Testimonials

Finding Horne Finacial was truly a God send. We informed Stephanie of our situation and she handled our pain with such sincerity and compassion. Her professionalism was truly evident! My husband and I were dreading this appointment but during our time with Stephanie, was truly painless. She was so quick and suffient but also went over everything to make sure we understood the entire process. - Jennifer Lopes (Rohnert Park, CA)

I'm not a big fan of tax season. Who is? I never know if I'm going to owe money, or if I'm filling everything out correctly. Now I found Horne Financial Services and will never do my own taxes again. Stephanie was very helpful and made the experience stress free. She had all the right forms for firefighters, and got me more money back then I ever have before with the extra deductions. - William (Rohnert Park, CA)

I have been an income tax client of Stephanie since she started doing taxes in 2001, and I highly recommend her. She is always professional and her prices are very affordable. She is nice and personable, having a way with making a person feel comfortable and relaxed. I look forward to having my taxes done every year, and that is saying a lot! - Nancy(Sonoma, CA)

California Bookkeeper - Should I Hire a Bookkeeper?

"Should I hire a bookkeeper or do my own bookkeeping?"

That's a question I have heard many times working as a Staff Accountant for a local CPA firm here in Northern California.

It's amazing how often a business gets started without the owner(s) first answering this question, because the reality of being both a business owner and doing your own business books can be overwhelming if you're not well prepared.

With that being said, doing your own accounting could actually be the best thing for you to do! Just as long as you are well aware of all of the details that go into following the proper accounting procedures.

As a California bookkeeper myself, I had to decide whether or not to do my own books when I started my own home based bookkeeping business in 2001. Of course, I decided to do my own accounting. What I have found to be true throughout the years is that both business owners and professional accountants alike can always use some ongoing reliable help, accounting tips and guidance.

I've also learned that it's never too late to get help.

I prefer to take a proactive vs. reactive approach to tax services. By keeping current on new tax laws and legislation, I am in a position to identify key tax planning opportunities that minimize both your current and future tax liabilities.

Bookkeeping / Write-Up / Payroll
Meaningful, well-organized financial records ensure that your business operations will run more efficiently on a daily basis and are the foundation of a successful business. I can assist you with the day-to-day tasks associated with bookkeeping & Payroll.

Financial Statements
I can assist you in the preparation of your financial statements in accordance with professional standards, but express no opinion or any other form of assurance on the underlying information included in them. The financial statements produced can be a useful tool for management for making financial decisions.

Financial Forecasts & Projections
Forecasting is a necessity when trying to effectively manage and lead a business to profitability. From simple projections to complex financial modeling, I can assist you in achieving your company's financial goals.

A business can be profitable and still run into trouble due to cash flow issues. I can forecast and evaluate your company's financial condition, estimate financing requirements, and track cash-flow sources and uses.

Compilations
I view my role in the financial reporting process as an opportunity to provide constructive solutions for maximizing your company's profitability and efficiency. Compilations differ from reviews and audits as they are based upon client information provided and are used primarily for internal use only as no assurance is expressed.

California Bookkeeper - Ask a Bookkeeping Question

Are you having difficulties with your income taxes? Here on the Income Tax Questions page you can ask IRS tax questions, federal tax questions, and any other questions you may have about your income taxes. It's free and easy to do.

In response to the amount of questions I have been receiving via email, I decided to start this Income Tax Questions page to answer any questions you have about problems with your income taxes.

Rather than answering individual questions via email, this will give everyone a chance to read about problems that others are having too, and find out how to solve them. It will become a FAQ about Income Taxes.

The advice I give is only from my experiences, and I don't have experience with everything. So, please help me by also contributing to the answers.

This is a two way web page...you and me. You can ask a question, answer a question or do both.

Of course you can still contact me if you have a question that you feel would not benefit others or needs a personal response.
