What our Non-Profit clients say
Nonprofit & Church Accounting FAQs
What makes nonprofit accounting different from business accounting? Nonprofits track money by fund and by donor restriction, report on different financial statements, and answer to boards, donors, and grantors rather than owners. Your accounting system needs to be set up for that from the start.
​
Can you help a brand-new 501(c)(3)? Yes. We regularly help new nonprofits set up their chart of accounts, reporting, and financial policies so they're ready for grants and donors from day one.
​
Do you work with churches outside Tennessee? Yes. We work remotely with churches and ministries anywhere in the U.S. Our current clients include organizations in Washington state.
​
How much does nonprofit bookkeeping cost? Bookkeeping starts at $300 a month for organizations with annual budgets under $250,000, including fund accounting and monthly giving reconciliation. Board-ready reporting and year-end donor statement review start at $450, and advisory plans at $1,300 and $2,500. Form 990-EZ preparation starts at $500 and the full Form 990 at $750. You'll get a clear quote after a free consultation, with no hidden fees.
​
Do you perform audits? We don't perform audits, but we prepare your books and schedules so your audit goes faster and costs less.
