Monthly Bookkeeping

Every Mess Has a Beginning. We Find It & Fix It.

Our monthly bookkeeping services keep your financial records accurate, organized, and current throughout the year. We record and categorize transactions, maintain account activity, perform reconciliations, review financial data for inconsistencies, and provide regular financial reporting tailored to your business—giving you dependable books and a clearer understanding of your financial position.

The DeYoung & Smith Advantage

Maybe you've been busy running your business and bookkeeping kept getting pushed to next week. Then next week became next month—and suddenly you're staring at a year's worth of transactions. It happens. Don't spend another weekend trying to untangle it yourself. Give us what you have, tell us where things left off, and we'll help get your books cleaned up, caught up, and back under control.

Catch up & Clean Up

No Surprises. No Loose Ends.

Whether your books are several months behind or simply need correcting, our Clean-Up & Catch-Up services are designed to restore accuracy and organization to your financial records. We review existing transactions, account classifications, reconciliations, balances, and supporting information; identify and correct discrepancies; and bring your bookkeeping current so you can move forward with reliable financial information.

The DeYoung & Smith Advantage

You started your business to do what you're good at—not to spend Sunday night categorizing transactions in QuickBooks. We'll take care of the books, keep everything organized, and let you know when something needs your attention. You run your business. We'll help keep the numbers behind it running smoothly.

Financial Reporting

The Numbers Always Tell a Story.

Accurate financial reporting transforms everyday bookkeeping data into meaningful business information. We prepare clear, organized financial reports that provide insight into your revenue, expenses, profitability, cash flow, assets, liabilities, and overall financial position—giving you reliable information to understand performance, identify trends, and make informed business decisions.

The DeYoung & Smith Advantage

Running a business without good financial reports is a little like driving without a dashboard. You may be moving, but you don't really know how fast you're going, how much fuel you have left, or whether that warning light is something you should worry about. We'll help turn all those numbers into information you can actually understand and use.

Bank & Credit Card Reconciliation

The Statements Have One Story. The Books Have Another. We Find the Truth Between Them.

Regular bank and credit-card reconciliation is an essential part of maintaining accurate financial records. We compare your bookkeeping records against actual bank and credit-card statements, identify missing, duplicated, incorrectly recorded, or unmatched transactions, investigate discrepancies, and make appropriate corrections so your account balances accurately reflect the underlying financial activity.

Quick Books Set-Up & Optimization

The Right Set Up Makes All the Difference.

A reliable bookkeeping system begins with the proper foundation. Our QuickBooks Online Setup service helps configure your account around the way your business actually operates, including your chart of accounts, banking and credit-card connections, account settings, categories, opening balances, and other essential bookkeeping functions. The result is an organized system designed to produce cleaner records and more meaningful financial information from the start.

The DeYoung & Smith Advantage

QuickBooks is a great tool, but clicking through the setup screens doesn't necessarily mean it's set up correctly for your business. And little mistakes at the beginning can turn into big headaches later. We'll help get things organized properly from day one so you aren't six months down the road wondering why your reports don't make any sense.

Forensic Accounting

When Money Leaves a Trail, We Find the Answers.

When financial records raise questions, our forensic accounting services provide a deeper level of examination. Drawing upon years of forensic accounting and investigative experience, we analyze financial records, transactions, account activity, transfers, supporting documentation, and other available evidence to identify discrepancies, trace funds, reconstruct financial activity, and develop a clearer understanding of what occurred and how the financial records support those findings.

The DeYoung & Smith Advantage

Sometimes you look at the numbers and something just doesn't feel right. Maybe money is missing, balances don't make sense, transactions can't be explained, or you simply need to know what happened. That's when ordinary bookkeeping isn't enough. We dig deeper, follow the transactions, connect the pieces, and help you understand what the financial records are actually telling you.
