Year-Round Business Tax Planning Services
with Chatterton & Associates
As a business owner, you may feel pulled in several different directions, unable to have the time or energy to focus on crucial financial and tax planning decisions. Unlike most tax preparation firms, we focus on tax planning throughout the year, help you prepare, and keep you on track – answering your concerns and questions whenever you need us. By integrating tax planning advice with wealth management strategies, your business can have multiple avenues for growth.
We look at the past, present, and future to provide strategic tax advice and help take your business where you want it to be.
During tax season
We prepare Schedule C, 1120-S, and 1120-C corporate tax returns. We carefully verify all numbers are entered and in the appropriate location on the tax return.
Have untapped deductions?
Our CPAs review your last year’s corporate tax returns to identify any missed tax reduction opportunities, and help you with a tax efficient entity selection.
Where do you want to be in the future?
Your company’s future taxable income is forecasted to see what your company tax situation is now vs where you might want it to be before the end of year. We can run multiple tax scenarios for your business to help intentionally decide which strategy is right for you.
Why hire a professional to do your taxes?
Taxes can be complicated. Depending on your personal situation, hiring a tax professional allows you to ensure that no tax savings opportunities are missed, and that you also aren’t paying more in taxes than you need to. Mistakes on tax returns can be costly – especially if they lead to an IRS audit! Chatterton’s enrolled agents and CPAs will review your tax information thoroughly and help answer any questions that you may have.
We can assist you with:
- 1040 Tax Returns or Federal Tax Returns
- Amended Tax Returns
- Out of State & Multi-State Returns
- Trust and Estate Returns
- Gift Tax Returns
