Bookkeeping services for Austin businesses
If you run a business in Austin and the books are a month behind, you're in a common spot. Receipts pile up, the bank feed never quite matches, and the tax deadline arrives before the numbers do. Unicorn Consulting closes your books every month, so the figures are ready when your CPA or you need them.
What monthly bookkeeping covers
Your bookkeeper sets up your accounts and chart of accounts, or migrates them from your current system. After that, the monthly work is bank and credit card reconciliation, recording income and expenses, tracking fixed assets and depreciation, payroll accounting, and keeping receivables and payables current.
The output is financial statements, a cash flow view with forecasting, and reports built around the numbers you actually look at.

Unicorn Consulting provides bookkeeping as a monthly service, so an Austin owner isn't hiring for it.
