Tax Planning & Education 

​

Preparing your own tax return can be extremely difficult with today's complex tax code and may often leave you with more questions than answers.

​

These days, the majority of people and small businesses use a professional tax preparer to assist with the preparation of taxes. Even if you are just filing a simple return, the rules may change from year to year and it is easy to overlook these changes and submit an incorrect return. By doing your taxes yourself, you may also end up overlooking deductions and credits.

​

At PP&A, we have the expertise that is needed to help you file your returns while also helping you to minimize your tax liability with careful planning.

​

Our tax preparation services include:

​

• Individual Tax Preparation

• Business Tax Return Preparation

In addition to making sure that your business is tax compliant, we also can suggest tax-saving strategies that will maximize your after-tax income. We offer tax and education planning to assist start-ups, as well as, established businesses.

​

We’ll also assist you with tax planning by:

​

• Helping you to defer income so that you can save money now and pay less taxes in the future

• Lowering taxes on your income so that you can keep more of your earnings

• Lowering taxes on your estate and gifts so that the beneficiaries can keep more of what you have given

If you own a small business or need help with individual taxes, working with a professional tax planning service can help save you more money. PP&A offers the expertise that you need to save on your taxes at affordable prices.

 

If you are struggling with keeping up with the bookkeeping tasks for your business, you need to hire a professional. If you can’t afford the services of a full-time accountant but would enjoy the expertise that comes along with one, PP&A can help.
