Trial balance or QuickBooks export in, a reviewer-ready business-return workbook out: every account mapped to a return line, the prior year tied, basis and capital rolled, and a Data Entry tab in return-line order.
The Bridge tab maps each client account to a return line to the penny, with a maps-to key and the preparer's adjustments shown separately. Income statement and balance sheet leads run line by line against the prior year, and Schedule L carries an explicit unreconciled row, never a plug.
M-1 with a live rounding row, the AAA roll, and stock and debt basis in separate columns, with a K-1 preview for each owner. Depreciation ties the prior schedule to the report and adds the year's assets under current bonus rules. Want a separate Form 7203 tab? Set it once in your firm's conventions.
Cash versus accrual matched to the return's method. Related-party items, 2% shareholder health insurance, reasonable compensation and 1099-K reconciliation. Cross-entity impacts are called out so the owners' 1040s pick them up.
The prior-year return and the year's books: a trial balance, P&L and balance sheet, or a QuickBooks or Xero export, plus any schedules the client keeps.
From $99 per 1120-S, 1065 or 1120 workbook, priced by the size of the return. Your first workbook is free with your firm's email.
No. It takes the books as given, ties them to the return and flags what doesn't tie. Reconciling the client's bookkeeping stays a separate engagement.
