Beyond the books ## When you need more than books After reconciled books comes the harder part: using them. For Fanwood owners that can mean a cash forecast for the next quarter, a budget, or a package ready for a lender. It is planning and reporting on the books we keep, delivered at the size your business needs. It does not replace your CPA. Tax returns are a separate service (see /tax-preparation); we do not audit statements or give legal advice. ### What that can include - Preparation for bringing in a partner, selling or an outside review - A rolling 13-week cash flow forecast, so a slow month is not a surprise - Pricing and margin review by job, product or customer [How fractional CFO support works →](/bookkeeping/guides/what-is-a-fractional-cfo) The local economy ## What Fanwood businesses deal with A downtown development plan earned a 2014 New Jersey Future Smart Growth Award. ### New Jersey items we track for you Sales tax, quarterly payroll reports, the annual report and 1099-NEC and W-2 support at year-end.

State fees are paid separately. **How much does it cost?** Pricing starts at $450 per month for the smallest tier and scales with the number of transactions.
