Qualified bookkeepers are detail-oriented, thorough, exact and precise. They are also up to date with changes to CRA taxation regulations.

Consider the following questions you might have:

• Am I recording or charging the GST correctly?
• Are my employee benefits taxed (or not) properly?
• Should I be charging PST on my services?
• How do I figure out my vehicle expenses if I use my car for business sometimes?
• Can I write off a portion of the cost of the vehicle?
• Am I paying too much (or too little) tax? Am I sure?
• Do I account for only 50% of the GST on meals and entertainment?
• Can I write off the Christmas party?
• How do I figure out my costs if I work from a home office?
• Could deducting those costs affect my principal residence exemption?
