Reliable accounting gives you real numbers to run your business, not gut feelings. Accurate income and expense tracking helps you see which products or services produce the best profit margins, where pricing needs adjustment, and which costs are quietly eating your cash flow. Clean books also reduce tax-time stress and lower the risk of IRS issues that can turn into expensive penalties. Lenders typically want clear financial statements before approving a loan or line of credit, so solid reporting can directly impact your ability to expand. Strong accounting turns day-to-day transactions into decision-ready insight that supports steady, scalable growth.

Year-round tax planning is how our Camas team supports businesses, not just return prep once a year. A review of your structure can uncover whether moving from a sole proprietorship to an S-Corporation could reduce self-employment taxes. Strategy around equipment purchases can be timed to capture deductions like Section 179 when it matters most. Estimated quarterly payments are calculated using your real income so you avoid surprises and underpayment penalties. When filing season arrives, returns are prepared accurately for your business entity, deductions are claimed properly, and e-filing keeps the process efficient. Clear explanations are provided in Spanish or English so your questions about credits, deductions, and compliance are fully answered.

Complete transaction tracking is handled, including revenue, expenses, accounts payable, and accounts receivable. Monthly reconciliation of bank and credit card statements helps catch errors early and adds a layer of protection against fraud. Expenses are categorized correctly so deductions are organized and defensible. Reporting includes monthly profit-and-loss statements that break down revenue, cost of goods sold, operating costs, and net income. Balance sheets show assets, liabilities, and owner equity, while cash-flow reporting highlights the timing of money coming in and going out. Reports are delivered with plain-language context so performance is easy to understand and easier to act on.

Full payroll support is available, including processing for businesses of any size. Gross pay is calculated correctly for regular hours, overtime, bonuses, and commissions. Required withholdings are handled, including federal income tax, Social Security, Medicare, state income tax, and any applicable local taxes. Direct deposit can run on your preferred schedule, whether weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly. Quarterly IRS filings like Form 941 are completed, payroll tax returns are submitted, and year-end W-2s for employees and 1099s for contractors are prepared. Tracking for paid sick leave, vacation accruals, and benefit deductions is managed to keep payroll consistent and compliant.

An Individual Taxpayer Identification Number is used for tax filing when a Social Security number is not available. ITINs are issued by the IRS for non-resident business owners with U.S. income, foreign investors in U.S. companies, dependents of visa holders, and spouses filing joint returns with U.S. citizens. Operating a U.S.-connected business without an SSN often requires an ITIN for tax compliance and can help with practical needs like setting up business banking. Progreso Tax supports ITIN applications and renewals by preparing the paperwork, organizing required documentation, and submitting the application properly to reduce delays and avoid preventable rejections.
