Bookkeeping Prices

I understand that every business is different when it comes to bookkeeping requirements and budget. For this reason, I will do my best to find a price plan that will suit your needs. I can offer fixed price bookkeeping or hourly bookkeeping. I normally recommend starting on an hourly rate until your paperwork is all up to date.

• Fixed Fee: After an initial period of getting to know you and your business, I can arrange a fixed fee payable monthly, quarterly, or yearly. This can vary depending on the size of your business and how frequently you would like my help. Having a fixed fee allows you, the customer, to know what you will be paying and help with your budgeting. Fees are reviewed every 6 months.
• Hourly Rate: If you have a business where the number of transactions to be processed can vary significantly from one month to another, for example, seasonal fluctuations, then an hourly rate may be best suited to you. Rates are currently 20 an hour. So, one month may be higher than the next due to volume of work required.

Software

At GM Bookkeeping, I mainly use an accounts package called VT Transaction+. I can produce profit and loss statements, balance sheets, reconciliations, and more so that you, the customer, can see how your business is doing. If you want some control of your own accounts, you can install this software on your own system and I can review it as and when needed. Other accounting packages that I have experience of include SAGE Cloud and Xero.
