What to watch for
Bookkeeping in Georgia
Georgia sales tax rates vary by location, so we record where each sale lands. Your tax professional will ask.
The Georgia Department of Revenue sets sales tax returns monthly for most taxpayers, due the 20th of the month after the reporting period, and a return is still required in a month with no sales. We confirm the rate for your location and your schedule on your own Georgia Tax Center account.
Official sources: Georgia Department of Revenue and the Georgia Secretary of State. Rules and rates change, so we confirm the current ones for your account.
What we handle for Georgia owners
- Monthly sales and use tax returns, due the 20th, prepared for you to file
- The annual registration with the Secretary of State, due April 1 (the Secretary of State lists a $60 fee and a $25 late penalty)
- Withholding and unemployment insurance reports for employees
- Records for local sales taxes that depend on where you sell
Beyond the books
When you need more than books
Records tell you where the money went. A business in Georgia that is growing, carrying debt or running tight on cash also needs to know where it is going, and when a slow month will hurt.
It is planning and reporting on the books we keep, delivered at the size your business needs. It does not replace your CPA. Tax returns are a separate service (see /tax-preparation); we do not audit statements or give legal advice.
What that can include
- Loan, line of credit and payoff scenarios
- Hiring and equipment decisions modeled before you commit
- A one-page dashboard of the five or six numbers you steer by
