Jerry L. Walker, CPA is a public accountant dedicated to providing solutions
to the challenges faced by small businesses on a daily basis. We assist small
business owners in defining their short and long term goals and identifying the steps
required to achieve those goals.
In order for small businesses to be successful, it is imperative that
owners have the necessary information to make wise business decisions. It is also
essential that owners know how to interpret the information they have.
We strive to educate small businesses on the relevant aspects of
bookkeeping, payroll tax, income tax, regulatory requirements and computer systems.
We assist businesses in evaluating whether they should perform their accounting internally
or if they should outsource their accounting function to a third party.
If it is most advantageous for a business to perform their accounting
internally, we assist them in the selection, installation, and implementation of a
computerized accounting system. We are experienced with most of the accounting
packages used by small to medium sized businesses. Our experience provides us with
the ability to help the business decide which package most appropriately meets their
needs. We can assist the business in selecting reliable name brand computer hardware
which will meet their long term business needs. We do not recommend hardware which
is "bleeding edge" nor outdated. We are aware of the service and
reliability ratings of each major computer manufacturer. We can install the computer
hardware and software, including setting up a peer-to-peer network if necessary. We
train the business' employees on how to effecitively use the accounting software and
provide management with accurate financial information on a timely basis. If the
business has a need for financial or operating information which is not available through
an existing software package, our firm is prepared to design and program a custom database
solution to meet that specific need.
If it most advantageous for the business to outsource the accounting
function, our firm is ready to provide full bookkeeping services including data
entry, bank reconciliation, payroll processing, check printing, regulatory reporting
and compiled financial statements.
