A professional reviewing business finances

Accounting Done™ refers to a unified platform for bookkeeping, invoicing, cash flow management and year-end reporting for businesses offered by Escalon. Our highly trained accounting professionals will expertly manage all of your business’s accounting requirements without the expense of hiring a similar in-house team.

The goal of Escalon’s accounting services team is to ensure that your business's books are in balance and error-free. Our professionals take care of everything accounting-related, from bank reconciliation and general ledger management to financial reporting. They will also seamlessly integrate automation into your systems. All you have to do is review and approve their work.

Accounting Done™ comprises the following four elements:

GL management

A properly maintained general ledger is the cornerstone of precise, timely financial records. Our accounting experts will create an accurate account of your general ledgers using monthly reconciliation and reviews of key accounts. We will also implement and provide you with recommended changes.

Our GL management process entails:

Opening/closing accounting periods.
Recording accounting activities for the period’s end.
Accruals, adjustments and closeout.

The accounting team will review and analyze the GL ledger trial balance for abnormal and inappropriate balances or any discrepancies. At this point, we aim to take corrective actions in your financial records. Also, we will analyze trial balance relationships and develop controls to ensure the integrity of your financial statement data.

Reconciliation

Under Escalon’s Accounting Done™ services, our accounting experts will review your bank statements to confirm that transactions align with your balance sheet to make sure there are no discrepancies, errors or fraud. In doing so, we ensure your data remains secure and confidential.

Budget versus actual

Our accounting experts will analyze your company’s spending behaviors and revenue generation methods to ensure that you meet financial forecast projections. We identify areas over or under budget and assess whether you can, or should, hire additional employees.

Your Accounting Done™ associate will also prepare monthly reports and review financial statements to determine business areas that are not meeting expectations and require further investigation.

Reporting

Our accounting team will keep you apprised of the health of your business with detailed financial reporting. We accomplish this by preparing your monthly financial reports including income statements and balance sheets, so you’re aware of transactions, cash flow and reconciliations.
