What Is Included in Monthly Bookkeeping?

Monthly bookkeeping is the ongoing process of recording, reviewing and reconciling your business's financial activity so your books remain current throughout the year.

  • Bank account reconciliation
  • Credit-card reconciliation
  • Loan and financing account reconciliation
  • Transaction categorization and review
  • Monthly payroll journal entries, when applicable
  • Review of unusual, duplicate or uncategorized transactions
  • Balance Sheet account review
  • Profit & Loss and Balance Sheet reporting
  • Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable review, when included in scope
  • Sales-tax bookkeeping support, when applicable
  • 1099 preparation and filing when included in the engagement, including bookkeeping review, preparation of applicable 1099 forms, and filing with the IRS and, where required, the State of New Jersey
  • Coordination with your CPA or tax preparer

The exact scope depends on your business, transaction volume and accounting requirements. The objective is straightforward: accurate, reconciled books every month so you and your CPA can rely on the numbers.

Our Monthly Service Boundaries

Clear responsibilities help keep the monthly close efficient.

Monthly reports

OneBooks works to complete the monthly close and provide financial reports by the 15th of the following month, assuming required client information and statements are received on time.

Payroll

OneBooks can record payroll activity in QuickBooks and reconcile related bookkeeping accounts. We do not run payroll and do not file payroll-tax returns.

Sales tax

OneBooks can maintain bookkeeping related to sales-tax activity when it is part of the engagement. We do not file sales-tax returns.

1099s

When included in the engagement, OneBooks reviews the relevant bookkeeping, prepares applicable 1099 forms and files them with the IRS and, where required, the State of New Jersey.

QuickBooks Online Bookkeeping for Passaic County Businesses

OneBooks focuses on QuickBooks Online. Connecting your bank accounts to QuickBooks is not the same thing as completing the bookkeeping. Bank feeds bring transactions into QuickBooks, but those transactions still need to be reviewed, categorized and reconciled.

Bank and Credit-Card Accounts

Accounts are reconciled against official statements. Differences are investigated rather than simply carried into the next month.

Loans and Financing

Loan payments are reviewed so principal, interest and other charges can be recorded appropriately.

Payroll

Payroll activity can be recorded through monthly journal entries so gross wages, payroll taxes, deductions and related balances are properly reflected in the books. OneBooks records payroll activity but does not run payroll or file payroll-tax returns.

Balance-Sheet Accounts

Balance Sheet accounts are reviewed because unexplained balances can affect the accuracy of financial statements and create problems at tax time.

Certified ProAdvisor Review

Completed monthly work is reviewed by a Certified ProAdvisor before reports are delivered.

How Much Does Monthly Bookkeeping Cost in Passaic County, NJ?

OneBooks monthly bookkeeping starts at $300 per month, and most small businesses pay between $300 and $700 per month.

$300–$700 per month

Typical range for most small businesses

Your exact monthly fee depends on factors including monthly transaction volume, number of bank and credit-card accounts, loans and merchant accounts, payroll activity, business structure, number of entities, sales-tax requirements, Accounts Receivable or Accounts Payable needs, industry-specific complexity and the condition of the existing QuickBooks file.

If the books are already behind

If your bookkeeping is already behind or your QuickBooks file contains significant errors, we may recommend completing a separate catch-up or cleanup project before monthly bookkeeping begins.

Why Passaic County Businesses Choose OneBooks

Nearby New Jersey Firm

OneBooks is based in Wyckoff, New Jersey, immediately adjacent to Passaic County.

U.S.-Based Bookkeeping Team

All client bookkeeping work is performed by OneBooks' U.S.-based staff.

QuickBooks Online Focus

OneBooks focuses its bookkeeping workflow on QuickBooks Online.

QuickBooks Online ProAdvisor Certification

Every OneBooks bookkeeper is required to earn QuickBooks Online ProAdvisor certification, and completed monthly work is reviewed by a Certified ProAdvisor before reports are delivered.

Monthly Reconciliations

Bank and credit-card reconciliations are an essential part of maintaining dependable books. A connected bank feed by itself does not mean the accounting is accurate.

CPA Coordination

You can keep your existing CPA or tax preparer. OneBooks handles the bookkeeping and can coordinate with your tax professional when necessary.

Why Monthly Bookkeeping Matters

Most serious bookkeeping problems start small. A transaction gets categorized incorrectly. A loan payment is posted entirely to an expense account. A credit-card account stops reconciling. A duplicate transaction remains in QuickBooks. Payroll liabilities accumulate incorrectly. A deposit is recorded twice.

One month becomes two months. Two months become six months. Eventually, the business owner or CPA discovers that the financial statements cannot be relied upon. Consistent monthly bookkeeping is designed to prevent those problems from accumulating.

Your Books Should Help You Run Your Business

Current bookkeeping isn't only about preparing a tax return. Your financial records should help answer questions such as:

  • Is the business profitable?
  • Are expenses increasing?
  • How much cash does the business have?
  • What does the business owe?
  • Are customers paying?
  • Are margins improving or declining?
  • Can the business afford another employee?
  • Can the business afford a major purchase?
  • Are the books ready for the CPA?

When bookkeeping is months behind, answering those questions becomes much more difficult. Monthly bookkeeping keeps your accounting current enough to support business decisions throughout the year.

Already Behind on Your Bookkeeping?

You don't need perfectly current books before contacting OneBooks. If your Passaic County business is several months or even several years behind, OneBooks can complete the necessary catch-up bookkeeping first.

If the bookkeeping has been entered but contains errors, unreconciled accounts, duplicates or unreliable balances, QuickBooks cleanup may be needed instead. Once the books are current and reliable, your business can transition into ongoing monthly bookkeeping.

Monthly Bookkeeping vs. Catch-Up vs. Cleanup

ServiceProblem It SolvesWhat Happens
Monthly BookkeepingBooks are current and need ongoing maintenanceTransactions are reviewed, accounts reconciled and financial reports prepared each month
Catch-Up BookkeepingMonths or years of bookkeeping haven't been completedMissing historical activity is reconstructed and reconciled
Cleanup BookkeepingBookkeeping exists but contains errors or unreliable balancesDuplicates, miscoding, reconciliation problems and Balance Sheet errors are corrected

Do I Need a Bookkeeper If I Already Have a CPA?

Often, yes. Your CPA and monthly bookkeeper generally perform different functions.

Your CPA

Typically handles tax returns, tax planning and specialized tax or accounting advice.

Your Bookkeeper

Maintains the underlying financial records your CPA relies upon.

When bookkeeping is maintained throughout the year, your CPA receives organized financial information rather than discovering bookkeeping problems when the tax return needs to be prepared. OneBooks is comfortable coordinating directly with your existing CPA or tax preparer.
