Bookkeeping in Washington
Monthly close by business day 5, reconciled bank and card accounts, and financials you can hand to a lender without apologising for them.
Washington has no personal income tax but it does have B&O, and the classification you book revenue under is a bookkeeping decision, not a tax-season one.
From $450/mo (Essentials)
What you get every month
- Categorised transactions and reconciled accounts every month
- P&L, balance sheet and cash flow package
- Clean-up of prior-period books before we go live
- A named lead accountant, not a rotating queue
What makes Washington bookkeeping different
- Revenue tagged to the right B&O classification in the ledger as it is booked — service, retailing, wholesaling — so the excise return is a report rather than a reconstruction.
- Multiple classifications kept separate for businesses that both sell goods and bill services, which is where most Washington filings go wrong.
- Retail sales tax collected and remitted by destination, tracked alongside the B&O classification it belongs to.
- Department of Revenue excise filings prepared from the same books we close, on the frequency the state assigned you.
- City B&O returns for Seattle, Tacoma and other local jurisdictions supported where your activity requires them.
