How can business planning help?
A business plan sets goals, tests the numbers and gives you something to measure. The SBA says a good business plan guides you through each stage of starting and managing your business. Wallace CPA helps you build projections from your real records. Read our guide on starting a business in Texas.
What is a part-time CFO?
A part-time CFO gives you regular financial leadership without a full-time hire. That can include monthly reviews of results, budgets, forecasts and talks about next steps. Wallace CPA works with your books, so the reports stand on current numbers. See small business accounting for the records behind them.
How do I manage cash flow?
Cash flow is the timing of money coming in and going out. A profit can still leave you short if customers pay slowly or taxes come due at once. We build a simple forecast, check tax payment dates and look at what drives the gaps. The small business tax calendar lists payment dates to plan around.
How do I prepare for bank financing?
Lenders usually ask for financial statements, tax returns and a plan. We help organize those records and explain what they show. The SBA says its guaranteed loans are delivered by lenders, and that businesses must be creditworthy and show a reasonable ability to repay. We cannot promise a loan.
How should I plan for succession?
Succession planning decides who runs or owns the business when you step back. The tax side includes how a transfer is taxed and what records the buyer needs. An attorney handles the legal documents. We cover the tax and financial side and work with your attorney.
What is a business valuation?
A business valuation estimates what a business is worth for a purchase, sale, buy-sell agreement or estate matter. The purpose changes the method. Wallace CPA can explain the process and the numbers that feed it. Ask us first about your purpose.
