New Hampshire basics

## What New Hampshire businesses deal with

The state has no general sales tax. It does tax meals and rooms, at 8.5%.

No sales tax does not mean no filings. New Hampshire businesses still deal with business taxes, meals and rooms tax, and often with sales tax owed in neighboring states.

### New Hampshire items we keep your books ready for

- Meals and rooms tax returns for restaurants, lodging and similar businesses
- The Business Profits Tax and the Business Enterprise Tax, which are the state's main business taxes
- Unemployment reports for employees, since the state has no state income tax on wages and so no state withholding
- The annual report to the Secretary of State
- Sales tax in other states, if you sell to customers in Massachusetts, Maine or Vermont

How it works

## Remote, and upfront about it

The desk is in Cranford, New Jersey, and the work is done online. We do not have an office near you, and we say so up front. You get the same monthly bookkeeping, kept in software that belongs to you.

- You give us access to your accounting file and bank and card feeds
- We clean up past months if needed, with a written quote first
- Each month we categorize, reconcile and close by a set date
- You get monthly reports and a person to ask about them

Beyond the books

## Books show last month. Planning looks ahead

Once the books are current, the useful questions change. Can New Hampshire owners afford the next hire, the new truck or the second location, and what will the bank want to see first? That is financial planning, and it only works on accurate records.

Fractional CFO support is a few hours a month of senior financial attention instead of a full-time hire. It sits on top of your monthly books. For tax returns, audits or legal questions we work alongside your CPA or attorney, and we are not a CPA firm.

### What that can include

- A budget and a monthly look at budget versus actual
- Preparation for bringing in a partner, selling or an outside review
- A one-page dashboard of the five or six numbers you steer by
