Beyond the books
When you need more than books
After reconciled books comes the harder part: using them. For Brookfield owners that can mean a cash forecast for the next quarter, a budget, or a package ready for a lender.
The idea is simple: finance help on a part-time basis, built on current books. We coordinate with your CPA or attorney for anything that needs a license, such as tax returns, attest work or legal questions.
What that can include
- Preparation for bringing in a partner, selling or an outside review
- Pricing and margin review by job, product or customer
- A budget and a monthly look at budget versus actual
