Wine Country Accounting


		How Strong Is Your Business? WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME SOMEBODY CALLED YOU ABOUT BUYING THEIR BUSINESS OR SELLING YOU THEIR BUSINESS? How quickly could you move if you wanted to? THINK ABOUT IT. Are your books in good shape? Could you show someone an accurate financial statement if they asked for one? (That is, if you would even consider showing your books to anybody). This is what we do. We help businesses organize and maintain their accounting records and strategically plan their business so they know how much money they’re making, or not. More importantly, we help our clients with tax planning, cash flow forecasts and in preparing budgets that eliminate surprises. We do a lot of other things too, but the end goal is that your business could grow by acquisition if it saw a competitor it wanted to buy, or look strong enough that someone else might want to buy it from you. Read through the following (tedious) questions and see how many you can answer. If you have trouble answering any of them, please contact us.
