grows, business owners would need more help to stay financially healthy and compliant with tax, VAT returns, payroll and so on.
Professional accounting services can help businesses with advising on the best company structure, help you improve cash flow optimise taxes and make sure your accounting processes are effective.
