Our Mission is saving you Money.
​
NorthWest CPA & Tax is a firm that specializes in helping businesses and individuals save money. We are able to handle a wide array of services due to the fact we have so much experience in the business world.
CFO Services
We offer CFO virtual and onsite services that can help businesses during a time when the company does not have a CFO or can't afford one. Our CFO can come on-site or work remotely and provide training and service at a rate lower than having a full-time CFO. In this you will get an actual CFO with 15 years of CFO C-Level experience and is an active CPA. Not many CFO Services today are actual CPA's. Having your books accurate and correct will save you money in the long run.
Tax Services
Only a few expenses are as large as income taxes. For a C-Corporation, Federal and State income taxes combine can account for 21% of your profits. Not including state taxes. For pass-through entities such as S-Corporations, Limited Liabilities Companies, and Limited Partnerships, Federal and State income taxes can combine to account for up to 37% of your income.
In layman's terms, this means that as much as 37% of your earnings go to taxes. You get to keep the other 63%. We can hardly think of a larger business expense.
However, it doesn't always have to be that way. We have the know-how and expertise to assist you in achieving the lowest tax liability legally possible and maximum refund to the fullest extent permitted by law.
For Businesses
We start with a discussion of:
-
your business entity type (e.g. C-Corp, S-Corp, LLC)
-
tax treatment by the IRS
-
how it will impact your personal taxes
-
how to maximize the tax benefits of your entity type
-
and the pitfalls to avoid
We will give you a comparison of C-Corp, S-Corp, LLC tax attributes, explain their pros and cons, and see which one is most "tax efficient" for you. Are you in the right business entity type?
We will review tax deductions, recent tax law changes, and new tax strategies with you to see if you are currently employing all of them for maximum tax savings.
For new businesses, we will bring you up to speed on filing requirements, due dates, deadlines, and compliance requirements.
For Individuals
We prepare complex individual tax returns with rental properties, Schedule K-1s, business income and expenses, home office expenses, stock transactions, Restricted Stock Units (RSU), employee stock purchase plans (ESPP), incentive stock options (ISO), real estate transactions, 1031 exchanges, real estate professional status, qualified business income (QBI) deductions, alternative minimum tax (AMT), tax credits, and multistate tax returns.
